What are these tweets all about?

It was like this a year ago when I left. I still maintain that CR is why I'm quite frequently an a-hole on this site. I can't seem to shake it. :smile:
I have absolutely no idea who was saying what in that twitter conversation. I'm so confused right now...
lyte is the same old condesecending ******* -- having a ******* match we Jscott again today --- the more things change
Paul blocked me on Twitter late last fall, when I went after him early in the basketball season because he was saying the team wasn't a NCAA tourney team (after the Drake loss I believe) and those of us that think so should stop drinking the Kool Aid. However he said it in such away that was so disrespectful that he actually deleted the tweet. When I gloated about him deleting the tweet, I got blocked. Eh...life goes on.
Oh, I guess now would be a good time to point out the Cyclones will be in the NCAA tournament.

Don't feel bad. He blocked me as well when I asked him if he was at the OK St fb game. He is quick on the ban trigger.

I'm no fan of CR.com, but I disagree about your point. Rivals is a pretty big network and there are and will continue to be people who are willing to pay for the content they provide, whether it's recruiting info/updates or "premium message boards".
I was a member over there for 7-8 years until recently. I feel like Paul got the number of subscribers he needed to pay the bills and then put the site on cruise control. Just enough stories to know it's there but really not worth paying for. Also, in Jan 2011 he wrote an article basically admitting he had been lazy and how things were going to change and those changes lasted about 2 weeks. I think it was called "Five for five" or something. I like Paul's work and liked the site, but there wasn't enough unique content to justify paying for.
let's not argue, let's just watch and see.................. http://www.investorplace.com/2012/02/yahoo-yhoo-only-weapon-against-facebook-litigation/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+InvestorPlace+%28InvestorPlace%29 to be successful rivals needs to morph to a social network that more closely involves the recruits themselves ........ no middle person is needed. It is probably too late.

It is good that Paul is not allowing copy and pasting of articles from this or other sites. On the other hand about a third of the dwindling content on CR has ISU Athletics listed as an author. Maybe he pays for those, or they are free to copy, I have no idea.

I agree. I'm a member over there (under a different handle). The premium message board doesn't do much for me. Yeah, you get some decent and more informed threads, but it's not much better than here and there definitely aren't as many voices or opinions. And I believe that this site does a decent job of keeping the worst hok trolls at bay.
I subscribe for the recruiting info. Not only the stories, but the videos. I LOVE following FB recruiting and that is far and away the best source for it. Maybe Rivals has lost some luster due to recruits posting on twitter and posting videos on youtube, but if you are just depending on those things, you are missing a ton of information. For $100 a year, the recruiting info is worth it for me.
