Grittybeard posted:I thought HamNo was supposed to be Gawker's fighting dude, I mean, if they were to have someone actually fight people. Much like Petchesky and occasionally Tom Ley, he's one of Gawker's go-to "get ridiculously self-righteous and indignant about something" guys. Petchesky in particular can take the littlest thing and turn it into a matter of life, death and moral outrage.

Yeah Petchesky used to be pretty solid with his hockey coverage and things but he's gotten really insufferable lately.

People tweet too much. I get that it's part of his job to maintain an online presence but telling your side of the story through a series of tweets is very very dumb. Like you could write a longer blog post, or release a statement, or what not.

If you CTRL+F Simmons' NBA All-Star Ballot column from last week and search for the open parentheses symbol you get 81 results.

When I was in grade 11 my english teacher kept on telling me that I wasn't using commas properly. So instead of learning I ended up just putting secondary clauses/ideas in parentheses. It wasn't till grad school that I realized how stupid this was (sometimes I still do it because my brain has been further corrupted by reading Simmons; I mean it was that or not reading him, gun to my head who would say no)

i definitely get the idea of having to cut your teeth on some low level gigs from the start, but come the hell on now Darren. Just because unpaid journalism has been going on forever doesn't make it loving right. Same exact thing with any photographers or graphic designers being told to "do it for the exposure". 100% bullshit. E: vvvv yep DJExile fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Jan 27, 2017 |
