    RE: Ikes apology

    Ok guys I'm done. You both make good points. And yes everyone is entitled to their opinion. Let's get off this subject and get back to talking fishing. Best of luck to you guys if you hit the water in the next couple of days.

    My last word since I just read the thread.

    I cannot believe how many of you guys out there are so narrow minded and unforgiving. We all know what this is about, the kid from the North East with the cocky attitude, then he backs up that cocky attitude with great ability, BUT he acts like an idiot sometimes. So all you Ike haters, remember I do not like his on air ACT either, can all sit back like little girls and go

    "hee hee hee, look what happen to Mikey. Hee heee heee!"

    Grow up already.

    You don't have to like him, you can root against him, you can even jeer him. But you know what, sitting out there without knowing the man and calling him "wuss" (wuss huh Red, he put it all on the line as a teen ager and young man to go for something he believed in, that took a lot of guts. Who knows what else this man has been through in his life, you certainly don't!) "unpatriotic", whatever is just plain wrong, shame on you just like shame on him for what he did.

    You know what I do stand up for him, not because I like his act, but because I too have met him and think he is a great guy. I met Jimmy Houston, Roland Martin and a few other big names and came away saying what a bunch of Azzoles. He left me feeling like I had met someone that truly wanted to talk to me. Yes I wish he would stop the "ACT", I hate it and think it makes T anglers look like clowns, BUT I will not stand back and throw bombs at this guy without knowing him. Who are you to do the same thing.

    Oh wait a minute, all the Ike haters are going to come back and start whacking at me and him again, so here it is:

    YOU WIN OK, HE IS A BIG BABY, UNPATRIOTIC AND SHOULD BE BANNED FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE. HE IS A WUSS, MORON, IDIOT AND WHATEVER I LEFT OUT. SO THERE YOU WIN!!!! NUFF SAID!

    Stick a fork in me I'm done!

    Fishhead....LOL

    Very nice speech.

    Hey, do you know all of us "IKE Haters" as you put it???

    If not, you are doing exactly what you are chastising us for doing, right??

    See how easy it is?????

    When a guy is making the kind of money Ike is, and putting himself out there, he invites his critics just as he invites his supporters.

    The same thing with posting on here. When you express any opinion in a public forum, you invite both critics and supporters.

    Makes America Great doesn't it??

    Danny criticism is one thing, I'm an Ike Critic, but.....

    Calling names like wuss, punk, etc is not the same as criticizing what he does. Criticize away, jeer, but don't start calling him names like punk, unpatriotic, etc.

    And yes, after following this site for how many years since it started. I was one of the original posters, I think I know some of you guys a little. You can tell a person moral character and personality traits by what they post. You know me, we have had our agreements and disagreements over the years, but you know I'm not going to go out there and throw bombs at people. My history on this site proves I will stand up for a position I believe in regardless of the popular postions.

    Lke I said before and will state again I DO NOT APPROVE OF IKES ON AIR ACT! PERIOD!. But right is right and wrong is wrong, he was wrong for what he did in the Classic and for things he's done on many other occaisions, but sitting at a key board and throwing bombs and slinging names at the guy from a distance is, well you know what it is and so doesn't everyone else. So just keep at it and everyone will know just what kind of a person you are.

    "You can tell a person moral character and personality traits by what they post"

    You sure can....

    He's still a punk...
    "He had the nads to admit his mistake and ask forgiveness."

    What nads....he kicked the USA in thiers alright.

    I'm sorry he's you hero.

    You can't have your cake and eat it also..or too... or 2..or...three..or 4..four.................

    We each think it what we each think. Pot to kettle. We're throwing bombs at Iconelli...I will not call him IKE any more because, another post someone reminded me that IKE was a good president. I would like to thank that person for pointing that out. This joker doesn't deserve that nickname at all.
    And trust me, I'm not saying anything here that I would'nt say to his face, or yours, or anyones....

    You also forget he did this in front of the well...PUBLIC...KIDS...KIDS.....KIDS......Well maybe you didn't forget, but in haste to correct us it may have slipped your memory.

    And you can think, say, or type all you want...It was a forced apology.

    We'll have some freinds that will be around his assness in a couple of weeks in Texas. Let's just see how receptive the public and his fellow anglers will be at the first tourney...

    [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Mar-02-06 AT 10:42AM (EST)[/font][p]Some of you guys kill me.

    --Do you hate Jack Nicholson, Robert Deniro or Al Pacino because they have played villains in a movie you watched?

    --Do you really think Vince McMahon or Triple H are the scum of the earth because they are loud and obnoxious on the various WWE wrestling shows?

    ESPN and the other powers that be that televise fishing needed a way to sway the perception of some that all bass fishermen are inbred rednecks ---> enter Mike Iaconelli and a few others.

    His loud, controversial antics were encouraged and applauded because he helped deliver a new demographic to fishing. Like Fish Fishburn before him, he brought new viewers to fishing shows on Saturday mornings, which translates into more people spending money buying baits and tackle from merchandisers and other sponsors.

    You may not like it, but IT'S ABOUT MARKETING. It's a big business now; that's why there's such a stink about Series A guys vs. Series B guys, or this circuit making competitors cover the patches on their clothing before they can be shown on camera or walk on stage.

    The same thing is happening in NASCAR right now. You've got villains Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart (who are not Southerners) along with a bunch of young pretty boys (most of whom are not Southerners) trying to erase the stereotype that everyone in racing is a barefoot, beer-swilling redneck in a wifebeater t-shirt and a mullet haircut.

    I'm in no way suggesting that fishing or racing is scripted or fixed like the movies and wrestling -- but you are naive to think that there aren't teams of markerting gurus that are ready to put a spin on events and shape them to their advantage.

    Yep,
    You're wasting your breath...he's still a punk....

    In no way would any marketers script mistreating the US Flag... If they did, send them over and put them on the front line.
