There's something oddly appealing about the anonymous writer, under a pen name, or simply writing for someone else. But it's also sorta cowardly :manny:

I really wish that Sohh sports journalist group thing would've gotten off the ground, with twitter and everything it could've been brilliant :ffs:

please, you know these people will never ever get anything like that done

coli was supposedly going to have something like that too some time ago, if you look at the mod forum

Brehs straight out of left field but...hypothetically...if you were given the chance to ghostwrite for someone on one of them clickbait 20-30 year old demographic websites...would you do it? :lupe::lupe:

For the fukkery at least? :lupe:

No leads yet, but I know someone who might be freelancing here soon and a collabo might be in the works :lupe:

Was it just gonna be the mods? Or were they gonna try to launch a fictional writer on the front page and see if it caught on?

oh my bad, didnt think the 'mod forum' thing through

it was gonna be all types, journo stuff for music/sports, reviews, blah blah. a general front page full of everything and plenty of people willing to help. didnt get off the ground for one reason or another. shame is the forum is easily big enough to make ground early on that sort of thing. maybe some responsibility too far

tbh minor reason why i went 'obvious troll' on the rest of the forum, was planning on taking part but since that's gone, who needs a coli reputation? :yeshrug:

lol @ the "put us on" thing, pack of ravenous wolves

anyone else think it's a bit uncouth to just invite a whole pack of people along to a job you dont even have yet or just started

I see. For some reason I remember the sohh one being a bit like a satire on sports journalists and Chris Broussard ESPN types. That's always so hard to do though because if you're putting the effort to make fun of something might as well just do it for real if you think it's shyt. :yeshrug:

I'm calling it - Everton will take over Arsenal in 2 weeks and Everton will finish 4th

Fulham/Everton and Arsenal/City then Everton/Arsenal



And people should examine the table with Man United, very interesting results. 2nd best away record in the league, and uncharacteristically the top 5 teams all only have 1 loss at home. United have 6. So if they kept up at the typical rate they'd easily be 2nd right now. Nothing they can't easily fix next season.

Thought I'd share this. Good article if you have some time to kill http://thebaffler.com/past/the_vertically_integrated_rape_joke

Some months back I was bagging on Vice and I saw that their second season was on HBOGO

But I just recently learned that those fukkboys roll with Murdoch and his ever revolving nightmarish media conglomeration :lupe:

Somehow making them worse than they were before :what:

Damn brehs...I've never been so heated in my life as tonight.

I was out at the bars with my breh and they kicked him out for doing coke :what:

Thing is I've never seen this dude do coke and he's one of my best friends :what:

He was in the stall taking a piss and he blew his nose and the bouncers thought he was blowing lines and kicked him out:what::why:

Then the police officer patrolling the bar has the gall to say as we leave, "OH, IT'S COOL, JUST COMMITTING A FELONY IN THE BATHROOM EH??"

I swear I wanted to swing on that nikka. Mainly because that shyt was mad disrespectful, and mainly because that nikka thinks just because he's a cop he can pop off with witty rejoinders and shyt. I was rather close to cussing him out but I restrained, never know what could happen. As Cam said I got plans that was better than jail. But fukk that guy. Seriously. :what: fukkboy.

And then I came and posted about it on the coli :ffs:
