Deion Sanders gave himself a birthday present on Aug. 9 wherein he decided which members of the media he was going to disregard. He decided he was going to avoid questions from Sean Keeler of the Denver Post and CBS Colorado’s Eric Christensen.
Keeler has been an antagonist to Sanders. He kept poking the bear, similar to the way I do. However, Keeler is in Colorado. He sees Deion every week and he has the intestinal fortitude to criticize SubPrime and still show up for his press conferences every week.

Keeler said a 4-8 coach gave a 3-9 press conference.
I have to take my hat off to him for that.
Keeler also wrote SubPrime gave him his upand coming. Keeler admits in his story, which is beyond a pay wall, that SubPrime gave him a dose of his own medicine.
“I’ve taken my swings at the pinata,” Keeler wrote. “Friday was Prime’s turn, and he didn’t miss. I had it coming, as the old song from ‘Chicago’ goes. That’s fine. But Christensen? Channel 4? A media partner? The station that outbid its peers to host Prime’s local coach’s show?
“This was another side of Deion we’d heard about but hadn’t really seen yet: Biting one of the hands that actually pays him.”
Sanders said the following to Keeler, according to Colorado Buffaloes On SI.
“Why do you not like us? You don’t like us, man. Why do you do this to yourself?… No, I’m serious,” Sanders said.
SubPrime also does not want to talk to CBS supposedly because of stories they ran about Shilo Sanders and his bankruptcy proceedings. They reported on an ongoing lawsuit that Shilo had with a security guard when he was in high school.
CBS Sports also said that Sanders was the second-worst coach in the Big XII conference.
“Sanders’ first season as an FBS coach started with a bang, but ended with six straight losses. He’s generated buzz and excitement by talking a big game and collecting strong transfer talent. But the foundation has cracks — see the offensive line for one example — as the Buffaloes transition to the Big 12 and face another tough schedule.”
Christensen is a proud Colorado alum, according to FanSided’s Glory Colorado.
SubPrime crossed an alumnus of his school. Not good Deion.
According to Glory Colorado, Keeler called SubPrime “a false prophet”. Keeler was mocking Sanders’ religious views. He also called him the “Bruce Lee of BS”
I reached out to Keeler Monday night and he was gracious enough to speak with me by text. He said he could not comment and would “have to respectfully decline”.
I am planning on going to see Colorado live when they play at the University of Central Florida. I am looking forward to meeting SubPrime in person. I have a few questions I would like to ask him. If he’s willing to answer them.
I would also like to shake Keeler’s hand and perhaps have a beer with the man who is not afraid to poke the bear.
