Armando Salguero, quite possibly the worst beat writer in Miami, was fired from his radio show. He has since been sending nasty private messages on Twitter to people that make fun of him.

This is the same guy who went on a 10 minute tirade after being introduced on... The Herd... I think... when Peyton was making his "decision" and they brought in different beat writers.

The host introduced him as a beat writer, Armando immediately corrected him and said "I'm a columnist for the Sentinel", where the host said "Well, they are pretty much the same thing" and Salguero used his entire time to explain the difference and why he was better than a beat writer. He then said Peyton would come to Miami because he was familiar with the area.

gently caress he is awful

To be fair to Omar (and that really disgusts me to say), Evan Silvia has been making jabs all week at Omar and his newspaper, saying he has an agenda to push certain players. That makes no sense to me.

And Evan Silvia does not know possession/plural. Look at his twitter. It burns my brain HE GETS PAID TO WRITE

He's had a few where he's blocked like 10-15 people at once when people start mocking him openly.

How dare you blame ANYTHING on Tannehill you mother fucker.

Tannehill had a couple games where he blew the big pass (two of which would have given Hartline touchdowns) but he was certainly not given any favors by guys like Legedu Naanee (still by far the greatest Omar Kelley snafu)

A little bitter because of all of Silva's jabs at the Dolphins? Silva is fine, though I wish he'd editorialize less.

Silvia takes jabs at everyone that're not the Jets and he's usually reaching while doing it. I haven't really hidden my distaste for national writers who can't leave their bias at the door.

Plus his analysis is always awful. Rotoworld should really stick to fantasy football and injury updates - their player and draft analysis is usually way off

It blows my mind when people are so mind numbingly unprofessional that they cannot stop bias from entering their stuff.

Ive mentioned it multiple times but Evan Silva is awful about it. He had this weird strange obsession with Jeff Ireland and slams him out of nowhere constantly. Id love to know what Ireland did.

Dirt Worshipper posted:

To give a specific example of what he dislikes Ireland for, I think he has issue with what Ireland managed to put together player-wise with the draft picks from trading Marshall and Davis, as opposed to keeping those players. Keep in mind I'm not making that argument personally.

E: woa I meant to add that not delete my first post entirely, oops.

Silva has been doing it since 2010, before either of those things happened though. Ireland HAD to have done something behind closed doors. Or maybe Silva is just a big huge baby, I have no clue.
