Michael Peters again disrespects his hometown team, this time on Twitter. Peters is the sports editor of the Tulsa World. He is literally costing that paper $$ in lost subscriptions.

Subscriptions hurt but advertising $$$ will have a major impact. If businesses that support TU withhold or call to threaten to withhold their advertising money things will change. TU's administration should tell the World's publisher that they will no longer advertise or do trade in kind programs with their paper until the attitude changes.
Did is the correct tense right?I do some business advertising with the World.........
I do some business advertising with the World.........
Just read the entire thread of tweets and replies.
Not nearly enough damage inflicted yet imo.
Peters has a very similar attitude to Pat Jones, who scolded TU fans & TU for letting Coach Blankenship go. Again, who are we (TU fans & school ) to expect success. Same condescending attitude.
So far Peters is not taking my bait lol
The OU Rivals guy just lol'd. I was hopeful he'd engage.
Does that fit the 140 char limit?You know what's really dumb? You take 15 minutes to actually get to know this program...the coaches, the athletes, their families, the history, what TU does with what it has to work with...you don't have to fake it just because it's the city where you live and work.
You have to be a miserable person to not pull for them to succeed on a human level.
Unfortunately the Tulsa Sports Commission/Chamber could completely care less about any sporting event already here. They only care about the ones from out of state they want to come here.
I keep asking for someone at the University in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce or another group to do an economic impact study on TU football and basketball. It would be valuable to show the tax revenue collected on game day from hotels, airlines, car rental, gasoline, food, vendors to work the game, and other activities. The people and businesses in Tulsa need to understand how our programs aid the city and state economically. Without TU playing football and basketball at the highest NCAA level there would be a negative impact. This is the reason the Tulsa World and other media outlets need to be positive about our program.
