There are things we do that made sense at the time. Then there are things like this. How at any possible moment did it make sense to him to tweet that when he writes sports columns?
Anyway, I don't read his articles, I just think he's such a donkey of a human being in general I wouldn't care what he thinks about anything. The Post has just horrible Sports columnists and he stands out among them. I'm between him and Sally the complete itch Jenkins as #1 butt wipe on the Post columnist staff, but they have a lot of company.

Yea Kazo, your right buddy. I was very frustrated when I heard it because his show during the day on 106.7 is borderline soapbox but he knows damn well he's a credited source for this kind of information. For him to pull a hoax like that was just utterly boneheaded and you know how I always try to defend someone but in this case I can't even do it! Stupid is stupid does, is that how it goes?

Close enough...
He's so pompous. I seriously doubt he'd have any tolerance if another sports columnist did what he did. I won't click on the link when he writes an article because I'm sure they track that. Yes, I realize my individual not clicking has zero effect on him, but it has zero affect on me to because I really don't care what he thinks whatever he thinks. His agreeing with me on something would be just as meaningless because my respect for him is zero.

He targeted PFT when he did it... and anyone that was listening to 106.7 the Fan at the time knew this. Mike Florio is upset because he he ran with a tweet /twit without verification and looked like a guy that simply "re-twits" other people's twitter reports instead of doing what NBC has paid him to do. Wise was told that maybe he should send a twit that it was a hoax but wanted to milk it for what it was worth. Little did he know it would cost him a months pay.
JLC never did things like this.... he made things up and used un-named sources as the bases of story. Wise made a bad joke on the radio using tools provided by his "other" employer. It was stupid on M. Wise part Mike has never been mistaken for a smart person.
JLC is reporting Fat Albert may be deactivated for the opener... he won't be called on this just like when he wasn't called on his reports that the Skins had tampered with Haynesworth before FA started last year.
Wise and JLC both need there creds. pulled.... Florio needs to get off his high horse or leave Pittsburgh off his site.... remember he reported that Terry Bradshaw was dead a few years ago.
Like I've said in the past.... 2 confirmed sources or it's not news, it's a rumor.
This was wrong but it was also funny that PFT had a 4 paragraph story on their site by the time I puledl up their page to see how long it would take for them to find the false story.
