Tolstoy Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 If this doesn't tell you that the sports media–strike that, much of media–is just finger-in-the wind regurgitation of conventional opinion, I don't know what will. It is a discredit to the really good reporters out there who are trying to bring truth to light: http://www.realclearlife.com/sports/no-7-overall-pick-josh-allen-looking-like-first-bust-of-this-years-draft/
Bangarang Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 What site is that and why should anyone care? 1
frostbitmic Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Fake news Before this past game wasn't he supposedly looking like the best rookie QB ? 1

Dave Allen Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 This was lazy writing (I won't use the word 'reporting') from someone who did nothing but look at the box score. I'm dumber for having read it. 1

Keep your political opinions and insults to yourself.

RealClearPolitics is a trash site and so is anything connected to it...
DocLawless Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 I could care less about the website, as I have never heard of it. I was referring to the needless insult to those with views that might not align with yours. No need for that. Me putting you on ignore doesn't alleviate any others who you might have insulted. Not going to put you on ignore as I imagine we have some things in common regarding the Bills, I guess I just don't see the point of political insults on this particular forum ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 1
Fadingpain Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 LOL. The favorite pastime of TSW posters. Find a garbage website engaging in dubious reporting, consume what they are dishing out, then B word about it while promoting said garbage website in the process.

HOUSE Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 You guys should be suspicious of labeling a QB a bust when Allen had 2 good games and 1 bad. Keep in mind many sports writers labeled him a bust well before he came to Buffalo.
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 The nice (?) thing about the internet is that any yahoo can not only play at Hyde Park Speakers' Corner, but they can monetize it as well. Never has 'caveat emptor' been truer. Perhaps it might be better stated as 'clickyat emptor'.

The Process Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Intelligent Media.....a contradiction in terms. 1
gjv001 Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 ? the piece not reporting. Typical of what we receive from most media's today.
US Egg Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Just now, The Process said: Intelligent Media.....a contradiction in terms. Pretty ugly they are.
SoCal Deek Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 The article is an opinion piece. Why does it bother anyone? This site is full of people with opinions. Everything you read shouldn’t cause you to light your hair on fire!
JinxedBill1 Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Most sports media is a take on opinion and identity politics. I've lost interest and so has many others. I miss the days where the top story was a feat of strength or unbelievable win rather than someone kneeling or opinion on politics.
