Deadspin's investigation into Toledo's cross country coach

Yeah, I guess doucher could be classified as a style.

 

I'm stunned there wasn't a "BRO!!" in there somewhere. Unless I missed it.

 

Haven't had a chance to read it yet, but I will say the Deadspin subhed "Horny Toledo" is inspired ...

 

I don't know, either. But her responses gave me pause.

 

The Toledo sports editor didn't like it much.

Toledo SE had a reasonable point -- his paper had the runner on the record, while Deadspin had her as "Andrea" -- but he did a terrible job of expressing that point.

 

Deadspin's treatment made the topic worth reading.

 

Frankly, I thought the Deadspin story was about too long by half, and boring.

 

"Deadspin really breaks the unspoken, but long-standing tradition that sports reporters only cover what goes on between the lines."

What? People try so hard to make Deadspin seem even more avant-garde and anti-establishment than it is.

 

"Why newspaper sports journalists don’t like Deadspin"

Too bad.

 

The Blade reporter wears a tie. He's credible.

 

To clarify, it was the managing editor making the comments.
