Yep, waiting for someone to paint his lawn with Roundup. Or burn his house down.next up Cousin Eddie fires up the RV and pays Mr. Higgins a home visit!
and not just marketing/payout for the university, but also draft position for the players. these stories in themselves are hypocritical. still glad they're getting written. any fool can see there is now a palpable conflict of interest present and he should never call another uk game again.It is easy writing for sports reporters to marginalize fans complaints about officials. No fan ever feels they are treated fairly so why not write a cute little story and dismiss the nutjobs? Officials can never be biased or corrupt right? Ask the NBA.
College basketball is BIG BUSINESS. It is BIG BUSINESS because the fans watch. A Final Four means millions to the university through payout and marketing. The fans spend thousands of dollars going to games and I as I wrote in another thread with the implied statement from the NCAA that the officials will be neutral and not biased. Look if Higgins is not biased against UK after seeing the calls against UCONN, Wisconsin and now UNC coupled with the body language and way he acts toward Coach Cal, then at best he is unqualified to be an official.
Heaven forbid someone from the media take a look at his record with UK. No it is easier to just meet your deadline by writing an article about the lunatic fan base.
you think people that post bs reviews get into trouble? lol.I don't know for sure but I would think posting a negative review about his business with no such dealing could result in legal ramifications. So I would say don't do it. Morally, take the high road. But that's just me.
I'm thinking TV Teddy. He craves attention. We can make him popular.Should we move on to Karl Hess next?

True story ... the town I live in. We have a facebook page that members can join, it's called Hip [insert city name]. So, people were posting on the page about this business that was doing some shady things. The owner of said business has opened a lawsuit, not sure against whom. Anyways, he is suing for some astronomical dollars because it has damaged his business. Maybe he is going after the folks who posted the damning information. Not sure. I'm also not sure if it will hold up. Just found it slightly related, and interesting.you think people that post bs reviews get into trouble? lol.

there's no way to police it in general is my point. and it's not policed. people receive bs reviews on yelp and a thousand other sites every day. do you know how hard that would be to police without a database for everyone's identity. even then not all reviewers reveal their identity. the website can't just reveal your identity necessarily either. and even THEN who is to say the person themselves logged on and wrote it and not someone else with access. you see where this goes. unless you have a video of you posting it under your info there is a tremendous lack of proof. going to go out on a limb and guess that owner won't win any suit.True story ... the town I live in.

Sad, makes an overall great and knowledgeable fan base look like gutter trash redneck yahoos. Anybody happy about this portrayal of UK fans is sadly deranged IMO. For the first time in my life actually ashamed to be associated with the BBN.
Not my first time, but I agree.Sad, makes an overall great and knowledgeable fan base look like gutter trash redneck yahoos. Anybody happy about this portrayal of UK fans is sadly deranged IMO. For the first time in my life actually ashamed to be associated with the BBN.
Regardless of how this turns out...i wonder if cal can use this in the future to prevent higgins from reffing our games. No way he can remain "unbiased" after this....you would think the ncaa would recuse him to prevent the appearance of any bias results

this writer is so naive. as if john higgins didn't ruin more than that sunday, and in year's past. and as if it didn't cost us money his ruining these games. just so naive.
also you have to prove they were or weren't a customer. and that the said things did or didn't happen. there's no law enforcement database that keeps track of this. the owner would have to provide the evidence themselves. and there is not a law stopping lies on the internet. as is there's really no way to guarantee integrity or prove intent. someone would just have to try really hard and work really closely with a lawyer, and hope the social media site would work with them and that the perpetrator's identity could be confirmed, as well as the actions themselves identified to the person.Slander and libel are extremely difficult to prove in court.
