I shamelessly promoted the firing of Rick Villarreal, I didn't shamelessly promote myself.

Tell you what, if you can manage to not use the word "banner" for the next 30 days... I'll believe you.

You are asking quite a lot. That would be a banner event, no doubt.

All @UNT90 had to do was point out that what Briles et al did was wrong and he could have made his point about Hanson. He didn't do that, and in my estimation he should have. i agree that Dale pounces on hot issues, much like the SMU saga back in the day. But honestly - that's what he does. Investigative journalism basically does not exist anymore. TMZ rules the roost.

Yep it is his job, but you have to admit over the last decade he seems to be more open in his views. Back in the day he was probably worried about losing his job or getting in trouble at the station. Now it seems he can tackle what he wants. I like it.

So, what you're really aggravated about is that Dale picked the low-hanging fruit on Baylor. Who cares? Many commentators go after the low-hanging fruit.

Also, his job is to report and comment on things sports-related, and mainly of interest to people in this region. You think the Baylor situation would just pass by him in that role?

Here's Doocy over at Fox 4 saying that it's disgraceful that Starr stays and Briles is fired: https://twitter.com/mikedoocyfox4

So, is Doocy self-promoting because he gave an opinion about the Baylor fiasco instead of just reporting it?

(Disclaimer: I watch Doocy more than I do Hansen; find Doocy to be more authentic.)

OR, he gets more publicity for going with the public flow. Because he is an attention whore.

Oh, his opinions aren't contained to sports related items and you know it. He was probably pisses that this had a sports angle, since he considers himself one of the great social thinkers of our times. Lol.
