Should Randy Peterson be banned from Campbell interviews after his question?

[Gunnerclone]

@JStanz51 mentioned something like this on the latest FARTcast like a BOSS KEEPING IT REAL FOR US ON THESE STREETS. Great work! I had almost given up on the FART but now I’m pooting for life.

Which was 'what are going to do to fix the offenive line'?

I actually don’t mind randy but that is a dumb question. Our offensive line looked maybe the best it ever had last weekend

It's called holding someone accountable after repeat offenses. What's so hard to understand about that? The guy time and time again asks complete off the wall, irrelevant questions that are baseless and a waste of time. Why continue to allow that individual the privilege to cover your team?

It seems like “journalism” is one of those jobs where you don’t have to be right or even good necessarily to keep your job. If I sucked at my job I wouldn’t get to keep it. Randy repeatedly sucks at his, and it’s business as usual. Ya ain’t gotta fire him I guess, but maybe not accept flaming mediocrity and even reward it with trips to sporting events and first questions and the like...

I'd be okay with this question after many games. But not this week. I was impressed by OL play. Especially up against that JJ Watt/ Michael Strahan type player we were facing

Not anymore. Success is no longer measured by awards, but by clicks and responses. The race to be first (regardless of accuracy) is more important.

Yes I'd say 7.7 yards per play against one of the Big 10s better defenses is not too bad for the second game of the season.

I'm not sure what Randy wants fixed?. Maybe he bought the list of questions he was going to ask after the UNI game.

Who's that ?

 

[BoxsterCy]

Randy be all busy getting to the bottom of Barta's accusation about our evil fans being mean to the Iowa band. Investigative reporting! Bad words! Gestures! Sports front page tomorrow!

DSM’s Michigan fan.

So, by your measure, no one should ever comment on anything they don't like. We should all just sit here and give positive thumbs up. Opinions are okay. It's going to be okay.

I was being sarcastic. If you follow my comments on the thread, I was talking against banning. I was trying to represent the slippery slope here.

Comment all you want but don't suggest banning the press. That is eerily close to fascism.....even if we are just talking sports.

 

[Urbandale2013]

I will admit Randy did seem a lot more competent with the question tonight on the radio. Just poorly worded.

I mean sports teams say media people aren't allowed in their press conferences all the time. It's not saying he can't write about Iowa State

 

[SpokaneCY]

Congrats on all of your success

Why is he taking his clothes off in that shot? I'm disturbed...

 

[CydlineFan]

Well Randy is the expert on offensive lines...he writes them all the time
