Mark Jurich letter to Vince Tyra

[ThroughBlue]

“If you cannot bear the sight, or rather the optics of Tom Jurich in the Yum! Center or Cardinal Stadium, you are weaker than I thought,” Mark Jurich wrote to Tyra in a message sent on Aug. 22. “If you feel the need to hide my dad in a corner to make yourself feel important or simply comfortable, then so be it – he will do that for you.“

If he doesn't want the tickets, I'll take them!

Sour grapes there!

I thought Tyra said that he was a "good friend" of the Juriches?

I can’t wait to hear Ky fans input and concerns about this in-house UofL matter.

If you want mine.... I really don’t care where they freaking sit. Nor do I know why Throughblue cares unless just to start a discussion. Hell if I were the Jurich’s I wouldn’t want to go to the damn game. But like I said, who cares???

If you must know, I don’t care (sound familiar?).

I can’t believe the jurichs still want to attend the games. If I get fired from my job they will never see me again. Ever

Can’t understand why you think he was serious about wanting your opinion, because he wasn’t

No sh!t? hahah.

These Ky fans are like moths to a flame.

So your a typical SuCk fan who thinks you’re more relevant than you are

I’m just pissed that jurichs seats at the Yum center are better than my Metallica seats. Crap

Mark Jurich issued a mea culpa this morning. Obviously his leaking the email to press didn’t go over the way he intended.

 

[Chapman123]

This is just more evidence of how much sleaze was here and now has left.

 

[Louis III]

This is all idiotic. My biggest problem is why this was sent to the CJ and why in the hell would they leak it 3 days before UL/Bama, wait until next week when we play IN st or never. Good lord, can we PLEASE move past all this. I absolutely despise 98% of the media.

You are blaming the media for this? How about the Jurich’s and their PR wing not release this to a reporter say ever. It’s not the CJ’s job to decide a good time to release this info so long as it was adequately corroborated.

Obviously the CJ is going to cover it, but they find great pleasure in covering or excessively covering dirt on UofL verses other state schools.

I personally don’t read the CJ and if it went away tomorrow I could careless. They are an agenda driven paper. And pretty much worthless.

What "mea culpa"? I read a brief statement that said his seats weren't the issue, nor did I interpret the email that way. Link me to something that says more.

Sullivan said he got a "tip". How do you know who it was from?

Sullivan also said HE HAD TO CALL MARK JURICH and that was AFTER he contacted U of L with another open records request last week and to which they weren't responsive. You've got the definition of "leak" backward...

I would go out on limb and said the “tip” was from Boxcar PR. Of course we won’t know for sure. Regardless, Jurich’s hissy fit didn’t go over well and he knows it.

“I’m sorry my message got lost yesterday — it’s never been about the seats, I know there is not a bad location in either of these beautiful venues. To the UofL fans I offended, I am truly sorry. I’ll be at every home game with my boys — we are excited to support the Cards!”

I loved reading Mark's email. And I've never found the limb you're out on...

Mark has gotten roasted for his email, thus his walk back today. I’m sure he appreciates your undying support though. Not sure he will be writing checks to his PR firm this month.

Mark said he was sorry for fans like you not understanding. Sometimes I feel that way too...

 

[Hoops244]

They just need to go away. Eventually, I believe they will remembered fondly for all they did here.

They are remembered fondly by the vast majority of fans now.
