Around SBN: Sean Keeley's Week 12 College Football Buffet

I couldn't believe this. I was totally expecting the mainstream media to slap down this dumb blogger. I have to say Blogger 1, Mainstream Media 0. Ups to the moderator. This blogger is an intelligent and classy guy. Watch the video.

just watched the video

i swear ken rosenthal is such an retard. the whole time he accuses the blogger of going to far in naming names and that professionals like himself, while may be thinking it, would never write specifics. hello you idiot, this guy is just a blogger, he doesn’t get paid for writing. there’s this thing called freedom of speech. i can say someone is a cheater, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he is.

while ibanez himself is pissed off, the blogger never came out specifically and said “i think raul does steroids”. it was merely: based on the evidence and the whole steroid era (where EVERYONE is under scrutiny), raul ibanez comes out as a hitter who could fall into the category (end of career hitter putting up insane numbers) of possibly using PED

I like the way in the video

the cameras , and lighting make Jerod Morris look like a greasy, shinny, slob (aka Nixon).

Rosenthal is a douche. He talks like he never reported on anything in the wrong way. If he is mainstream media he does what they all do. Say one thing one day, then changing it the next. The mainstream guys are looking for what is popular at this time, and never caring about what they say, or said.

Rev, if you ever get, or have, to prove yourself like Jerod. I suggest wearing something nice, and pressed, and using the makeup person. Even if on the radio.

P.S. Bring a gift for the make-up person, and anyone else involved with the production that might help you look good.

Roaring fire, pipe, bearskin rug, etc.

Check it out

The production gets better from left to right. They don’t care about the guy on the left. ESPN called up some station in the midwest, and asked what the minimum charge would be to rent the studio for an interview.

Now the guy on the right had everything he ever needed.

And you know about the power of first impressions.

Indeed

Rosenthal is so obviously wrong, too. Rosenthal is saying that one should not publish one’s opinions, or question a situation. Basically, he is claiming that a journalist must turn off his/her mind, and stop thinking…or at least, never say anything you think. Once upon a time, Rosenthal was a real journalist whom I respected, an alum of the same college paper for which I was also a sportswriter. Somewhere along the way, probably when he started appearing on TV, he forgot the investigative aspect of his profession and lost his way. It is the duty of the media to question, question, question. Be suspicious of everything; question everyone.

Power of first impressions

Exactly. That’s why I was expect the blogger to get blown away. However, he was articulate, calm, and rational. They tried to set up the wrong guy.

Angel Pitching (Adenhart), Angel Defense - get past that.

These guys are unreal

Jared is 100% right in his reasoning and if Raul Ibanez is so passionate, then he should be out there confronting the union which has blocked testing at every turn. We “can have his stool?” That’s exactly what the Baseball Player’s Union has been giving the fans since this whole thing erupted.

Rosenthal and Gonzalez are such incredible hypocrites. These are the first guys to barbeque any player as long as there is any inuendo. Frankly, I think they’re just pissed that it was first voiced on a blog.

I’m proud to be part of a blog where people can state their opinions however “unsubstantiated.” I can clearly remember that in 1986 there was plenty of speculation from the “ordinary” that Canseco was juicing. If we suspected it, you know damn well the baseball writers did too and yet Jose beat out Wally for rookie of the year. Maybe if the writers had the balls of bloggers in 1986 Wally would have won that award.

Go Jared.

This season just seems jinxed. If it can go wrong, it does
