BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU ASK FOR
Give the people what they want, and they’ll come running like a herd of elephants in heat. One unfortunate and slightly disgruntled NC State fan found this out the hard way when he started a website, firechuckamato.com. Click to see as frantic a surrender flag as you’ll see on the internets.

Dude is obviously overwhelmed, but claiming that it was just something for his close friends seems a wee bit disingenuous - isn’t that what email is for? Why go to all the trouble of obtaining the domain name & setting up the site when a simple email to your close friends would do?

By the way, Shane MacGowan’s Teeth might be the best named commenter we have.

Hands down! An honorary editor’s spot waits for you just for coming up with that name.

I actually respect him bailing. He might have done it when he was pissed off and hot headed. After thinking about it, he didn’t want to do to Amato what the FireRonZook.com guy did to Ronny Z. He fueled things and make them dramatically hotter for Ron.
He was smart. He got out while the getting was good.
Zook DID suck, and DID need to be fired. But the guy with that web site did nothing but hurt UF.
BTW — I am the PROUD owner of a KeepRonZook.com T-shirt. It’s the same logo with different copy. It’s a riot.
