| 1626302209892790274 | So bummed that @dirkchatelain will be leaving the OWH. He's long been one of my favorite writers – locally or nationally – and we've been so lucky to have him here. Good luck moving forward, Dirk! https://t.co/djJGqMziE0 | 2 |
| 1625003903916953604 | @dirkchatelain Bradberry admitted it was a hold! The sports media got called out by picking against the Chiefs and are crying about it! The refs finally did the right thing and you didn’t want it called? Cry me a River | 1 |
| 1627773928578994189 | @dirkchatelain The latter has allowed him to maximize the former. I wrote about it after the Penn State game, and it's pretty much been more of the same every game since. https://t.co/bTGkF87ae1 | 1 |
| 1626390960077668353 | Very few people I’d rather share a byline, newsroom, or joke with than @dirkchatelain. He set the bar for a generation of aspiring Nebraska sportswriters. Kept the standard for Nebraska athletics high in an era when someone needed to. Great writer, better guy. Happy for him today https://t.co/jFhS5okvLG | 1 |
| 1626423426071072772 | @dirkchatelain Congrats Dirk. Love your stuff. Not afraid to rub people the wrong way for the hard truth. Too bad the @OWHnews is forcing so many people out. Seems like management wants everything to come through @JournalStarNews | 1 |
| 1624984223038771200 | @dirkchatelain If it’s a hold, it’s a hold, shouldn’t matter when it happens. Dude got him with the right arm first then the left. | 1 |

| 1627709129199321102 | I keep thinking about what @dirkchatelain said about the Nebrasketball team’s combo of backgrounds and personalities making them seem like a sitcom cast and what a very 80s version of that show open would look like. | 1 |

| 1626412924599259137 | @dirkchatelain Selfishly, I’m disappointed, because of what you and your work means to Nebraskans. But our loss is your gain. Congrats on a graceful exit, which is not easy to accomplish. I’m expecting big things ahead — in whatever you choose to do. | 95 |

| 1626430000533471235 | Going to miss @dirkchatelain work w/ the OWH. “24th And Glory” and your story on Milt Tenopir at the end of his life are some of the best sports stories I’ve ever seen. Kudos for what you’ve done and I trust there’s some great opportunities ahead. https://t.co/dVCjnO2KuI | 65 |
| 1626427040852213765 | @dirkchatelain Omaha — and all Nebraska fans — have been lucky to have you, my friend. I spent 20 years at SI and parting ways with the mag opened up opportunities I never knew existed. You will thrive. Congrats on a great run at the OWH! | 46 |

| 1626423587874787333 | @dirkchatelain Well, hell. I'm mad at Lee Enterprises, sad at the business but glad for you. Mighty happy to have been your teammate and asking questions the readers wanted answers to. | 41 |
