Welcome to an uncharacteristically brief edition of Friday Feedback as we simultaneously race toward 500 posts — this is 457 — and 100,000 page views — 92,856 when I began this morning — since launching Sept. 19. Remember, a few posts were accidentally deleted during a routine server maintenance and the counter wasn’t installed until we felt we wouldn’t be embarrassed by the numbers.
“Hey, 51 hits today? What’s that? That’s not today? That’s for the first three weeks? Oh..”

Anyhow, we’re quick today because I want to make sure I have a good seat for the Rodriguez interview this weekend. Did you know it was exclusive? And by good seat, I mean as far away as possible for fear a softball might hit me in the head.
Onto the Feedback. As always, comments appear as post. In other words, don’t worry about mistakes. You can always make a comeback.

Then Cary, the dexterous President and CEO of West Virginia Media, who, like many others, called for Garrison’s eventual ouster, slides into town for an interview. It’s exclusive, by the way. Rodriguez then plays Jerry Stackhouse to WVU’s Jeff Hornacek and lands several unanswered punches to the face. What can you say except timing is everything?
