And I will tell you exactly why you are threatened by the blogs. Because they hold you up to a higher standard of analysis and truth telling. You can no longer get away with nonsense or with claiming some special insight because that very day you will be exposed for having little analytical skill and no understanding of the game about which you claim expertise.
See: The original Primer. Not that I don't enjoy a good gay Piazza joke.
Last time this came up, someone said that they didn't think Costas really knows what a blog is. What Costas actually talked about last time there was a thread about this sounded more like comment threads to MSM articles than a blog per se.
he is trying to point out that he also is against the vitriol that sometimes occurs on sports talk radio, and is trying to come across as not anti-internet in general. obviously believe him to your own extent.
Really, a lot of those things detract from the article and are worse than nothing.
There are plenty with bad tone and rancor. Don't read those. I don't. BTF is by far the wildest part of the internet I hang out at. I mostly choose mailing lists where people post under their real name, which generally has a MUCH better level of discourse. I also post on BTF and a respectable financial forum which, as far as these things go, are generally well-behaved.
Bob, find the better places to be.
yearsminutes from now the things said by Buzz and Costas in that segment are going to look very silly.Fixed.
This is a valid point, but it seems to me that one of the problems with the Bissinger/Leitch smackdown was that it was on HBO, where part of the titillation is that you can say words that would get bleeped on the radio (or, in fact, nannied on BTF). If Costas wants the excitement of uncensored TV, then he has to live with the flaps created by uncensored guests.
