GhettoDogAllStars 03-30-2007, 01:43 PM who are the PFT guys and what does PFT stand for? Pro Football Talk. Which is exactly what it is: talk. They mostly just pump out rumors. CallMeGreen 03-30-2007, 01:52 PM Pro Football Talk. Which is exactly what it is: talk. They mostly just pump out rumors. At the risk of being banned, I like PFT. Take 'em at face value and figure that they'll be wrong 50% of the time (Florio is a lawyer so what would you expect?). Otherwise it's a pretty informative and entertaining site. They gather a lot of timely factual information and back it up with links. In many ways, they're faster and more legitimate than some sites that have supposed journalists (such as Pasta himself). Longtimefan 03-30-2007, 02:55 PM who are the PFT guys and what does PFT stand for? ProFootballTalk....Just another of the many outlets that give people something to talk about. Believe it, or discredit it, it's all just about what it say's TALK. dmek25 03-30-2007, 02:59 PM can someone explain to me why everyone around here gets all riled up over what certain sports writers write? CallMeGreen 03-30-2007, 03:03 PM can someone explain to me why everyone around here gets all riled up over what certain sports writers write? I can't speak of others, but I get annoyed that some people like Pasta and PKing can a) have as much influence as they appear to, and b) actually fool their employers enough to keep their jobs. The c) option is pure jealousy on my part. I'd love to have that kind of unaccountable job!

Because certain writers are a-holes ArtMonkDrillz 03-30-2007, 05:59 PM I can't speak of others, but I get annoyed that some people like Pasta and PKing can a) have as much influence as they appear to, and b) actually fool their employers enough to keep their jobs. The c) option is pure jealousy on my part. I'd love to have that kind of unaccountable job!Accountability, I like that. I think many people around here get pissed at writers like Pastabelly, King, Dr Z, and Don Banks because it really just seems like their employers don't hold them accountable for anything they write. These guys frequently treat rumors as if they're facts and they use them to trash the Redskin organization. Many writers wouldn't be allowed to get away with the hack they pump out, but for whatever reason they seem to be set for life. GMScud 03-30-2007, 06:16 PM Because certain writers are a-holes Peter King and PastaBelly are deplorable. We're damned if we do and damned if we don't with these assbags. Peter King picked the Dolphins to play the Pathers last year in the Super Bowl, just a microcosm of what an moron he is. And Pasquerilli unfortunately has ESPN as his soapbox so people listen. We're an easy team to create drama around, and he takes no shame in exploiting it. But he's rarely correct about us, so whatever. Clayton and Mort make him look like crap regularly. Lenny boy isn't even the 3rd best NFL writer on ESPN Lady Brave 03-30-2007, 06:51 PM I have no use for him. He was once asked a question by a member of ES what he thought of Skins fans. After a bit of debate, His response was, "I hate you f*ckers." He really does and he doesn't try very hard to hide it.
