You mean other than the fact they base zero percent of their content on actual fact or credible sources. They write noting but what if scenarios with no credible way to quantify predictions.

There is no journalistic integrity or editorial oversight. Anyone in the world can submit content - and it shows. Occasionally you can find a nugget or two on there but it more typically than not reflects a fan bias without attribution under the guise of journalism (as oppose to this board or a fan subscription service).

For example, their most resent email broadcast headline was "Did Miles Lie About QB Situation?" but the article is titled "Analysis: Les Miles contradicts himself in dropping 2-QB attack", and the only use of the word "lie" in the article is in the context of residence - "But therein lies the problem with Lee playing very few significant snaps since the first Alabama game..." tigerdroppings.com is far more reliable!
