Rick Reilly

Hey, I've read here for a while so I feel I can trust (almost) all of your opinions. I needed a place to express my feelings on a certain journalist, so I've finally decided to post.

Rick Reilly is the worst journalist I've ever read. His ending articles in SI are the biggest pieces of shit I've read. He's not even writing about sports anymore. It's him being self righteous and a snob. He's trying to instill morals upon someone who just wants to read about sports. Plus, his dick face that accompanies the articles just make me want puke.

When I've said this to others they've disagreed. How can people like Rick Reilly? He is what's wrong with America.

He's leaving SI
to go to ESPN, so you won't have to worry about him in SI for too much longer.  

But I definitely agree.  The frustrating thing is that he actually used to be good, several years ago, before he gave up and started writing feature-length Successories posters.

Damn dirty hippies are what's wrong with America, but that's a different story.

Washington state is full of
dirty hippies. I could be one of them.

J. Lo Fan: yeah, Reilly's a total dick. He's like the Steve Kelley of SI. Actually no; that's too harsh.

I can usually read Steve Kelley
without vomiting.  Laughing uproariously, sure, but not full-body-retch vomiting, as usually happens when I try to read Rick Reilly.

Oh, and by the way
Hey, I've read here for a while so I feel I can trust (almost) all of your opinions.

Give 'em up - we want names.  Whose opinions don't you trust?  It's been a while since there's been a good shitstorm on here, and by god, it's a slow news week, so start the naming and shaming - I want a trainwreck!  BURN THE GODDAMN TREE!

(note:  The preceding was a joke, do not actually name names)

I LOL at that part
Butters' parents are an underrated aspect to the show.

Now that I think about it
did Parker and Stone break the WGA strike? South Park's aren't written in advance IIRC.

by Matthew on Nov 15, 2007 4:41 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

I agree with you
But if you'll notice, none of them have current events.  So it's possible they made all of these knowing the strike may occur.

Possible.
I just surfed over to the studio site and couldn't find any info so who knows.

I did find out they agreed to a contract through season 15, so huzzah!

by Matthew on Nov 15, 2007 4:48 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

That's really interesting
I didn't know that.  Aren't a lot of people striking anyway to show support? And Simpsons is still under the WGA, so there are probably some shows that will stop.

*some* animated shows
some are so it's not clear. Most Fox properties, for instance, are under WGA.

Agreed.

Is that sparkles with everybody?

"I take it that didn't sparkle with her"
I'm going to use that whenever someone argues with someone else on this site.  "I take it that doesn't sparkle with you?"

By the way, to answer your question
Yes.  

Is that okay? Does that sparkle with you?

There, you got a name.

I'm not getting my SI
subscription at college, so maybe I'm missing stuff, but I have always enjoyed Reilly. He's normally very funny and writes about pretty good topics.

The Life of Reilly (book) was outstanding. I guess he's slipped in the past couple of years, but I still enjoy him.

Yeah, well, I liked "Who's Your Caddy?"
Especially when he got fried for saying, "don't be short."  Also when Deepak Chopra say he keeps warm by imagining a burning ember in his anus.

And when John Daly displays his "elephant trunk".
