No one is truely objective, no matter how much they think they are.  Everyone has biases and prejudices that influence everything they do.  BTW, columnists are not supposed to be objective.

Brett does a lot of non-column writing, and that's what I was referring to.  And regarding your statement that no one is truly objective, that is true.  I think we all realize that, but some are so far from being objective that it's hilarious.  

Examples:

1) Some UCF fans that come on here and will bash anything and everything about USF.

2) Conversely, lots of USF fans on this board who CANNOT HANDLE any comment or opinion that paints USF in anything but a glowingly beautiful and flawless light.

It's best to stay away from extremes.  But who the heck am I preaching to here......bulletin board fans....notorious (in large measure) for their insane bias.  I guess that's my mistake.

Brett's not really a columnist, is he? Fennelly, Johnston, Henderson are columnists ...

He does some column work.  His blog is basically the same as a newspaper column.

requesting an apology is a little pre-mature... what if we go 5-7?  

thank the guy for his coverage...  he does great work

appology from some of you on this board. When he predicted 6-6 you all told him he was crazy. It's looking like thats where we will finish.

First of all, why not wait until the 6th loss before posting something as stupid as this?

That's right!  If we go 7-5, the 11-1 predictions here will have been proven to be much more accurate.   ::)

I don't see how that deserves an apology.  He predicted 6-6 and so what?  If someone predicted 5-7 and someone said they were crazy do they deserve an apology too?  It was his opinion.  I just don't think that deserves an apology.

He's a reporter, he should be used to it.  We don't have to agree with everything he says.  I haven't seen him complaining, so he's taking it like a man.

Perhaps we should actually wait and let the games be played to see what our final record is before we start saying that he was right or wrong... ::)
