There are plenty of dumb calls to sports radio by dumb fans that can be laughed at. But fuck meatball writers who are all over the board coming back later and shitting on fans for their opinions.
Well yea - and you have to understand a lot of times those manipulative pricks push stories to rile up the meatballs, just to get clicks/views/listens/impressions.
So they really are cynical, narcissistic, manipulative bastards who will act all superior when you call them out on it - "fake news" didn't start with politics, despite the douche who popularized the phrase.
Sports teams have known for a long damn time just how sleazy many of these guys are....
