The John Daly Saga Continues...


We reported yesterday that a writer published a story outlining Daly's lengthy PGA Tour disciplinary file. Well, Daly was not happy about this and today twittered the journalists number saying "Call and flood his line and let's tell him how we feel".

Ok, first off this is fucking hilarious, and I love when celebrities strike back against the media. Saying that, this really isn't the journalist's fault. He is not making any of this up, and it is public information since this file was released in 2005 during a lawsuit against Daly.

Daly has made this mess for himself. He can blame it on anyone he wants to, but at the end of the day how can he? This journalist didn't make him drink, show up to event drunk, or be cited by the PGA 21 times for failing to give full effort.

I love your antics Daly, but you can't blame anyone but yourself for the mess that you are.

Sox Owners Don't Want Globe


"The owners of the Boston Red Sox are denying reports that they might try to buy the struggling Boston Globe. The team released a statement Thursday that said neither owners John Henry and Tom Werner nor any other affiliates of the Red Sox were involved in efforts to buy the newspaper. Published reports have claimed Henry was exploring a deal to take control of the Globe along with the New York Times Co.'s stake in the Red Sox. The Times Co. announced in January it wanted to sell its 17.8 percent stake in New England Sports Ventures, which owns the Red Sox, Fenway Park and other properties. The Times Co. also has threatened to shut down the Globe unless its unions agree to cut annual labor costs by $20 million (Sportsline)."

We are seeing this all over the US. The time of newspapers has passed. I honestly really don't know many people that buy it anymore. I get everything off the web, so the only people I see buying it are people who do manual labor. Eventually the Globe/Herald will fall, and everything will be through the internet. Times are changing, we are already seeing it in Seattle where a couple of their newspapers have gone to just completely online business.
