It is populated by a bunch of articles written by talentless hacks. This applies to sports and everything else as well.

Speaking of Rossi, wasn't he promoted to columnist shortly after DK? He's now listed as a staff writer.

Also, his Monday article about being a fan instead of a reporter at a Pens game: :face:

Yeah, that was a 'WTF?' column by Rossi. It seemed like a rush job. He wrote this part: "The hope was to take in a game as a paying customer and find out if there was any fan left in a hardened former beat reporter. There is, just not of the team I covered for so long." I wish he would have expanded on that but then brought up that girl who had her seat kicked. Awful stuff, Rossi. Their quality plummeted when DK left.
