Sports Mockery links are not allowed here... according to Zack.

Also... knock it the **** off copy/pasting articles this long. Takes forever to scroll.

actually, that one article is infinitely more interesting than many locked threads or posts pertaining to the Patrick Kane story on this message board. Sportsmockery usually has a lot of BS but this article is not one of them even though it is purely opinion. So if you dont like it, then move on kiddo

Did we really have to post the whole article on here?

did you really have to quote the whole article?


He Hate Me: just an interesting story on how Buffalo writer is trying to prove Kane guilty in the court of public opinion and why he would have motives to do so.

Bullet points! I almost crashed my Volvo trying to read that shit.

its too long to bullet point and not worth it to read while driving!

basically Tim Graham is discrediting any story/witness that puts Kane in a positive light(although it seems those witnesses have good reason to be pro-Kane)

Good point. I don't know why bamainatlanta is trying to kill HHM.

The thing is, I'd live because Volvo and Bama would have innocent deaths on his conscience, all because of shit formatting.

That article starts out with some good commentary and analysis, but unfortunately, like most of his stuff, devolves into rampant speculation.

Not an update, per se, but interesting that Kobe was arrested so quickly. Previous information said it could be days to months to finish evaluating the rape kit results, usually faster for high profile cases. Then again, NBA stars are higher profile than NHL stars.

http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/basketball/nba/2004-09-01-kobe-bryant-case-timeline_x.htm

June 30, 2003: Bryant arrives at Lodge & Spa at Cordillera near Edwards, Colo., day before knee surgery at Steadman Hawkins Clinic in Vail.

July 1: A 19-year-old employee tells sheriff's deputies Bryant sexually assaulted her.

July 2: The woman and Bryant are taken separately to a hospital for examinations.

July 4: Sheriff Joe Hoy issues arrest warrant for Bryant, who flies from California to Eagle County, surrenders and is released after posting $25,000 bond.

July 18: District Attorney Mark Hurlbert files single count of felony sexual assault. Bryant says he committed adultery but is innocent of assault.

No, it's not. It's one of SM's hack writers taking shots at a damn good reporter in Buffalo who's been reporting whatever facts he has gathered and nothing more, unlike that fucking awful website which has served as a glorified tabloid in this scenario, throwing out whatever rumors their bros text them on a daily basis.

There was a story on the authors of that website online recently, and they're a bunch of St. Rita (Chicago-area high school, for those who may not know) graduates. Now, who do you think is more likely to have the facts here: a bunch of Chicago-area kids or a long-serving reporter from Buffalo where the alleged incident happened?

Again, I've seen nothing from Tim Graham that indicates he's "out to get Kane" or any bullshit like that. He's just been reporting the facts that he's been able to collect as he confirms them. That's how journalism works.

SportsMockery loves to whine anytime a major media outlet blasts them for being completely full of shit (which they are). They love to boast about the 30,000 followers they've gathered but if I followed 30,000 different people on Twitter I'd have a huge following as well.

SportsMockery is just about everything that is wrong with the blogger side of the sports media today, and I say that as one who could be classified as a blogger for this website. They are shit, and this website and this message board is better off without that bullshit.

He's also making commentary on those facts. Here he "witness shames".



And how about a little double standard on citing past reputation? You can't dare do that regarding the accuser.

And this bit from the article is completely accurate - you can listen to it yourself at the video clip embedded there. Not sure how you can say he's not biased after this.

Graham goes on to say if he had to name “three people in sports” that would be investigated for rape, Patrick Kane would be on the top of his list. He then tells listeners to go to Deadspin and check out Kane’s past.

I wouldn't think Graham who is an award winning journalist and reporter would just go off with info from the victims attorney. All of their points are bullshit and the commentary is asinine. The paper he works for has quoted the only two witnesses who have put their names on the line.
What does he get if the story isn't true? It would be a major black spot on his career and question his credibility.

Because a guy, who is known to be a huge binge drinker who gets black out wasted, who got into a physical altercation with a cab driver, and a guy who there are numerous reports of him beating/choking a woman during is drinking romp in Madison isn't a possible person to commit further acts of violence in the future? It sure as hell won't be the guys nobody hears about in the news for not doing these things.

You share his bias. At least you're not the lead reporter for the story.

My bias?

Because I believe Kane COULD of gotten into this situation (or at least be capable with the past issues that he has had) doesn't mean I believe he DID do it.

I've said numerous times on here that I don't know if he did it and am waiting for facts to make my opinion.
