Simmons and Klosterman both claim DFW as a major influence, too. Maybe it's on the entrance exam for becoming a middlebrow dipshit with an inflated sense of self-importance.

I meant among public figures. I'm a DFW fan myself, which is precisely why it chaps my ass that three of the most thoroughly contemptible people in modern media claim any connection to him.

That said, it is entirely possible that I myself am a middlebrow dipshit with an inflated sense of self-importance.

I mean, I don't have a problem being a dipshit with an inflated sense of self-importance, but the middlebrow part.

Yeah... he sure did.
For those that missed it...
Pat is doing the positively ridiculous segment from the concourse.
There's a kid there with a sign that says "HI MOM" " and "I love Emma" on camera as they come back from the bumper,
Pat says, "There's charlie saying hello to his mom and his crush, emma, but I don't know if that's responsible journalism".


Nice catch, chas.

Seems like the majority of the other on air personalities are allied against Bernstein here.
Like I was saying earlier, this is going to turn out to be a turning point.

I believe you may be right, he got a taste of being on the razors edge with his Bears bullshit so now he's been fully enabled and charged up for another go around of fake sources and lawyer talk with this Hawks stuff. Looks like he's a step out on this one and the media people are now actively taking shots.

It may turn out to be a bridge too far.

Again, Danny is so concerned about the court of law and his really smart lawyers. He never thought of the fraternity of sports world including media types. He should have.

I really wish we could have Danny Macs thoughts on this.
I think Bernsies day of free tickets to most teams is done.
Just imagine this conversation:
Little Dan"Dad,how coem we don't get the good seats or go to that many games any more?"

Dan:"Son,some people have a problem with the way I report stories"
Little Dan:"But if you where being truthful wouldn't you be in the right and people defend you and support you?"

Dan"Um"
Little Dan"Dad,how come we never go to the locker rooms any more?"

Maybe that's why they demoted Raanta, because he gave little Jason goaltending lessons. We need Beardown to get to the bottom of this.

She was a fast machine she kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman that I ever seen
She had the sightless eyes telling me no lies
Knocking me out with those American thighs
Taking more than her share
Had me fighting for air
She told me to come but I was already there
Cause the walls start shaking
The earth was quaking
My mind was aching
And we were making it

No, he will just stop talking about it and the story will die. Spring training games start this week so he will start reading lists of similarity scores to player "X" and yelling at callers who complain about the bleachers not being re-constructed in time. Then it's on to "who's your guy" and the draft.

Bern's has no friends in the media, especially The Score.

I suspect that's correct. If bernstein were ever to leave the Score I believe the venom directed toward him by the co-workers left behind would make that directed at Murph look like a warm hug.

I have heard that Terry really can't stand bernstein.

Blog names him as a source. therefore he is culpable. All she has to do is file the suit and Dan is gone. No way is CBS going to pay for his mistake. CBS can remove themselves by canning him. Dan I think got a bit of too smart for himselfities sort of like Obama except he is being called on it. I also do not see him getting new paper out of this, if he does it will not be prime like he is used too.

You're an idiot.


That was my take away from chas's post as well.

Nice job working Obama into a story about a Hockey player though

Terry makes comments about this and having to work with him. He acts like he is saying it in jest. I do not think he is. I believe Terry has never been to Dan's home for instance. Isn't that odd for such a 15 year partnership?

So the issue with Duke is that it took them 9 months to get rid of the accused rapist?
