Mr. Dodds asks some solid questions. Among other things, I like Shaka's consistent emphasis on conditioning.

Come for the Jewish slur in the first paragraph, stay for the softball questions !

Typo, I am sure. But well played nonetheless.

He does promote a lot of neo conservative rhetoric on his board so it doesn’t surprise me.

Love how Dodds just took the press conference answers and put his own name on them like he got an exclusive.

Yes, Ben Steele's article features some of the exact same quotes.

Yep….not the first time he’s pulled this act either.

Always good to have multiple platforms of MU Coverage

To be fair, several were his questions as he uses the DOS lead in for those. But, get what you are saying.
-
Do people actually a) read this man's garbage and b) pay for it?
-
Not a huge fan of Dodds (though he is a very nice guy in person) but why go to his board to harass him over a typo?
-
OK, so I actually went to Dodds' site for the first time in months.
brew simply posts this: "Just stopped in to share two thoughts...first, I doubt Shaka used the anti-semetic slur attributed to him. Second, how does 247's platform not flag that word? Definitely need to edit this before keeping it active."
This was literally Dodds' response. I mean holy sh*t!
"It was typo....I was very tired after a tough week at work....and going to the Al on Friday night.. were you offended or did you want to be offended? Or is it just convenient to take a pot shot? At 10pm Sunday night....the first time I had notice of the typo....I corrected it...I hope all is now well in the world.
By the way...I have typed transcripts here for 20+ yrs....I did not realize that people had problems with it... I attended a Shaka presser after the Madness drills were done....who was there asking questions?
I stood next to Ben Steele, a camera man from Ch 58....and a student from MU TV or the Trib....there were about 10 questions directed to Shaka....I listened intently at first....so as to not interfere with Ben the Journal reporter....his job puts food on the table for his family.. I try not to interrupt his questions or flow....since he probably has an idea for his story or stories this week...I learned that courtesy working for newspapers at Brewers games 1979-86....and at Packer games working with Bob McGinn for 25 yrs...and Drew Olson....Gary Van Sickle.....Cliff Chrystl....BTW....we are lucky to have Ben covering the team...
The press conference was about to end...when I extended it by asking 2 questions for Shaka...which I indicated by using "DOS"......so I transcribed the quotes...they were not all put in the Journal...I dont think there was another source that had the full transcript....so I published it...
I dont think I deserved the Congressional Medal of Honor for the work....but I dont think I asked for one either...
I have done this here for 20+ yrs...a transcript of Shaka is the best way to read him in an unfiltered way....without me filtering or commenting about it.... it is also quicker and I did not have a lot of time this weekend...I was tired on Fri night...hence the typo...and on Sat...my 89 yr old mom and here 89 yr old bestie from New England...going to their HS reunion events...with their 'walkers'...so our family was busy on Sat.... and on Sunday...I worked the Packer game with a local broadcaster....
If this site is a problem for some ...that is too bad... I guess I am an acquired taste.... I was happy to receive some appreciative feedback from people at Madness ...this site is a labor of love for me...but it is a hobby...I have been a quasi member of the media for 40+ yrs....covering over 1500 GB, Brewers, Bucks, MU games....I have had tremendous access to events, coaches, players, administrators, front office people.....and I try to pass this perspective on whenever I can. Most appreciate the anecdotes....but I also sense....some do not.....usually if they are not able to Google the stories to check the authenticity...that mindset is always a classic for me...
If some anonymous poster or posters does/do not like what I do....I can live with that...in fact, they should not come to the site if the info is perceived to be worthless....but this transcript....???? it is an opportunity to hear from Shaka...and some may not have 8 min to listen to the audio interview ...so I typed Shaka's comments..
When I get to know more about Shaka and his philosophies...and the MU players....I will have more in depth analysis...and take more time to put this season into historical perspective...for me that is what makes this site unique...historical perspective and trying to learn from the coaches and players themselves...
But if a typo...made you think that Shaka and /or I had some type of prejudice? Are you for real...or is this agenda driven? I have been doing this for 22 yrs....and if you dont know me by now....or my reputation.....that a typo with a bad reference was truly not my intention....perhaps that is on you?"

I only went over there to suggest he fix an obvious typo, admittedly a little tongue in cheek, and got that response. Which I still haven't read, but holy crap. Just crazy stuff.

“Ben’s job puts food on the table for his family.”
Hang on Lemme steal some of his quotes, attribute myself and put it on my free site instead of people paying for a JS subscription.

Finally read that. Dodds is basically the guy who always googles himself or searches his name on Twitter. Most of his article is responding to things that were said here. He's looking for a reason to write that long diatribe so he can play the victim.
If you're going to put your stuff out publicly, you need to have thick enough skin to let some criticisms roll off. He clearly never learned that, because his skin is thinner than charred parchment paper.
But I guess if nothing else, this is pretty strong evidence that I live in a free top floor four bedroom condo in his head.

Ez ta cee y he iz a frustrated journalist. Watt ewe say, Nads, hey?

Anyone who uses the “I was tired” excuse as a defense as to why their work product was subpar is laughable.

especially laughable coming from a hypocrite who urges fans to 'sack up' to deal w/losses, etc.

No surprise. He used the "tired legs" excuse for late season collapses. Apparently only Marquette has this malady.
Agree with Brew that Dodds is extremely thin skinned. His knee jerk responses to anyone who disagrees with him, even if only slightly, is Exhibit A in support of the thin skin charge.

If you only went over to suggest he fix an obvious typo, a private message would have been the better approach.

And Dodds could have replied "Thanks. I've corrected the typo" and stopped there instead of what he posted.

We should all create an account pointing out that he made that error. He'd blow a gasket
-

Not to mention, when it's a public article that presumably people have already read and it is attributing a racial slur (I think that's what was mentioned, I didn't bother reading the article) to our new head coach, it should probably be brought to public light that our new head coach did not actually use that word, it was just a typo by the writer.

Agreed.
Brew went over to be an a**hole.

Not really. It was a simple statement.

Dodds is a big boy
-
How is what Brew did even an Ahole move?
Any half optomistic human with an ounce of humor would have laughed it off and been like “dang brew, nice catch! Definitely not Shaka saying that! Sorry everyone my bad, haha maybe I should have done a quick skim through!”
But instead he wrote a 3mile long letter about something or something and that there’s something about 22 years of something.
-
If I wanted to be an a-hole, I could've done so. I pointed out the mistake in the appropriate thread and planned to leave it at that.
He not only attacked my response but used comments he found on other sites to attack while also attributing comments made by other people in this very thread to me.
Maybe misattribution, whether racist slurs to Shaka or other Scoopers comments to me, is just his brand.
-
Do people actually a) read this man's garbage and b) pay for it?
(a) yes, (b) no
He needs a few people to challenge some of his pet theories.
-
Dodds...sucks
Fixed
-
(a) yes, (b) no
He needs a few people to challenge some of his pet theories.
He just bans them.

He just bans them.
I’ve always found him to be very courteous and professional while explaining in copious detail why my opinions that don’t square with his are wrong. ::)
The bans come later.
