Schefter is good and Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) doesn't always scoop things himself but he follows a lot of folks and retweets stuff very quickly and typically only very reliable stuff.

For a middle of the road opinion, I'm kind of "meh" on ESPN's AFC South guy, Paul Kuharsky. He has some decent insight and sources, but a lot of the time it just feels like he's pulling crap from other places without regard to the trustworthiness/newsworthiness of the sources. For example, twice in the past 24 hours he has used the Bleacher Report as a source. (though to be fair, one was kind of a "look at what this guy said" and the other was a "this guy thinks this but I disagree") He does turn around content pretty quickly though, so within half an hour or so of a big breaking event he'll have something posted on the blog.

The only remotely good thing about him is when he gets in shouting matches with dumb redneck callers and just starts openly insulting them. Oh yeah I only ever read his articles/tweets/chats but I can see that, especially from his chats on espn.com, he can be very snarky but half the time I don't blame him because it's stupid people asking stupid poo poo or pulling stupid gimmicks like putting "Vince Young" in as their name and "Winning Games" in as their "location".

NC-17 posted:He doesn't even need to go back that far. Does that guy really not remember the 2010 Divisional loss to a Jets team they curb stomped a month earlier? This gives me a bit more hope. While Shaugnessy is a loon, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who would place serious money on the Texans to win this weekend.

PFT calls out Stephen A and is right about itquote:“Chip Kelly makes decisions over the last couple of years that, dare I say, leave a few brothers feeling uncomfortable,” Smith said. “I think that’s fair to say. I mean, we’re sitting here looking at some of the decisions that Chip Kelly makes and I’m like what is up? What’s up with that? I mean, it’s like you’ve got to be his kind of guy, you know? And I’m like, well, Riley Cooper’s your kind of guy?” quote:“Let’s get beyond the system, the operative word is ‘culture,'” Smith said. “The culture is what resonates with me more profoundly because I’m looking at a Chip Kelly and I’m like, really? Now, you’ve got to remember, where did I work for 16 years? I mean, this is Philadelphia. You understand what I’m saying? I’m always in Philly, and I’m telling you right now you’ve got people walking the streets and, hell with it, you’ve got brothers walking the streets going like ‘What’s up with Chip? I don’t understand this. I really don’t understand what you’re doing.’ Now I’m not saying I know, I’m just saying that it does strike me as a tad bit odd. I’m going to repeat this. Gone: LeSean McCoy, Jeremy Maclin, you know, DeSean Jackson. Staying: Riley Cooper. Really? Really? OK.” Stephen A should stick to being bad at basketball reporting instead of doing bizarre cherry-picking bullshit fishing for race issues in the NFL.

Man, the follow-up tweets and soft-backpedaling are pretty amazing This is my favorite: quote:By the way.... I am racist but Roc Nation seems to have something missing in its sports clientele. Wonder what that is???

Ehud posted:Do any of your respective ESPN beat writers contribute worthwhile content? James Walker just reposts stuff from various sources. Tania Ganguli for the Texans is pretty decent. I think she's been the only one who has done it since it used to just be per-division, and Paul Kuharsky (I think he does the Titans now?) never did any in-depth original stuff.
