Agreed on all counts, anything for a story right?...that's why its so refreshing when a reporter seems to genuinely care about the quality of his material (i.e. Friedman).

Also, ironically enough when I read this I was cracking open a beer haha, cheers man!

Yes. Media are idiots. Most of the time, when crap like that comes out, it means they have nothing to talk about.....In fact, in general they are always starving for any tidbit of controversy or always trying to stir crap up for no reason. Even Granlund's awesome goal yesterday. 6 vids and 2 articles on TSN's page about the goal and "ooh, was it awesome or show-boating?...what will the old school guys think? The "kids" think it's sick and cool!....." Holy shit man they are retarded. They annoy me more and more. So stupid....bah! lol Ok I need beer.

I hear ya buddy, it gets me pretty riled up too...the media just loves to blow these things way out of proportion. All you can do is ignore it I guess

Hey thanks man. It's something that really drives me nuts. How the heck is conference finals choking?...So the Nucks or the Sharks HAVE to win the cup every year or what?.....idiot anlaysts/reporters/pundits......idiots....
