Which begs the question, why the hell did he post PREMIUM info from the scout board over here?? Mark Miller posts here, if he wanted the info over here, he would have posted it. I hope Dodds figures out who you are over there, and bans you. That stuff is a NO NO.
Really? You honestly believe this is an over-reaction. Ridiculous.

Yeah - I'd say there was quite an overreaction!!  Let's hope this doesn't result in Hood not choosing Marquette due to someone posting premium information from the Scout site, on MUScoop.  Rodney, if you are reading our message boards, please realize the vast majority of MU fans are not this petty or lame.

You are acting like a 12 year old who had his lollipop stolen. Stop being so ridiculous about message board conduct.

It has nothing to do with affecting Rodney's decision. It has to do with the fact that YOU or whoever told you took info that is PAID for and posted it over here, for FREE. I said it before, if MM wanted the info posted here, he would have posted it here. People pay for that info for a reason. It's stealing.

I have a feeling I'll be banned, even though it wasn't me.....wait, I'm already banned for life.  Well, that will probably work out for everyone.  It's sort of like Texas Southern being put on 3 years probation for violations by Baylor.   ;D

Yep, and it's truly hilarious that people waste their money on that crap.  Premium boards are a joke.

You are entitled to your opinion, but it still doesn't dismiss the fact that the OP STOLE from premium subscribers at scout. I don't know if he has kids or not, but if he does, would he tell his kids that it's ok, to take something that doesn't belong to them?? I sure hope not. I would hope they are better then their father's example.

Dodds threatened to tell ESPN that I was posting videos of game highlights on scoop, but he said if I posted them over at his site instead he would be able to work out a deal allowing me to do it.

I kept posting the videos here and nothing ever came of his threats.

I'm all for stealing that asshat's premium content.

You aren't stealing HIS premium content you little ass clown, you are stealing from the people that pay for it's content. You know, fellow MU fans. Classy. Way to represent MU in a honorable way.  ::)

You put it on the internet you should expect it to get stolen, leaked, etc. This isnt a patent infringement, its someone's words that were openly put on the internet.

Edit:  I've edited out a piece of this .. may be somewhat slanderous.

If Hood is announcing, he has already decided where he is going.  There is no need to pick a time and then just go with your gut when the time comes.

But Dodds tried to blackmail me into doing it on his site so he could make the almighty dollar, charging Marquette fans for my work.

So don't tell me Im ripping off Marquette fans.  That's Dodd's job.

Now try and enforce it. Oh, and make no mention of the questionable legal practices websites use to sell your privacy information to advertisers.

Actually, it has nothing to do with Dodds...The person actually stole from Mark Miller(the person who posted the info) and those posters who paid for that info.

Someone made mention that paying for premium info is useless. This is a perfect example.....if the OP doesn't steal the info, and post it over here, the only people that would know this info would be people that pay for that info. You won't find the info on any other boards. Not the Louisville board, not the Florida State board, not the Mississippi St. board, not the Alabama board.
