    On Sports Board, I Read Posts Bragging On Kyle Tucker’s Work/Employer

    I venture over to his Twitter occasionally for a contrarian view. He is as tolerant as George Wallace was back in the 1960s; he despises conservatives and anyone who disagrees with him. Not above calling people names at all.

    I read around and am a member of several sites. One never knows for sure but EVERYONE that admits knowing Tucker simply cannot stand him.

    I know The Athletic employs Dana O’Neal and Seth Davis along with Tucker. I suspect I will hold off subscribing and maybe donate some money to Pat Forde’s 401K

    The work he does reporting on all things UK is outstanding and that is why I subscribe to the Athletic. I do not read his twitter stuff and honestly do not care if he thinks Nancy should run for President. I am only interested in his sports reporting.

    Who he wants for President is his business; he is an absolute asshole to everyone that disagrees with him.

    Typical of people who think their opinions mean more than yours.

    I just read his reporting on the Cats and find him to be fair, very well written, and thorough. I do not look to engage him in conversation. If I were seeking that, I would probably have the same reaction to him as many others do.

    I am too old fashioned. I remember the days of getting all my info via the newspaper and some from magazines. If there was a writer like Thamel or Forde that put articles in these publications, I just ignored them. I never tried to engage them in conversation. If there was someone like that on KSR I would just put them on ignore or try to get Darrell to ban them from the board.

    I've followed and unfollowed Kyle a gazillion times. I currently follow him but have him muted and on a college basketball list I keep so it doesn't get in my regular Twitter feed. I really like his sports coverage but dislike how he'll mix in politics too often for my taste. Regardless of a writer's political persuasion, I just don't like mixing sports and politics if possible.

    He is a complete jerk on his political twitter posts. Stronger words are warranted.

    The quality of his work has fallen off considerably over the last 2-3 years.

    ...and I just unfollowed/delisted him again.

    It's funny-I've gone back and forth on following/unfollowing him more than anyone else. If he has something worth reading I'll just wait for someone I follow to retweet him, I guess.

    I'm tempted. I did a major unfollowing of a lot of accounts last summer and that helped. There are still some accounts on there I like.
