    That explains the shot at SportsJournalists.com in the comments. Funny.

    He probably spends a lot of time on the internet but I doubt he is that good to figure out your book and give it a negative review.

    My identity's not exactly a secret, but he'd have to actually care enough to try.

    That is the dumbest list I have ever seen, and that covers a lot of ground.

    As soon as a SJ list was proposed, I thought of Kobe Bryant. Perpetrated an unpleasant act on a young woman--that's not disputed, is it?--and then bribed his wife to look the other way. Damn.

    Vick and Tyson are too easy.

    Should any women be on the list? I can't think of any.

    Yes. And all Craggs had to do was use:

    [quote author=Tommy Craggs]He talked about "IQ judgment" and Wall's "wild, out-of-control style" and said something about robbing a bank and used the phrase "Yo, dawg, look at me" and referred to Wall's fans as "the wrong people," and I swear, in the sneering way he said "the wrong people," in the little bit of English he put on that middle word, you could read the whole damn history of redlining in America, and then a little later he busted on the kid for not having a dad.[/quote]

    Instead of:

    [quote author=Tommy Craggs]This fall, Colin Cowherd went on ESPN Radio and called John Wall a n*****. A few days later, amid great hue and cry, he went on the air and called him a n***** again.[/quote]

    [quote author=Tommy Craggs]goes on national radio and whispers "n*****" and no one in Bristol feels obliged to say anything.[/quote]

    Bigger sensationalism does not topple Cowherd. Unfounded attacks do not topple Whitlock. Ivory tower proclamations do not topple Albom. It all just adds to the echo chamber, making the noise louder.
