The fact that he felt the need to even reply to that tweet demonstrates just how much of a massive tool he is. He wants people to be aware of the fact that he could have donated the card, AND aware of the fact that he chose not to.

Which is the worse Peter King: the sportswriter or the lawmaker? Also what kind of weirdo feels the need to hand over a $10 gift card to a guy who can wipe his rear end with $100 bills? If you're gonna give Peter King anything, get him a book on how not to be a lovely writer with garbage opinions or something. haljordan fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Aug 8, 2013 |

In his defense how do you "donate" a 10$ gift card?

Sportswriter is completely lacking in that department, he thinks he's a good guy and doesn't recognize what a twat he's being when he brags about people giving him freebies while millions of people can't find work.

Didn't King one time express shock and dismay that a homeless guy had asked him for $5? $5?!??! ...or was that one of us parodying him, it all runs together

So yea, maybe she should make up her mind about which extreme of loving stupid she wants to skew towards.

Do other team's beat writers ridicule players with traumatic brain injuries? Ours do. He's referring to Joe McKnight who's been forced to sit out lately with recurring migraines and dizziness caused by a concussion.

@SI_PeterKing I was out of line for my question to Bernie Kosar here Saturday. My fault--no one else's. Will be writing about it @theMMQB Tuesday.

Seriously? Because today he said...Peter King posted:Kosar’s a good guy, and I have always liked him. But I found the comments pretty far over the top and asked rhetorically, on Twitter, whether Kosar had been drinking. Which brought on a raft of criticism from the Twitterverse, saying I’d gone over the top. I don’t think I was over the top, but many of you felt I’d gone too far given the sea of trouble Kosar has had in his personal life. (None of which, from what I can tell, involve treatment for alcohol, or any admission of alcoholism.) My point was, I think there’s a way to be critical of players and teams, and analysts should definitely do that. But Kosar went too far, in my opinion. And not just mine. Kosar called Rams coach Jeff Fisher Sunday to apologize, and Browns CEO Joe Banner said Sunday the Browns “don’t condone the personal and unprofessional approach” Kosar used. Which reads as a pretty fake apology.

It's more like a "some people thought I was wrong, but there are big-name people who thought I was right, so there." Of course, PK could've set out to write an apology, then realized he hadn't dropped a name in a while, then started thinking about craft beer and then started thinking about why we haven't been to Mars yet, which is weird guys, am I right? Get your act together, NASA.

I had to permanently mute Cimini because people kept retweeting his awfulness into my timeline. I wish I saved this quote but someone a couple years ago said that the Jets have the most miserable core of beat guys of any team on the planet (i.e., not the people like Jenny or Conor Orr that rotated through for a season or two and moved onto less green pastures).

I wonder if on some level everyone employed to write about sports in New York internalizes the 'it's so much tougher to play here under the bright lights' narrative and ends up being the most bitter, negative person possible as a result. Because it sure as poo poo seems that way from the outside.

Manish is decent when he's not writing anonymously sourced clickbait Jerry Springer op-eds and hit pieces, which because he works for the Daily News, he's asked to do pretty regularly. He does have quite a few connections in the lockerroom though. I like Mike Sielski although he doesn't cover the Jets exclusively for the WSJ. Kim Martin is terrible. Brian Costello is just a guy. RIP Jenny Vrentas.

Manish isn't getting the scoops he'd gotten during the past few years between Pettine leaving and Idzik trying to run a Belichick style ship, which has meant a lot more op-eds and a lot less interesting stuff.

I did like how the Congressman threw a fit over Sandy relief after the fiscal cliff was avoided, though. Also, I give Manish credit because of all the people I follow he was the first to suggest a special Obama press conference one Sunday night was about the death of Bin Laden. And Hugh Douglas was just fired from ESPN for calling Michael Smith an Uncle Tom.

Crossposting from Waaah in the N/V threadquote:Last Thursday, as an analyst for the Browns’ TV crew in the St. Louis-Cleveland preseason game, Kosar called the Rams’ receivers “horrible.’’ That included Tavon Austin, the top receiver picked in the 2013 draft, who was taking an NFL field for the first time. Kosar said their parents “would be embarrassed’’ if they were watching the game. Kosar ridiculed Rams backup QB Kellen Clemens, following up a comment by his play-by-play man about Clemens meeting the Pope by saying, “Bless me Father for I have sinned. I have to watch him the whole fourth quarter.” Bolding mine because that phrase is the funniest loving thing I have read in months.

They interviewed the Stanford defensive coordinator responsible for shutting down Oregon, even though not one of his players was drafted. It is very interesting reading how a bunch of scrubs stopped the best offense in college football. (Eat a dick, Aggie.) That was a really good and informative read. Thank you for posting it (even if this is supposed to be the lovely NFL writing thread).

I really loved the job Dan Graziano was doing with the division overall, but I don't mind Keim. The only thing is that those division updates were the only time I'd really find out what's happening with those three terrible jerk teams, I doubt I'll go to their pages much if I can get my Skins news in one place.
