Now that the entire fanbase is in panic mode, ready to light torches and sharpen pitchforks to march on the Athletic Department offices to call for the head of Morgan Burke, or at the very least, and explanation, we might as well make an Open Thread for all these comments. After all, Open threads are what we do best around here. Yesterday's article turned into a 740 comment Open Thread and went nuclear after Dick Weiss of the New York Daily News said it was a done deal. Of course, having Hall of Fame credentials means nothing when you pretend you don't know about the 140 character limit and retract by saying the offer was a done deal and that is what you were talking about after being called out that you were wrong.Self-respecting, credentialed media would never run with stuff like this and expect to keep their credentials anyway, right, Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel?
Oh, wait.
