Exactly. Yahoo sports is the joke of sports media, by far. Only good for rumors.

Thongs strikes gold again, who gives a crap?

Wojnarowski and Spears are pretty damn good in my opinion...

I'll agree that Wojnarowski is good. I can't comment on Spears for lack of reading his material.

You're kidding right?

They are far and away the best NBA news source on the internet.

Yahoo is hit and miss with their articles. Woj is legit. i like his pieces but ive never read Spears or the guy who wrote this article either before this.

But theres nothing new here. The Bulls have been undervalued all year. Everytime they've had the big win it was always about what was wrong with the other team and not about what the Bulls did. Its OK though. I love the Bulls stepping on the overhyped teams throats in victory in front of the national medias face

I agree w/ this. I like Yahoo! Sports, but gotta take some of their stuff w/ a grain of salt.

If you avoid Chris Chase and Kelly Dwyer, Yahoo isn't bad at all. Chase has to be Special person, there is no other explanation, and Yahoo is an equal opportunity employer, so there you have it.

Well, Dwyer is pretty good, I like his positional rankings he has been doing over the last few years, the other guy I haven't paid much attention to.

Guys I like?

Simmons, Wojnarowski, Rosen, Spears...of course KC Johnson is great and Heisler is very good also. Most of the ESPN guys, Broussard, Bucher, Stein are okay...the stat boys over there...I have a problem with them because they seem to have an agenda, which I discussed earlier, Hollinger especially...

Nobody asked, but there's my two cents...lol

Yahoo is california based and they justify their bias because ESPN does the same thing in the north east. Yahoo is constantly trolling other regions and often tries to present Kobe in the most favorable light possible. They'll be someone you see that typically tries to boil Kobe and Jordan comparisons down to ring counts.

Yahoo, is catering to the mouthbreathing Laker fans that they (for the most part) are around every day, which, again, is what ESPN does when shoving NY and Boston teams down everyone's throats.

One of the big reasons why I like to get my sports info from the local Chicago outlets.

Yeah, a lot of people would look down their noses at that as being homeistic but its really no different than Yahoo or ESPN being regional outlets except ESPN and Yahoo are pretending to be national outlets.

Definitely. My outlook is this: I have no problem with homerism if they're homers for my teams. Haha :)

ESPN used to be good but then it de-evolved into this heavy handed network with a local sports talk radio influence. SC used to be anchored by guys who had some journalistic chops and not guys with self-promoting craptacular catch phrases.

And whats bad now is that ESPN is now in both the NE and in LA. So, when you watch the late SCs its really a case of idiocracy, where the pinnacle of accomplishment in life is making a bunch of babies, buying Kobe jerseys and driving on freeways.

Opinions are like assholes. JK! :)

I'm more open to Dwyer, but at all costs, avoid Chris Chase.
