This article is infinitely more clarifying than a similar article from ESPN on the Rich Rod Racist drama currently unfolding somewhere that the snake oil selling wizard hangs out.
If it's true, and I have no idea if it is, Dicky Roddy is much worse than I thought. He's just a horrible human being.
Essentially, this WVU fundraiser is saying that Ricky Ricardo concocted stories about him to derail the WVU lawsuit focused on the buy-out clause. And that in the process he labeled Larry the Fundraiser a racist in public. Then, the Rod offered to find Lar a job at scUM to keep him quiet.
All very Desperate Housewives, no?
Maybe we can get ABC to start a Soap Opera about it all. The Ann Arbor Suth...I like it...

I can’t believe you went Desperate Housewives on us. You just lost half our readership. If you bring in a Brothers and Sisters, I’m shutting HLS down. There just wont be any point to it anymore.

Dude, I didn’t go Desperate Housewives on you. RR and UM did. Drama follows that dude like crazy. So it’s not my fault.

Well, at any rate, I hope Sally Field finds herself unemployed soon.

and the obsession continues, so sad to see. Is there that little to talk about that is ND related for you Biscuit?

I finally understood the situation as well ESPN really did a poor job…Probably all the reporters were busy thinking on anti ND comments.

DTK, are you serious? This is CFB news, opponent news. Blogs were all over Charlie during his Gastric Bypass lawsuit.
If anything, you should be sick of reading about all of RichRod’s antics…I know I would be if he were my ‘coach’.

At least UM’s ‘coach’ has proven he can win a bowl game
.
Yeah, actually it doesn’t really bother me just yet, just a messy divorce in my mind. It doesn’t look good for UM or RichRod but once it is resolved we can all focus back on FB again.

DTK, let’s be honest. Richie Rich has proven he can coach in the Big East. Congratufreakinlations.

He hasn’t proven a thing at Michigan. And the quotes around ‘coach’ are because, so far, he’s been so much else – media fodder, HLS’ biotch, that kind of thing.
And I agree. As soon as he figures out how to end the ugly divorce (i.e. loses his lame-duck lawsuit and gives up and let’s everyone move on) and quits getting involved in shady stuff, you guys can go back to worrying about FB and we can stop trashing him. As much.

Domer, personally I think the Big East is better than the Big 12 and the ACC over that period. Go back and check, they actually do really well OOC, should cause some concern with that UConn series you have coming up.

Hey, I’m all for the UConn games. We may well be watching a future ND HC on the opposition’s sidelines (all caveats about the BigE aside).

biscuit, I agree with all you’ve said regarding Roddy Piper’s crazy antics, whether it be the cheerleader or the money or the (put in whatever you want regarding this man), and I agree it is soap opera like. and domer, I must say that in biscuit’s defense, Desperate Housewives is a helluva show, the episode with the pool boy, top notch. DTK, it has got to get tiring hearing all this about a man that seems like, so far, he’s more trouble than he’s worth. I think that’s the point of the continuous thrashings dealt in his direction day in and day out.
