Hope Tommy is alright.
Personally, I don't like Vescey and think he places sensationalism ahead of journalistic integrity.
My personal email exchange with Vescey after his article criticizing KG as the 'Counterfeit Ticket':

There is a reason your analysis is no longer deferred to during the playoffs, just read your Garnett article to find out why. Pure drivel.

yea, this attutude is why i tripped myself up on that confusion this morning, how can you respect this guy. i mean, i know its personal email, but your a sports columnist at a major paper, how can you respond to criticizm with a redneck joke?
i mean, as a proffesional i expected something like
"I stand by what i wrote, you are entitled to your opinion
-sane proffesonial"
not what he wrote back to you, which was pretty much
"nananananna-nah! your dumb!"
but regardless, lets forget that fool, I just hope tommy is ok. i wonder when we can expect an update?
