Where do you get your Sports News from?
    #5949556 - 08/10/06 01:20 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

I try not to use ESPN. I dont really like their columnists, and so much of the good stuff is "Insider" only, and as a dirt-poor college student, I really cant justify spending 20$ a month for pro sports dirt...

I tend to get alot of mine from local newspaper web sites. Chicago Sun Times has alot of great columnists that cover the Chicago and Nat'l Sports scenes pretty well. http://www.suntimes.com/index/sports.html

I use www.sportingnews.com alot too. I hate the lay-out of the site, but the reporting is generally top notch.

Industry sites like www.mlb.com and www.nfl.com are generally worthless for anything except scores and basic team info. mlb.com in particular is absolutely horrid.

Anyone have any favorite new ones they want to turn me onto?

NYTimes and Yahoo sports net. On Yahoo I can get every stat for every player from every game he has ever played in his career. You can't beat that.

Yeah, I like Pardon the Interruption alot...

I'm not even sure why. Kornheiser is usually the type of guy I would hate, but he's funny. Michael Wilbon is a great writer, and works pretty well on the telly too...

Probably my favorite sports show, PTI...

Dan Patrick's show is fucking awful. He is one of the most condescending, supercilious pricks I have ever heard, right up there with the uber asshole Francessa. Michael Kay is very good.
Still, all these guys being mentioned aren't really news guys, they're editorialist entertainers and a lot of what they say is an act. I once watched Mike and Mike simulcast on ESPN 2 and the supposedly ad libbed stuff was written down on a piece of paper. Which is fine as long as you know what it is.
