Fox Sports Power Rankings...bunch of a**holes 

Post#1 » by MyInsatiableOne » Fri Nov 13, 2009 3:25 pm

This was their snarky ****' comment, placing the C's at #2:

"Nearly lost in Minny, couldn't stop the Suns and then struggled in Jersey. So much for 82-0."

I'm not pissed they put them at #2, but they acted like **** jerks about it...
It's still 17 to 11!!!!

That's weak. The article should've mentioned the 5 games over 7 days part. When the Celts have 2 or 3 days rest they beat very good teams like Utah by 20 points. That being said, 72-10 is still conceivable.

Not even regarding 72 wins (which honestly I don't care about) I agree with you, they had a BRUTAL schedule those first 8 games...**** FoxSports...

Who cares what Fox Sports says, no matter what their opinion is or their power-ranking is the season is still going to play out the same way. Fox could say the Celtics rank at #16 and the Bobcats are #1 but thats not going to affect who wins the championship ( The Celtics ) in June.

Other people or your circumstances should not dictate your moods.

Don't let an article bother you.

I take Fox News seriously (the only news channel I do), but not their sports...

Your professors have about as much credibility as Wikipedia, BTW... :roll:

Seriously? hmmm....o well, difference of opinions I guess....I respect that. It's really hard to take any news source seriously though, it feels like they have ulterior motives or something. I'm probably just being paranoid. ummm...for the record, it was my International Relations professor that said that and he criticizes many news source, not just fox.

Any news channel that has conflicting ideas with the mainstream liberal media is obviously wrong. How have you not gotten this memo by now? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

On topic...yeah this is BS. Good thing rankings don't mean **** when you're holding the trophy. 8-)
