McNamara outside all seem to think he has team insight.


He's actually the most intolerable of the BSS (247) writers. Arrogant as all hell and posts ridiculous rumors to stir the pot. I think he's been crucial on the business side of that website but on the public relations/content side he's an unmitigated disaster.

He does seem to have some sources but he runs with a source or source's opinion, exaggerates it, and pimps it as a valid possibility.

Edit: In McNamara's defense, we don't have any legit reporters that have legitimate sources within the Hornets organization, so that kind of puts McNamara and Mackel in the limelight cause they are probably the closest thing we have. You can probably credit the Hornets organization for a massive part of that and keeping things internal.

He's still an arrogant dick though. In his podcast he starts off with a "joke" about himself wrestling a bear, and his money's on him. I think that part of him actually believes that. Also, that rant on the Official 247 Twitter during the EG10 saga was as bushleague/selfish as it gets.

Don't get it twisted though, I still would recommend BSS for any Pelicans related content. It's one of the better blogs out there for any sports team and the depth of coverage is out of control. It's a shame they aren't catering to a larger audience where they'd be rewarded for the actual time put in.

Agreed. He is arrogant and pompous. He may have one source and seems to run with any "opinion" that source has. He will treat every rumor as fact. He also will play Fletcher and change his story multiple times in order to keep his options open on his wild rumors. He also is like Fletch in that he throws everything at the wall and when one thing hits, he claims that he "called it." Is it coinsidence that Fletch retweets MM's tweets constantly? They are cut from the same cloth. MM just is more arrogant.
