One of the "Rules of the Yard" is Be Civil (no personal attacks). I guess that means other yard barkonians. I think Peter King is fair game.
Way back when, maybe 2 or 3 years ago, I used to read Peter King on Si.com. I enjoyed the articles and found them eclectic and refreshing.
Unfortunately, Peter King loves himself. Unfortunately, he loves his quirkiness. Unfortunately, he has the football knowledge of a-- year old boy.
He gets so excited about this guy being the next Jerry Rice or Joe Montana. CALM DOWN PETER KING.
Before last season, or perhaps the season before, when Peter King proclaimed that
Julius Jones was no less than the second coming of Barry Sanders and Emmitt Smith combined, I knew that Peter King was putting himself out on a limb that he could not defend.
Julius Jones would have to swoop out of the heavens and pick up the fat, squirrelly sportswriter and save his career.
But no, Peter King avoids any ill will through his love of young phenoms. Through his love of personal, tearful stories. Through his sincere, and honest disdain for
Michael Vick's actions (but not his person).
Anyway, I swore I would never read Peter King again, but as a
Dallas Cowboys fan, Si.com forced me to read the trash that is Peter Kings' writings. From this point on, I will comment on that writer's trash articles on Si.com.
I want to know if there are more Peter King haters out there.
Do you exist? Am I alone?
