I have no clue (and probably will never know who or what you're talking about), but you seem very obsessed with this person. You should get some help dude.

I'm not trying to fool anybody. We already had this duscussion already. I don't care what anybody does. @MistaBinks collects Star Wars memorabilia. Not my thing, but I certainly wouldn't mock him for it.
Nobody cares about your rambling dude. Your last 10 posts are about this person. Get some help dude.
Kappy has always been approvable and very nice in my experience. I've crossed paths with him many times. He's definitely more approachable than Teicher in my experience. And as far as him not being knowledgeable, I'll disagree about that. He's an El Paso sports encyclopedia from what I've seen. I wasn't planning on posting on here but I've seen so many negative posts about him that I thought I would share my positive experiences.
That's the thing with opinions about other people's personalties. Everybody has different opinions. And that's ok.
I don’t mind Steve Kaplowitz. He’s at least trying to cover local sports and he’s knowledgeable with that. When it comes to national stuff I can let it slide he paints with broad strokes because he can’t know everything about everything.
Not a fan boy, Steve’s a long time friend and I’m just stating facts. He knows more about sports than your average person for sure, especially Baseball history. Some of you apparently forget or don’t know who his dad was, also he’s from New York not El Paso. It’s not just El Paso Sports that he knows.
I think everybody knows who his Dad was. That was Steve's connection to the job. I talked with Joel a few times and he was a very nice person.
The fact and not opinion is that he knows more sports history than an average person. That is not an opinion. I don’t know you and your sports knowledge, but I’d wager he would destroy you at a Sports Trivia game especially Baseball. The fact is we are fans, he researches and makes it his job to know more than the normal person. Therefore it is a Fact he knows more than an average person.
No, that's an opinion.
I doubt it.
I research sports as well. A lot of people do.
Wrong again. That's an opinion.

I’m not questioning that at all. I think his show is ok. I tune in every once in a while when there are interesting local topics. I think there are way worse local sports guys. Plus he had it out with Tim Floyd. So he’s ok in my book.
Same. I think his show is ok and I tune in every now and then.
He's ok, not great. It seems like some of you are taking the comments on here a little too personally.
Kap is very personable. Being rude at a loved one is tough to take. That doesn't sound like Kappy but if it happened, then it happened. Golding has fans flumoxed and angry. Social media is blowing up with transfer news, even from smaller mid majors (i.e.-High Point) and zilch, nada, niet, leai from UTEP; however, with Walden he has postings of everything. All he leaves out is the fake turf grooming during non practice.
Pointing your verbal guns at Kap will not make Golding bring out more info. UTEP basketball appears to be piecemealing with him any info and local sports media like him and they rely on each other, so Kaps reports what he knows at broadcast time.
Put the pressure on Senter, not Kap. Golding has underperformed 4 years, keep letting him know it will not be tolerated while peers conference mates make improvements in one to two years.

This is pretty spot on and exactly 1966 took a personal attack on Kaps and people who actually know him came to his defense that’s all. Also I agree it’s very quiet around Golding and Utep Basketball, but a lot of news will be coming out shortly. When I find something out by my own digging I will always post it on this board. Sometimes it turns out to be BS and sometimes it has proved accurate. This is mainly an opinion based blog, but breaking stories about local El Paso sports mainly Utep is very appreciated! However if it’s something told to me by someone in the local media that asks me not to say anything I respect that!
Is it going to be Golding’s impending termination?
Unless you grew up very sheltered and/or you have thin skin, then calling somebody "arrogant" is not a "personal attack".
I can say No unfortunately
He doesn’t want Kappys auto but is willing to hangout by the dugouts of the Salt Lake Bees and Sacramento River Lizards instead.
Who the heck are you talking about? LMAO You've been talking about this person in your last 15 posts.
You seem very insecure about yourself. Nobody cares if you get autographs. Nobody cares what you do. You don't need to get validation on here to get autographs. You do you and don't worry about what anybody else thinks.
