shysocks Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I was at the makeup game against Detroit in September 2012. Easily a playoff atmosphere. Mully's claim has no basis in reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:07 AM) I just can't help but think how that looks to a young aspiring female sports journalist. This top ESPNW reporter got her big break from that eBay auction, kind of a catch 22 with all of the women's issues she fights for. It's probably one of the reasons I don't take her seriously. I'm pretty sure it's one the reasons she got one of her jobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jimmy0 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 5, 2016 -> 08:38 AM) Was Sarah Spain a reporter before her Craigslist date stunt or was that the way she got her foot in the door of reporting? There are 2 giant reasons why she got into the business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 QUOTE (knightni @ May 5, 2016 -> 07:08 AM) Bruce Wolf, Rich Koz, and Dan Bernstein are the same guy. Prove me wrong. I think you're right! The only difference is the character. One blames the democrats for everything another blames republicans for everything and all three just do whatever they can to get attention.

lostfan Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I couldn't ever see Dan Bernstein making a mean-spirited Freddie Gray joke like that though. When he gets called out for being insensitive and/or racist it's usually because he was being patronizing or belittling someone when he shouldn't be.

I'd definitely never tweet it though and I'm not semi-famous. CSN has done a decent job lately though. Siera Santos has a pretty nice rack too.

bmags Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I don't think she's bad but she definitely suffers from the same shallowness that all of the other espn announcers suffer from (kirk fowler, my boy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Mendoza is just a straight up baseball/softball junkie. she is just absorbed into the sport, there isnt much else besides baseball/softball, so it just comes off as she has very little personality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle Buffalo Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 1st place Sox win in extra innings with a Grand Slam (not a walk-off, I know), and on ESPN Chicago, 18 of the first 21 baseball stories/videos feature the 1st place Cubs - who were rained out. I guess that's a fairly even split. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listen to The Score interviews podcast, and at least they seem to make an effort to bring on some Sox guests. I'm sure the main body of the shows is mostly Cubs talk, though. I used to listen to ESPN 1000, and they didn't even try. They had Doug Padilla following the Sox, and Jesse Rogers following the Cubs. Rogers had to be on ten times more frequently than Padilla. Now they don't have anyone following the Sox at all. Keep in mind, I live out of town, so I have to go somewhere for Chicago-centric sports news, and SoxTalk is my first stop.
