I heard B & G sat that they've known about the Addison Russell situation for at least three weeks.
Why wasn't anything said in that period of time?
Don't you think it's incredibly smug for someone to say they knew about a breaking news story all the time but neglected to report on it?

Someone who isn't blocked, message this to Julie. See if we can trigger her into going off on them and getting herself fired

They said the Cubs have known about what's up the last few weeks. B & G never said they knew about it.

They certainly seemed to have a lot of information about the situation for people who heard about it last night.

This happens all the time, and for good reason.

For example, people know about Tiger Woods's cheating for years but didn't say anything until they couldn't not say anything. While I understand the stark difference between infidelity and domestic violence, reporters (usually) maintain a level of journalistic restraint...

...until they have enough evidence from sources to make their reporting rock solid (i.e. "they won't get sued").

Sorry, Ron, you are wrong.
Dan said to Jason something like, "How long ago was it that I told you about this? Three weeks?"
Jason said, "Yeah. Three or four weeks."

known about what, exactly? that Russell beat his wife? how did they know about that? how would anyone know about that unless Russell was bragging about it.

Dan said during transition (paraphrasing) was the Cubs have been aware of an unseemly family situation.

They intimated last year that Addison had some issues with cheating and being out on the town. I don't think they knew about the DV rumor.

the DV issue is the only one that matters. NOBODY cares if a baseball player is cheating on his wife.

Instead of saying that you've known for three weeks, just say that your contact has given you additional information. Like Sarley said, it makes you sound like some smug asshole. "Yeah, I already knew because I know everything already, sometimes even before it actually happens, because I'm that good at being an afternoon sports talk radio host."

I'm out.

They got it from Terry's guy, who knew it for six weeks

If they knew about it for three weeks, and believe domestic violence accusers should be given the benefit of being credible as victims, how could they not report this? Didn't they shield Russell by not saying something?

For a station that took the position that Patrick Kane was guilty without actual evidence and that the Blackhawks should have pre-emptively suspended a player without evidence or charges to support the allegations, and a show that now prides itself on being ahead of the curve on social issues, even moreso since the presidential election, how could they stay quiet when they had such knowledge of a situation this explosive?

Shut up.

Like I said, because Russell is Brown, Goff gives him the benefit of the doubt. Because Theo is Jewish, Bernstein gives him the benefit of the doubt. Because Theo would never get a bad guy.

And, of course, the Cubs are partners with the SCORE.

So Kane was guilty right away. Both Goff and Bernstein loved kicking him. He's white, it's hockey and the SCORE doesn't broadcast their games. They were still on Kane after the mother planted fake evidence to get a conviction.

But they won't do it for the brown Cub with the Jewish President. And the Score broadcasts their games.

We all know what this is. It goes without saying.

I think we should notify the proper authorities.

Trying to remember what Leash posted again. If you don't think someone on the board was arrested before, you are naive. If you don't think someone on the board is a card-carrying member of the KKK...
