I hated everything about this preview, from his initial complaining about having to write about the Bobcats to his general lack of knowledge about the team.

Makes me so mad... If they think we're so not worth it, then why waste their time?
A quote from the above link....
Did you get a load of this? Why does every reporter have to make a cut at our team. Every last one of them do it. They can all go to hell....Vincent used words like "disappointed... discouraged" in describing how he would feel if the Bobcats, who averaged 25.7 victories their first three seasons, do not play in the postseason. After reading his expectations, I was leaning more toward the word "delusional," but that's just me.![]()

Yes, these fellows are one of the reasons I stayed away from sports journalism, despite my interest in the subject. The arrogance, which is used as a mask for their ignorance; their "holier-than-thou" approach to "analyzing" sports, in this case, pro basketball. They lose sight of the fact, that their opinions are only that, and not fact. Maybe seeing their feeble-minded words and syntax in print gives them something akin to a god-complex, or maybe they read too much Rick Reilly and forget that sports journalism doesn't always equate to sports editorialism; Ricky Reilly is generally funny and self-effacing; most of these incompetents we've come across here have no concept of craft and subtlety, and just put their fingers to keys and hack-out a thousand or so monosyllabic words indicating how clever they are. I actually thought about writing a reply to the individual from the Star-Telegram, but then he may get the idea someone actually cares about his articles. Let's just be content in the fact that we're more adept to do his job than he is, and in that way, we should pity him![]()

Same thought crossed my mind. I mean, I know that they're just being dicks about it for the purpose of selling papers or magazines, and I should just ignore them. BUT, they're being so douchey about it...Originally Posted by TheBeagle
Hey, I'll tell you what we do. Hold onto the e-mail site for Jan. Let's watch as the season progresses. Then, when the time is right, we can all individually e-mai Jan and make him eat his words till he vomits! Nohing better than shoving their own words right back in their face.
That idea's not half bad...
