Pathetic. Front page is about Danaca Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. I'm guessing they race cars
Who gives a shite about them getting into a relationship. This is turning into TMZ. I don't want to live on this planet anymore

No.

People that are mad about today's sports media are simply creating their own prisons.

The ship has sailed. They should either tune in or tune out. No sense in being angry about it.

USA Today has a special mission to promote feminism. It's similar to the NYT's mission with gay rights and the Wash Post mission with blacks.

It came from their creator, Al Neuharth. It's actually a very good sports section. I read it every day at Starbucks.

2013.5 - 2009 = 4.5

if you gonna attempt a post count boom at least be able to subtract 2013 from 2009 :insertcastyhere:


eta: even if you use 3.5 years it still comes out to about 23-24 posts a day. you suck at math severely

After you get a certain age (I am 52) you start to realize that every other week there is a game of the year and every other year there is a game of the decade, etc.

In other words, nothing in particular matters all that much in sports because there is always another "big game" next week and even if your team wins a WS or SB or MNC you will still bitch and feel bad after their first loss next year.

USA Today feeds the nonsense because they make their money off hyping interest in something just like every other media outlet.
