Back when I was in the journalism business, before many of you were born, sports journalism was not considered journalism by most journalists. But the sports page sold papers, so sports "journalists" thrived. Outside of raw stats and play-by-play stuff, it's all contrived bullshite and always has been. You finally get to an age where you realize it, and think it just happened. But in fact, it always has been.

While we are on the subject.
Can we get back the old football box score? It was nice and concise and let you compare the teams with just a glance.
Now you have to click 4 times to get to any information all the online formatting looks like it was written for kids on Ritalin.

Agree. 90% of it is all fluff. It's just about creating the most controversy. Just like the so called news journalists, you have to take what the sports media says with a grain of salt. And it's amazing how often these experts get things wrong. Your average fan can probably do just as good as they do at picking games.
