Mike Florio has a theory on the Dolphins QB competition: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/07/18/dolphins-see-post-draft-spike-in-season-ticket-sales/ quote:The Dolphins’ effort to fill those ugly orange seats at Sun Life Stadium is working.

I love how so many people think professional athletes need more positive reinforcement than a four year old. NFL QB's must be like fragile little butterflies. Maybe the Dolphins should even give Tannehill a mini-Lombardi inscribed with "QB Contest Winner" at the end of camp.

It depresses me that Florio gets paid a lot more than I do. E: For the crappy writing, not the lawyering.

Every sports broadcaster is guilty of overusing the word confidence to a horrendous degree. Apparently the fragile psyches of athletes go through more swings of extreme realization followed by crippling self-doubt in one 3-hour game than any of us knew. gently caress me, I just figured for many of them it was a workday.

Ehud posted:Mike Florio has a theory on the Dolphins QB competition: I like how the "flaw in that logic" is because Matt Moore and David Gerrard are bad so beating them out wouldn't boost his confidence. Not all the other reasons is a stupid loving thing to say. And yeah, he gave up being a lawyer to do PFT a long time ago.

Hockey goalies, man. You pull one too early or too late and you risk breaking them forever. Like horse or sled dog. Of course, they probably already suffer from some mental issues in the first place, given their chosen vocation.

PK would have the Stupid Newbie avatar, because he's not smart enough to set an av during registration and won't deprive himself of a triple venti white chocolate chai caramel macchiato to fix it.

FuzzySkinner posted:Apologies for necroposting. Probably a dead topic, but I wanted to expand on this. I agree with you, WKNR isn't an ESPN slave station, they are an affiliate. I'd bet a good deal of money that short of hiring Jerry Sandusky, ESPN isn't going to say a word about its affiliates' hires. Also, some background is necessary. WKNR is sort of the David to WTAM's Goliath. WTAM has the broadcast rights for all three big league sports. WKNR therefore has to get their wins where they can (Ohio State football, ESPN shows, Jim Rome), and grabbing a long time Browns beat reporter of Grossi's stature was a no-brainer in my opinion.

I'm giving him a pass this week though cause that transcripted speech was interesting. It does indicate that his column is best when he isn't actually writing it though.
