Did a 20-page thread disappear?

[SumItUp]

Unless I'm dreaming, there was a long thread about Spadola's playing status and it's gone. Did the NCAA gain admin access? Homeland Security?

[LehighGuy]

Yea, really wtf is going on. Mods, why was it taken down?

[ursus arctos horribilis]

I don't want to speak out of turn but I think our boy Cleets not knowing the awesome power of at his grasp tried to delete a post that a user requested and then proceeded to delete an entire thread.

I am working now to find it and restore it but have had no luck as of yet. Give me a few minutes and I'll try and get it back.

It is not intentional and I apologize for leaving you all in his care for a brief period of time.:D

[DJKyR0]

It's a conspiracy! The mods are in league with the Illuminati! Class warfare! Panic!

I go to the post as requested by the POSTER who posted it and "Hit delete"

I think the Spadola thread just crossed over into The Twilight Zone.

[ursus arctos horribilis]

Wow.

Just amazing.

I can't find this thing anywhere. Spent over an hour now, will look again tomorrow but Cleets does a very thorough job when he does it. I would like to give his neck a nice little hug with my vice grip hands right now.

I can't blame that last part on this though.

Coincidentally, that's where it came from.

[MTfan4life]

Coincidentally, that's where it came from.

Actually I think it all originated here. blog (http://alexglaze.wordpress.com/2011/12/03/should-spadola-have-played/)

At least I imagine that's when people caught word of it. For once, an FCS team is glad it's just at the popularity level of the FCS. If Brandon Weeden or Andrew Luck or another of the other top white FBS athletes sends that tweet, he is blacklisted within an hour. Chaos would ensue throughout every media outlet. I don't know what the NCAA would do with him, but his fame would plummet into oblivion before the night is over. This is only small because few people nationally know who Spadola is. IMO

Now, who kicked this thing off?

Guys, go google "spadola suspended" somehow we turned into the source LOL, half the links are to our now missing thread or to other message boards that link to our missing thread LOL

we propogated this thing....

[Professor Chaos]

Perhaps this is just the karmic gods telling us we should wait until there is solid confirmation from a reliable source with specifics in print before speculating about the merits and reasoning behind an alleged suspension.

Cleets was merely their mortal vessel doing their bidding.

[bisonnation]

This was all a fake rumor started by someone with an agenda. Then it turned ugly posting tweets from players and turned disrespectful.

[eagle07]

Funny thing, well maybe not but i think it would be funny is if he wasnt going to be suspended, but then such a fuss was made over it by folks on this board and others and the NCAA/Lehigh took notice and decided that he needed to be suspended

[Flizack]

Spadola is suspended for repeating word s on tweeter from a freind, The same words on tweeter that NDS players & Towson players wrote on tweeter. On top of things the same words that Spadola wrote were in the same song in the pre-game show at Towson. So I wonder how many people were offended there out of the 17000 who attended. I know I was offeded. Does that make the enire Towson coaching staff penalized for next years 1 st game?

[Side Judge]

Damn, I send you 1000 PMs, call you all the time, beg, plead, even bribe you to delete every damn citdog post but you say no can do, and now this:D

That would be odd, because the thread/rumor was started by a Lehigh person.

[Doc QB]

I missed all of this yesterday...can someone other than Mr Chicken (who I still cant freaking understand after three years of attempting to decipher his posts) update me on what was said via twitter, who was quoted misquoted, what was said on the TU side by coaches, etc???

I hope we LU followers arent getting a Elon type tweeter disaster.

I saw the thread. It was ugly. No hard evidence was given, just "soft evidence", a lot of twitter quotes, and nothing official from anyone.

The "LU Poster" was not a "regular".

Well I"m not going to post the link, because it seems like this is all bunk and this just makes everybody look bad. But if you do a google cache search, you can find the deleted AGS thread. Much like the tweets in question, once something is on the internet, it stays on the internet. Deleting it won't make it disappear.

Dec 2 - RS tweets
Dec 3 (morning) - LU releases original statement regarding violation of social media policy
Dec 3 (evening) - Towson sports blogger posts article quoting said media policy
Dec 4 - LU statement is edited to be more comprehensive and re-released with new date
Dec 5 - Quiet
Dec 6 - "Lehigh '98" (not me) breaks story on AGS that RS will not play (I'll give you that we can throw out all of the other boards because arguably they could have been spawned by this one)
Dec 6 - Liebler's sister tweets confirmation that RS will not play
Dec 6 - Fargo sports writers confirm interviews with Andy Cohen schedule for 12/7 have been postponed
Dec 7 - Quiet so far

One can only reasonably conclude they are making their way through the appeals process.

Oops!

[LehighGuy]

Oops!

Really?

[eagle07]

Ok guys here are the facts:

1. tweet was retweeted by Spadola not originating from him
2. there are no facts on supsension, so far just a slap on wrist
3. If we keep talking about this, we are just making more and more of it and I believe increase the chance of a suspension the more garbage and links to our threads there are out there on the internet, which I dont think anyone wants to see at this part of the season
4. clearly original poster was chattowmocs using an alias j/k

[OL FU]

Speaking of which - has anyone seen him lately? Is he OK?

I need to call him. Wonder which one of the ten possible phone numbers I should call.

I've always said that having Cleets' help is like having two good workers quit on ya.

He used to just try and kill this place one post at a time but now has found a way to do it hundreds of posts at a time.

Citdiggity has famously used this clip for quite some time to assess what it takes to be his friend and somehow Cleets can now use it as well.
