Dr Z Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 He seemed tentative against Youngstown State and didn't hit the holes with any power or speed, for that matter.This guy has never impressed me. We'll see how Akron handles him. Quote
3rd&twenty Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 Typical for the Columbus Beacon Journal Quote
Buckzip Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 He should go back to being the movie critic... Quote
bobbyake Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 he was a horrible movie critic. Maybe he lost weight not getting paid to eat popcorn and watch movies. Quote
skip-zip Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 What surprises me is this....This is an AKRON paper, in The U of A's backyard, the day before a matchup that only comes along for us once in a great while.And what's in the Beacon Journal sports section today??An article about Ohio State, and a section entitled "Ohio State: 5 Things To Watch".Nothing about Zips Football.Unbelievable.

bobbyake Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 Look at the Beacon Journal's business section and tell me it doesn't make you laugh. Black Press is going to destroy this paper. Quote
Buckzip Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 he was a horrible movie critic. Maybe he lost weight not getting paid to eat popcorn and watch movies. I agree, he was a horrible movie critic. However, he was better at that than he is at the sports section. Quote
zipboy Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 Last Sat morning on WNIR French blasted Thomas for saying that App State would be a blowout. French said, "That team is good, they will give Michigan trouble. I am not saying they will win, but they make a game of it." Then he added, "I could flap my butt cheeks together and make more sense than George Thomas." Please don't visualize.F George Thomas. Quote

bobbyake Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 Help me report this guy. Write a Dale Carnegie like email to the following email address and tell them what you think about The Beacon Journal.rebecca@blackpress.caI'm even going to call on Monday. Key points to discuss:Business section is awful. I get the Wall Street Journal for my national business news and was forced to switch to The Plain Dealer for local business news.Sports section is bad. The local coverage is pathetic.Feel free to vent your frustrations to them. Quote

If you listen to him at the 5:45 report, when no one else is up yet, he gets pretty rauccous. Quote
Big Zip Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 George Thomas is an OSU grad I would have expected nothing less from him or the ABJ. It's kind of funny the way they say sports writers (not sports story writers) are supposed to be unbiased yet you get drivel like this. Although it appears he's the ABJ's OSU beat writer. What would it cost to give Akron the same coverage as OSU -- I'm sure it wouldn't cost too much. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted September 8, 2007 Report Posted September 8, 2007 Some scrimmage so far, huh George? Quote
