Vandermause & Packer Nation take on ESPN's Sal "I wanna swim with the fishes" Paolantonio
Last week ESPN columnist Sal Paolantonio wrote a verbose column on why he thought Brett Favre was an over-hyped player in the NFL. He took an excerpt from his book (on over-hyped players in the NFL) and updated it - and ripped into Favre's legacy. I joined the fray of comment-teers early on, when the number of comments was around 150. It's now over 5,000. Hot topic. At one point I actually got booted from the message board because some asshole reported me for a "violation". After a couple hours, I was granted a reprieve - then proceeded to get the "asshole" booted off (he was booting people off left and right - it was bullshit).
I've stayed away from commenting any more an Sal's bullshit for two reasons: 1) I don't wanna get booted again,and 2) I found out that when our boy Sal was on the Mike and Mike Radio Show and the Favre comments in Sal's book were brought up, Sal the Weasel conveniently attributed what was written about Favre to his "associate" - the other writer. Ohhhhh...I see how it is, Sal. After Favre retired, Sal thought it would be cool to bring up the subject again, but I didn't read anywhere that he attributed the comments to his "associate" this time. I wonder what Sal's grudge is?
I stayed away until Mike Vandermause, a columnist for Packernews.com wrote a retort of sorts to Sal's pile of shit article.
First, read Sal's take on Favre: Over-hyped: Favre didn't deliver in second half of career
