    You're right.
    Hard to argue.
    He still fabricated.
    'Bron voyage.

  2. That and someone copy and pasted that stupid "Bron Voyage" line in there about five times more than necessary ... ;)

    No, no ... Carole Leigh is now spreading her wisdom near the Bay Area. :D

    Said it before and will say it again ... Albom's rep as a newspaper sports columnist is WAY overrated. A 50-inch game column? WTF? Most columnists are limited to 18 to maybe 25 inches. This effort on the Pistons' final game needed to be cut in half. Less sizzle, more steak. What doesn't get in the paper, save it for your book, you Big-Earred Midget.

    Mitch gets 50 inches because he's Mitch.

    And you could substitute "Mitch" for any high-profile writer/columnist in most papers, I'd imagine.

    But as I said -- they've had a falling out. The Dwarf and his wife, Snow White, are no longer fond of Carole Leigh.. seems she "didn't do enough to protect him" during the Final Four flap...

    Yes, getting ready to cut her new newsroom by 25 percent.

    I guess the Alboms don't seem to realize that almost any other editor who actually cared about journalism would have fired him, regardless of APSE awards, radio shows and readership.

    Understanding that this is obvious, but someone had to say it ...

    But let's keep our focus on journalism. ::)

    She doesn't know the meaning of that last word.

    And Mitch keeps blasting Hashweed Rasheed, who's fond of the term "cut the check."

    Wanna give that a second thought, Mitch?

    50 inches on deadline? I think Mitch needs to pee in a cup.
