Pat Forde is a Hack Volume II
I don’t know how many volumes we will have to run out here before someone gets their head out of their turd-cutter and cuts this turd from the roster of writers at ESPN. Forde lambasted Ohio State after losing their second straight National Championship game in a ridiculous, taunting manner. I couldn’t figure out why the acidity was so necessary then. And now, I can’t figure out why he needs to be so nasty about Big Brown and his owner.
I would get it if he was a contributor for Deadspin. I don’t think that we need to have the conversation reduced to attacks on the more well-established media websites like ESPN. After the Ohio State article, I emailed the ESPN ombudsman, Le Anne Schreiber, but she didn’t get enough response to make it a priority.
I assume Forde will eventually piss off a critical mass of people. I can’t wait.
