There is no depth to which Larry Brooks of the NY Post won't lower himself. I'm not linking to his column because it is so filled with vitriol and stupidity that doing so would be a disservice to those legitimate journalists to whom I do link. However, here is the conclusion of this morning's brilliant screed by the NHLPA's NY-based mouthpiece:

Finally, this just in. Slap Shots has learned that Bettman and O.J. Simpson are joining forces. Bettman will help Simpson look for the real killer while O.J. helps the commissioner look for the league source who leaked the memo that ridiculed the PA 24-Percent Solution.

Hey genius, legitimate journalists state their facts when they have them, not insinuate they know something they don't. For example, what if someone said "We've just heard that a certain NHLPA-loving sportswriter is up to do an endorsement of a certain mash-based product. The tie seems natural since the writer has been often seen at the bottom of this product's bottle." Does that mean anyone knows anything? Nah. Just means someone is being a duplicitous jerk.
