Sally Strikes Again

If you do email her, be respectful. I know we do a lot of venting here, but you will get much farther with the reasoned argument than with the pejorative insult.

The nicest thing I can say abour her is that she is a bitch. The worst thing I can say is... well unprintable.

The worst thing I could call her rhymes with bunt. :biggthump

Forget about emailing her, she's probably eating this crap up. I think she loves to ruffle our feathers.

I shot an email to Kornheiser this morning with the subject: Your girl Sally "Skins hater" Jenkins.

Cool. That's pretty much what I was going to say to her.

Here's what I sent her.


Sally,

For the life of me, I can't understand why you haven't written about the Redskins in the past 3 or 4 weeks, yet in today's WP you have so conveniently, probably from your New York office, decided to crow about the NY Giants, the Redskins' opponent this weekend.

Now I'm sure you will absolutey deny having anything personal against the Redskins and their fans because, after all, you are a journalist. And I'm sure you want to mention, like one of your articles stated, wrongly I might add, that the Redskins have played the fifth weakest schedule in the NFL this year. But if you must write articles about the home team at least include a few during their winning streak.

Your credibilty is being seriously undermined and questioned amongst the fan base in this area. If you must continue to write for the Post, perhaps it should be for the
New York Post instead.


P.s.

I'm really starting to enjoy these burgundy colored glasses!

Here's what I sent her.

Dude, that's perfect!

why would anyone let a women with limited football knowledge get them in an uproar?forget about her

If you want to send emails they should go to the post and not her. I would also wait to send her emails until after we defeat the G.

Excellent email (especially the PS!)...couldnt have said it better myself, great job!

Are you suggesting that it is more effective to send them to the editors, or that it is inappropriate to send them to her personnally? Just clarifying.

Just clarifying.Complaining to her will not stop the post from using her. If enough people complain to the post they may make a change in who writes for them. I live in the Va beach area and our local paper does a good job of covering the skins. They give the good and th bad.
