Comments on: Northeastern Sweeps VCU http://www.vcuramnation.com/2010/01/northeastern-sweeps-vcu/ Full Coverage and Discussion of VCU Basketball Sat, 04 Feb 2012 21:35:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Mat http://www.vcuramnation.com/2010/01/northeastern-sweeps-vcu/comment-page-1/#comment-13327 Mat Mon, 25 Jan 2010 03:58:24 +0000 http://www.vcuramnation.com/?p=3148#comment-13327 Disgusted? Really? I don't see how deleting an ODU post that said "VCU SUCKS" really removes much "open discussion" from our site. When you graduate in two years I hope you take your BA in journalism and start a VCU blog of your own (CAA teams could use all the coverage they can get). There you will be free to filter ODU, Mason, and whoever else's fans attempts at starting pissing matches however you please. In the meantime we will continue to spend our time and money on covering VCU hoops in our own way, because as you said...we have nothing - better - to - do. Disgusted? Really?

Some ask that we edit comments and some ask that we don't. "For the school, by the school." You couldn't be more wrong. They haven't given us a dime and we've never asked for one. We are all proud VCU alumni and we love VCU basketball. Helping promote VCU's program is a by product of what we do. From one journalism major to another, I hope you realize that like basketball, this is all about having fun and sharing a passion. Michael Hagan VCU 2004 VCU 2011,

I'm disgusted that this blog claims to be "By the Fans, For the Fans" when it edits fans comments, even if those fans are from another school. A comment posted last night by a nor'eastern fan was cool, without vulgarity and it was on topic. It was deleted (along with a JMU fans comment) purely because it wasn't from a VCU voice. Disgusting... This site is obviously "By the school, and for the school" and has no concern for open discussion or free speech. But apparently its run by four dudes without better things to do then edit comments and post news we can find... well.... in the dispatch or any newspaper on the east coast. Go on delete this Comment... It's the internet, but you're practices are pathetic and I won't be reading this blog anymore. I call on all Ram fans that read this site to post vulgar comments about other schools to highlight my opinion... Oh wait, they already do. Go Rams, Go Redskins, Go Caps...
