First off, sorry for the inactivity Monday. I was wrapped up with other things. It's gonna happen from time to time when I'm not getting paid to write/update/edit the blog. Don't mean to sound defiant, but it is what it is.
That being said, let's start off Tuesday's readings with this article about the Marlins bullpen which technically appeared in the Miami Herald but is really more of a PR piece. I'm not going to name names but the print media covering the Marlins is on the whole, the softest coverage I've ever seen. Except with Joe Girardi of course, because he didn't supply off the record information. But what irks me here is this statement: "The Mets spent 35 million more on the bullpen than the Marlins spent on their team." Actually the number is 8.5 million dollars. Sure, K-Rod's contract is 37 mil, but that's over THREE YEARS. His 2009 salary figure is 8.5 million dollars. And they didn't spend anything on J.J. Putz and Sean Green, they traded for them.
Last I checked, a reporter is supposed to write ACCURATE INFORMATION to his/her readers.
Pahokee HS's President won't allow Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin or his staff on campus until he apologizes for one of the 1,000 foot in mouth statements he's made since presiding over Rocky Top. Hope the same ban is extended towards Nick Saban.
Always need a little daily dose of Kobe-bashing. It's good for the soul.
