ESPN sucks, so do thread closers

Recommended Posts

Yes, lost. Sometimes when they pan out to show all the 4 men, Bob just stares ahead vacantly like, "Zuh what are we talking about here?" I know he's probably got better things to do, but he keeps coming back (it's not like he only had one appearance for me to judge).

 

I will say he is better off on PTI where that sort of formula suits him better. He seems more stable on PTI, albeit also bored.

Yeah, Ryan's a big shot basketball writer in Boston. And his shtick is to act like he's above everything. At least on ESPN.

the perfect ATH show would be JA Adande, Kevin Blackinstone, Tim Cowlishaw and Michael Smith...now I'm not saying that because 3/4 of the panelwould be black, I'm saying that because they're usually the only guys on the show that don't have their heads up their asses. I guess Bob Ryan does pretty well in his appearances, also.

 

now that's NOT a slight against Woody...that dude is hilarious, especially when he's not trying to win.

 

No one on the show even comes close to the glory that is Cowlishaw. Hilarious and smart.

 

I also like JA Adande and Michael Smith. Everyone else is kinda meh.

Plaschke's "writing" is much worse than his high horse stuff on ATH.

 

I know it's cool to say all writers are idiots... which I won't really dispute... but, Plaschke takes the cake. As in I have no idea how that asshole was ever hired.

He's really bad, but Dan Shaughnessy might be worse. He thinks he's bigger than the subjects he covers.

 

By the way, I actually got a chance to recently read some of the stuff that Plaschke wrote about Paul Depodesta when he got hired in LA. What an asshole. There is no way half of that stuff should have made the paper. He had a vendetta against the guy the second he walked in the door.

The Yankees are winning, all over Sportscenter. Yankees losing, all over Sportscenter. After the BoSox beat them last Sunday, we didn't hear about how they have the best record in baseball, just how poorly the Yanks are doing. Bullllshit.

The Yankees played this afternoon. They have nothing else to talk about, except the usual filler for the 4pm Sportscenter.

I can't respect Plaschke for suggesting the World Series be played in a neutral "Baseballtown, USA," and r-r-r-reallllly can't respect him for that terrible anti-DePodesta article about "the old scout," who rose up with his failing body to suggest the Dodgers trade for some guy.

That was the greatest FJM entry EVER.

I love when Plaschke gets into full poetry mode.

 

He's such a goddamn douche.

Since Alaska doesn't have real writters we get a shitload of syndicated AP articles in our paper, which sadly means a shitload of Bill Plasche. He's god awful.

If you're Tom Brady, the last thing you want to do in the West Village is wear a Red Sox cap. A Yankee hat blends in better, and I doubt he wanted to be noticed especially after they knocked the Jets out of the playoffs this year.

No, the best one is Izzy Alcantara stepping back to kick the catcher in the face before charging the mound. There should be a YTMND with that synced to "move, bitch, get out the way."
