Between McPancakes and InJustice, the fine people of Houston have very little inteh way of sports reading material.
the guy really has no self-respect. saw him at river oaks theatre seeing the wrestler. dude was in ratty sweatpants and a t-shirt with a couple penny-sized holes on the side. got up to pee during the movie and saw him in his aisle seat pouring the popcorn from the bag directly into his mouth, strays falling all over him. just gross.
The Chronic sport's section is a complete joke, sites like CF and Battle Red have left them in the dust. All they have left are locker room quotes, that's it, and they only get those, because they spew the party line.
Don't forget Queen Solomon, if he hasn't already been mentioned. These guys don't have to be fans but at least learn how to write an unbiased fact filled story. Change that, somewhat fact filled cause I really don't think any of these guys can pull facts out of their cracks if it bit em there.
Combine that with the fact they now have those stupid advertisement videos that start automatically when you load any page on their sports site. Chronicle has to the worst sports section of any city with multiple sports teams.
How the hell does John McClain have a job, seriously? The guy has no clue on football or really life in general.
Back in the early to mid 90's,...A long, long, long time ago, before computer networking went nuts you could read a printed Houston sports paper over breakfast or on the toilet ....and life was good. yes siree.. .
You had a couple choices til 1995, sportswriters like Mickey Hershkowitz, Jerry Wizig, Dale Robertson (annoying but had real writing chops). The Post used to run coupons for Rockets admission against unpopular teams...for the exorbitant price of two tix for 11 dollars. They were nosebleed seats but they were easily "upgraded" because those games seldom were more than 1/2 full. I read both papers for a total cost of 50 cents I think...if that. Course on the internet most of the Comical is free, but it's also crap. /crustyoldfartmode
