Stephan A. is a charicture type which is what makes him ENTERTAINING......
These guys are the same as Rush Limbaugh, easy to be critical but hard to actually do.
Watch the games and have your own opinion on what you see.

Do you really think media actually influenced the price we paid?
My sense tells me no, of course, but I would not be surprised if Dolan was taking cues from Stephen A.

Stephen A talks sports and has fun being himself.
Rush Limbaugh is a merchant of fear and hatred. He manipulates serious issues - issues that affect peoples lives - in a way that a less educated or ignorant person can mistake as truth. Calling Limbaugh a domestic terrorist is being too kind.
Please leave politics out of this. I'm sure there is a different area of this forum where specifics of whether Limbaugh or Olbermann is a merchant of fear and hatred can be discussed with actual evidence instead of just name calling.

Interesting. You want to leave politics out, yet you invoke the name of Keith Olberman. You cannot have it both ways.
Its not politics, its "entertainment"......
There are legions of listeners who follow him and believe he speaks not to entertain, but as if his word is the gospel.
Its a propaganda drip technique. Its not his fault by the way, the guys makes a ton of money doing it. He is pretty good about telling his listeners he is "entertainment". The weak minded cannot comprehend the difference.
In sports talk, the weak minded also follow what they hear as gospel. Read some of the crap written by even our very own UK folk. Its regurgitated noise argued repetitively.

Did I attack Olbermann? Does it seem like I want to have it both ways? If I wanted to expose Olbermann I wouldn't bring up a general hypothetical, but go right with vitriol as you have. I presented people who represent opposite ends of the spectrum and people can decide what they want. Others can read the thread and decide who is the one that is being a political hack on this thread about Lin.
Somebody needs to call up SAS show and point out the fact that he was one of the media type who wrote an article on how Carmelo and Amare should change their game to fit in with Lin and just a few days ago, he backtracked and said it was ridiculous to even consider the notion of Carmelo adjusting his game to fit in with Lin.
SAS should never, ever, ever praise Jeremy Lin ever again. I do not want to hear him speak another word of Lin's accomplishment and I do not want him to here congratulate Lin, or praise Lin from here on out. Smith flip flops to much.
SAS is more offensive to me than Floyd Mayweather's tweet.
