Merged: Did anyone read Canzano's hit piece today?

Televised media has similar standards. That's why people like Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless have jobs.

Oh trust me. I know. It's funny. I saw the Dick Schapps, the Peter Gammons, the Thomas Boswells and Shirley Povitchs of the print age as these rustic dinosaurs. Now I see that they protected their sources and demanded respect. These were the kinds of writers who won Pulitizer Prizes. I wouldn't urinate on media personalities like Skip Bayless and Stepen A. Smith if they were on fire and wrapped in asbestos suits.

@Mediocre Man doesn't troll, he wants to end trolling and have me removed as mod.
I guess we're gonna have to agree, to disagree. If it's not trolling people....

And I've said it before- IMO you do an outstanding job as a mod. Anyone that thinks otherwise, either doesn't have a grasp on reality, or is flat out butt hurt about something from the past.... Or both. (just my opinion though....)
 
I'd call Canzano a douchebag for writing this type of crap, but I doubt he gets close to a human vagina frequently enough for that metaphor to work.
 
I just finished watching Olshey's whole "exit interview". One thing is for certain, he is a good salesman. After watching the exit's, the only player that I'd be disappointed in returning is Aminu. Tho it wouldn't bother me if Leonard is gone.

But the bit with Canzano was hilarious.
 
Having Canzano write about the Blazers is like having me write about the Lakers. I'd be finding any and every way to write erroneous subterfuge on the team and undermine them in every way. I'd never go to the games except when Portland is in town. And then despite not being around the franchise or team in any way all season, I'd act like I have some type of insider knowledge on their horrible Laker culture because, well, I hate them and Damian smiled at me in the back hallway. I even got to touch his arm.
 
How much longer until Cazano replaces Sean Spicer for Trumps press secretary? He's full of shit enough, has no ethical standards, and is in the next stage of balding beyond Spicer, basically a perfect fit!

That wasn't his arm.

I can't believe you guys are surprised about this. Fuckin' eh.
 
What kind of a bush league columnist are you when the only legitimate pro team in town wants to revoke your access privileges?

And deservedly do...

We have ONE team in the four major professional sports, and he is a sports columnist that attended two games and spent zero seconds in the locker room. And yes, I understand he's a columnist, not a beat writer, but when you write about sports, you might want to actually spend a little time around the team you are paid to write about.

How the hell does someone who puts so little effort into his job still have one?
