Every single journalist from the Chronicle or ESPN or any major newspaper source for that matter, sucks because they know nothing about the Rockets. How dare they say the Rockets are average?!? DOWN WITH JOURNALISM!
Don't you dare to badmouth Clutchfans. I think Feigen is pretty good, I like him. He doesn't write sensationalist pieces, but I actually think that's much better. He is solid. I'm glad Blinebury is gone.
Feigen sucks altogether. I think he avoids any conflict with the Rockets and never seems to have any breaking news as Mark Berman. Mark Berman is a pro's pro.
Feigen is like the rocket's puppet. He seems to never break any story or really write anything that rockets don't let him.
That's what I've been saying for soo long. Our local media sucks. The only good media person is Mark Berman.
WHAT BATTIER DIDNT MAKE 1ST TEAM ALL DEFENSE?!? BUT he is the greatest defender of all time in the history of the world. TRAVESTY!!!
Let's see. Apparently the NY Times for saying that T-Mac was going to be their savior. Sports Illustrated in the past. Other media outlets such as TNT for having guys like Charles Barkley, even though they are being paid to make opinions like that. ESPN for having "Lebron" hype and "Kobe" hype. CF can't take criticism at all.
ESPN isn't local news. They are pretty good if you want news regarding the New York or Boston. The chronicle should be a place to get actually news on our sports teams. They tend to write why the team sucks and always will suck instead of the facts. If you write nothing, but opinion pieces..people are going to hate you as you never provide information. Providing information and then explaining it is how one establishes themselves as an expert. Bima has done a better job than most if the chron staff. Clutch's writeups are generally way more informative than the chronicle. I have no idea why Clutch doesn't have a weekly guest basketball column in the chronicle outside of not wanting to tarnish his good name. Lance Zierlein is a good blogger for the chronicle. KRIV has Mark Berman who is good.
I should add that not all ESPN is bad. Hollinger tends to take a very even numbers approach. I do think ESPN does a good job on the great teams.
some members here do write very good pieces on our team...truth is though we do suck, we dont suck horribly but one playoff win in over a decade, thats suckage...
Feigen sucks - I could not agree more. He works for the Rockets Organization. not for Chron. I saw his blog and it is funny how he answers the questions - any blogger who writes -"Hey Jon, I love your writing..." will definitely get his response. Cheap.
This. He is a chicken. Always afraid to say a word that may upset his paymasters(Chron or Rockets?). He is an "embedded-Journalist">
