CW back and forth with Jon Miller on twitter last night.....
- Thread starter jburke
- Start date
Don't take any guff from that swine, C-Dub. Next time he gets snarky, tell him that Del Amitri is a seriously overrated band, even for a one hit wonder.
Arguably, the zenith of his career was doing a show pumping a school he didn't attend....while being matched up with a guy who was a lifelong fan of one B1G school who flunked out of another B1G school and ended up as a mercenary fan of a Big 12 school.
Yeah, the snark is lost on me, too. He's saying Hilton is a tough place to play, but to do well in the tourney, you have to win away from home, which is true.
I think it's the "ain't played in that gym" tone. If you've ever heard Miller's voice, you can hear the arrogance. I'm not sure if he's referring to a potential Iowa-ISU matchup in the NCAAs or speaking more generally. If he's speaking generally, he's implying Iowa State won't have postseason success because they can't beat anyone away from Hilton, and that's a "good thing."
Or it's just a Hawkeye blowhard that didn't really think about what he was typing. His main goal was to serve up a zinger for his loyal following of low-life Hayden worshipers.
While CW would be better off not even engaging Miller, I didn't understand Miller's quick jump to "little brother." If that's what Miller wanted to say, he should have just typed it in the original tweet.
Look as much as I hate miller, the whole where did you go to school thing is just as stupid as he is.
It's not the end-all, be-all of course. But it is amusing that Iowa's top supporters/journalists/etc, didn't go to Iowa. To me, that is funny. You just don't see that on the Iowa State side.

Me, too ;-) I went to Iowa and only finished up at UNI. Never set foot in an ISU classroom. So what? At the very least, I"m a lifelong State of Iowa taxpayer so I have ownership in Iowa State University. We'll take every ISU fan we can, and like it. No qualifications necessary.
This is what's annoying about social media (I see others do this on fb and twitter in my life).....if they routinely text, then why did a convo like this have to be on a social media outlet?
I give slightly less than two *****, but not near the flying **** amount.
Observation as I see folks interact in this digital world.we live in.
Pretty much....that's why I like HR.
Miller just try's to stir up sh%t and his site is a cess pool IMO.
