Time to unveil a new, semi-regular series here at PSAMP. I had too much fun with Hines Ward’s meta-apology to Ben a few weeks ago, so now I’m going to use the format to highlight some sports journalism. Some bad sports journalism. LOLspeak will expose these turd-worthy articles, showing how patently ridiculous they are.
I’ll pull some of the silliest paragraphs and completely LOLify their concepts. Yesterday, PG writer Ron Cook lashed out against fighting in hockey. Pretty poorly. Let’s take a look at the true depth of Ron’s absurdity.
