The Gainesville Sun Gatorsports website now requiring a paid subscription for access... that implies (HAH!) value.

Looks like they finally did it. Gainesville.com was behind the paywall for a while, but now its sister site requires payment. I’m sooo upset that I’ll have to pay to get the “wonderful insights” of Pat Dooley (aka Fat Tooley) and Robbie A. Who else is devastated? Where’s a good (and free) site for Gator sports info?

Name and town if you wish to opine.

Heres a song for Doolys playlist , Petty's Last D.J. "And the boys up stairs want to see how much you'll pay for what you use to get for free"
That kind of chit drives me to drinking.

It's comforting to know our Fuhrer is not an extortionist and would not stoop that low one day before our season opener

Dooley is last one to know.

He didnt even know McElstain was fired last year the day of the fUGly game, wrote his famous Gidiot Part 2 article, until after it was announced... and then he wrote an article declaring he knew it all along.

It blows my mind when sites like that ask for money without even showing you content. Gator bait does the same thing. I appreciate what they are trying to do but it's the wrong method. They need to show how good their content is and then ask for subscribers. I don't trust either one of those sites to give me enjoyable content that's worth me dishing out even a penny. I like my own opinion on Gator football better than any of those guys on The Sun or Gator Bait. I know football and I know gator football especially well. Better than Dooley or any of the gator bait guys that's for sure. Will Myles is about the only guy that's worth watching. I kinda like those film breakdowns on YouTube by that one guy too.
