    I've been pretty disappointed with Kriegal since he resurfaced, although I don't read everything he does. Whitlock is Whitlock -- provocative if not exactly poetry. O'Connor is maybe the most industry's most predictable columnist, uncanny in his ability to have an opinion that matches mainstream America every time. Yahoo! is the next great sports site if it isn't already.

    Doesn't matter if it's yahoo or fox or allupinit.com, a good story is a good story.

    It does matter, though.
    A message is undeliverable without an audience.

    That's what we're here for, though, to post the good stories :D

    While all three are nice guys, I don't go goo-goo, ga-ga, over them. The days of having someone else tell me how to think about a subject are pretty much over. I can think and formulate an opinion without the help of those three.
     
  8. Specifically, this time around, when MSN.com decides to go with MSNBC for sports like it does for links to news, business, entertainment, etc., that will be the end of foxsports.com's little smoke-and-mirrors claim to being one of the leaders.

    yeah, that msn.com deal does help a lot.

    I would agree with you to, but General Electric is a dicey company, too.
    They're gargantuan and they're media holdings are many and strong, but I'm not as confident without Jack Welsh.

    Coming from a man who spends half his life defending the opinions of William Rhoden

    Correction. I defend Rhoden against those who allude that he writes only about race issues. Big difference.
    And trust me, I don't spend half of my life defending him. I have a life.
