Is SI.com the new ESPiN? Today they posted this about the expenses of Gordon Gee's bow tie collection. The only connection the SI article (not CNN) made to football was that Gee called TCU and BSU the "little sisters of the poor." It is not even on espn.com







I thought that article was one of the dumbest, most pointless things I'd read in quite a while. Who cares how much he spends of his own money?!
No, Sports Illustrated dot com is not the 'new ESPN'.
We as a fanbase are not a persecuted people.
Taquitos.
eSECpn, the TMZ of sports entertainment.
Tomorrow
Controversy sells. SI has always been as hard on OSU as ESPIN. Do you not remember the snow job they did on Tressel; the lengthy article based entirely on conjecture and hearsay? The one where they ripped Tressel because someone heard from someone else who claimed that Tressel rigged a raffle 15 years ago at Youngstown St.
Controversy--real or manufactured--sells mags and gets eyeballs on your website. We have to get used to it.
Yep, we are tOSU and they will cover anything we do because our fanbase will obsess (myself included most of the time) over the smallest piece of information, and then stop short of rioting when it isn't positive coverage.
I wouldn't have it any other way, but when you're the best you have a target on your back
What was the point of this article other than to create a stir against Ohio State? I'm sorry but this one was completly classless as far as I'm concerned!
If you've ever read Dennis Dodd's spewage that he writes all the time about Ohio State, it would absolutely infuriate you.
I thought it was interesting that he had 7 MILLION DOLLARS in expenses...Nice expense account!!!!
