I don't particularly mind the format but I find it interesting that Shaughnessy likes to play the moral authority on issues such as steroids, adultery, and conflicts of interest when he himself: uses material from old books and presents it as new material; when he accuses someone of being a liar but does not have all the facts; and acknowledges that he can't be bothered to collect the relevant facts even though it is his job.
Even when he makes a valid point, he surrounds it with his laziness. He questions the millions that Epstein has wasted on free agents (fair enough) but starts with "Not sure if Edgar Renteria and Matt Clement are still on the books...." Dan, would it kill you to find this stuff out?
My carping aside, its your typical Shaughnessy fare. Good for some and not so much for others
What was that last crack about Kraft dedicating some song to Shank? Just a joke?
ReplyDeleteAnon 9:44--there was a crack of Elton John dedicating "Tiny Dancer" to Bob Kraft.
ReplyDeleteIf Elton John were to dedicate a song to CHB, I think "The Bitch is Back" would be a good one
I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch
Oh the bitch is back
Stone cold sober as a matter of fact
I can bitch, I can bitch
`Cause I'm better than you
It's the way that I move
The things that I do
Bitch set me up...
ReplyDeleteThe Objectivedouche says, "a much needed and informative column by my Danny boy!"
ReplyDeleteAbsolute dead-on analysis here. No other jock sniffing sycophant in this town has the wit or guts to tell it like it is like our favorite Curly Haired Boyfriend. If you read SOSH and the comments on the boston.com sports articles you will see that Dan Shaughnessy is actually the only person who criticizes teams in this town. He's so hard hitting and witty. He's almost as good as Michael Felger.
