[QUOTE="BrewingFrog, post: 2723054, member: 28"] So far, the only question is: Will the Mt. Vernon Board stick to their horrible decision? The avalanche of calumny has begun, but in a small, insulated town, the backlash might not be what we think it should, and soon the national media will find another shiny object to chase after. All will be forgotten. There might be some stories in the late summer, but they will be lost amidst the flood of other information covering the impending season. No, what remains is the inevitable "redemption" story, shot in beautiful 4K, complete with small town preachers, moms, dads, etc., extolling the re-found virtues of one Warden Art. I expect ESPN will send a crew to produce this piece. It will lead to some University "bravely" employing Warden Art, and receiving praise for doing so. Wash, soak, rinse, repeat. Oh, and sure, ESPN is all "angry" now, but Media works on "outrage" and "controversy." Things that rile people up are what draw clicks and viewers. ESPN will embrace Satan hissownself if it gets them another .01 in their cumulative ratings. Warden Art is only a small step down from the Big Evil, and thus an easy choice. Each week's game will feature protesters, counter-protesters, and drunks, all tearing at each other. [I]A ratings bonanza!
