Augie Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Couldn't be worse, right? I never go there, but I hear all the complaints.
WotAGuy Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Are we allowed to read her columns if she's critical of the Bills? I feel so conflicted......
YoloinOhio Posted August 3, 2017 Author Posted August 3, 2017 Couldn't be worse, right? I never go there, but I hear all the complaints. i don't read much from TBN either because I don't think the columnists are any good, but I'll give her a shot since she's new. You never know, could be decent. I don't care if positive or negative. Just looking for knowledgeable columns worth reading.
BillnutinHouston Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 She's taking a lot of ribbing on Twitter right now from NY area fans for moving to Bflo, but the 716 army is busy setting them straight.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 I was already followng her on twitter. @viccarucci Absolutely thrilled to welcome @KMart_LI to the @TBNSports staff! Tremendous talent and an even better person.
H2o Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 I wonder if her reporting may be a bit skewed at times? It's a nice add for visual purposes though

There should be some negative reporting, because we are not on a Super Bowl run. Objective and informed would be nice. Edited August 3, 2017 by Augie
26CornerBlitz Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 @TBNSports The News will add a new sports columnist later this month: http://buffalonews.com/2017/08/02/kimberley-martin-join-buffalo-news-sports-columnist/

Objective and informed would be nice.of course. Negative when warranted is fine and expected. I just like balanced reporting and knowledgeable writers. Not Skurski who thinks you need to fit 90 players under the salary cap. Or Sully who embarrasses himself at press conferences and instead of gathering real info just dusts off old columns and changes a few names around.
JM57 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 of course. Negative when warranted is fine and expected. I just like balanced reporting and knowledgeable writers. Not Skurski who thinks you need to fit 90 players under the salary cap. Or Sully who embarrasses himself at press conferences and instead of gathering real info just dusts off old columns and changes a few names around. Sully has roughly 5 columns drafted up and then just fills in some blanks like he's playing mad libs

Definitely a more diverse reporter than they've had in the past (seemed like mostly all grumpy white males) Those evil white males. Would like to see the responses if if you said bitchy black females.
The Jokeman Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 How many columnists do they need? Can we get an actual sports writer out there?
PromoTheRobot Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 New blood is good. I hope she let's her own voice be heard and doesn't get dragged down by the lifers. I hope she sticks around longer than Ty Dunne.
CanadianFan Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Ditto. Was she good with inside scoops in NY?
chris heff Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 She left Manhattan for Buffalo? It's Newsday, she left Nassau County for Buffalo.
