Yeah, Florio lost me as a fan. Sorry, but f*ck him.
I don't mind criticism, when it's warranted. In fact, my first response to the article was, "That's a pretty **** move by Rodgers. Would love to get his side of things."
Then I thought about it some more and realized it was nothing more than a smear piece with inconvenient timing. Rather than do any kind of investigating, he portrayed Rodgers to be some two-bit ******* who kicks puppies and pushes old ladies down the stairs.
To top it off, when I learned the facts and commented on them, my posts started getting deleted. I did not use derogatory language or call any names. I posted the facts and asked for a retraction. I don't agree with censorship, and that he deleted my posts pointing to the facts of the case absolutely destroys his credibility as it proves he's not interested in the truth, only sensationalism. It's quite hypocritical too, especially when you consider he chastised WBAY for removing the video.
Now he comes out with his smug and arrogant "Last word." Sorry, last word my ***, Mike. You're nothing but a spineless ***** with zero credibility. I'll be composing a nice letter to his partners, asking that they address the issue accordingly.
It's a shame, really. I really enjoyed his articles as he tends to cover things not ordinarily covered. It's unfortunate that I can't take him seriously any more as he's proven he's a complete, ignorant joke with no integrity.
