The fishwrap's ace investigation skills

How to cover a big story.....

It seems that going to booster functions and not asking questions is the way to get information.  Who knew?  I guess I could have worked at the fishwrap.  Along with many others here, I used to read the Times every day,  Jim Murray was a gift to us.  When I lived overseas, I had a postal subscription for a while.  No longer.  I live in Redskins territory now, and the Post is so bad, that when there isn't enough Redskins news, they sometimes combine the Sports and want-ads.  Really.  But at least they are willing to take the Redskins to taks for their failuresl, and try to hold them accountable to the fans.

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of BruinsNation's (BN) editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of BN's editors.

Total abdication of responsibility

just$c* doesn’t want us to ask certain questions so we won’t. In fact, we won’t even acknowledge that the subject exists. Is that what you learn in journalism school? I doubt it.

And how about Cheatie Petie’s admission that he cheats: “Carroll quickly answered, saying that when he first got to USC his goal was to build a program where, ‘everyone was coming after us.’” How do you make sure everyone is coming after you? Cheat. You know, when Cheatie’s right, he’s right.

in the orange county register today, there is a article about the 2008 mens tennis team being stripped of the pac 10 title for using a ineligible player, giving the title to suc. how did the pac 10 know? it was self reported by ucla athletics department. another example of ucla doing the right thing while the evil empire denies,whines,covers up and hides their head in the sand.
