Gentlemen of the Press--fire Phil Rogers

Phil Rogers: Red Sox bid puts pressure on Yanks November 13, 2006 "This time, the rumors almost certainly are right. The Boston Red Sox are getting baseball's top international prize, 26-year-old right-hander Daisuke Matsuzaka. The deal could have big implications for the White Sox."

• Rogers violates policy by saying one team is getting a certain pitcher. First, it hasn't legally been decided. Second, if it had, the high-bidding team doesn't "get" the player. So, 2 lies.

THE MEDIA WHO CONTROL BILLIONS IN PLAYERS' FUTURES ARE A RUNAWAY FREIGHT TRAIN, ARROGANT, INSULAR, AND WITH THE 100% SUPPORT OF BUD SELIG AND THE ULTIMATE PRIZE, THE WRITERS WING OF THE HOF. BUT YOU DON'T CARE.
