10 p.m. has it right.
Sports isn't even close to hard news.
The ethics reporters face on the news side shouldn't be a problem for sports writers. Let's face it, if you are in Portland and reading about the Blazer game, you don't care if it's slanted toward to the Portland point of view. Heck, some people WANT it that way.
Same is true with weekly newspapers and high school sports.
Sports coverage is a different animal than hard news. The rules are different too.
I don't think people are being jealous, I think that some just look for any reason to point out conspiracies and complain about something. OK, maybe some are jealous.
All I know is that I enjoy Canzano's writing and will continue to read his columns in the big O for the writing if nothing else. For all we know, he will be great on the radio and be swept off to ESPN like others I have enjoyed here.
I say enjoy him while he's local, because I expect big things from him, if not from the radio show, then from his writing.
