Curran Offers a "Mea Culpa"
 
Curran's on WEEI today, and he is taking his penitent beating about the Brady article. What I found interesting was his comment that he's spoken to Brady about it and explained his side, and that Brady basically told him "No problem".

Brady seems, by all accounts, a very easy-going guy and not one to hold a grudge, particularly not someone he has a good working relationship w/, which he does seem to have w Curran.

Plus, there's also the possibility that there was some truth to bits of Curran's article and that Brady just overcame the odds. The surgeon himself said he healed twice as fast as the normal athlete would.

Did Curran elaborate on the article, his source, etc?

Does he need to?


Curran's job isn't to report the facts, or to be accurate, or to be insightful, its to generate page hits, and I think people forget that sometimes.

News is a business these days, and its driven by advertising.

I'll report that to William Randolph Hearst.

I wish that if Curran's source is in fact the disgruntled medical staff that Adam Schefter has heard was spreading false information on Brady that he outed him. I know that would never happen because Curran will never out a source even if they give him bad info.

He'll be the one selling ad space to maintain the castle.

This cat begging money was spotted in one of the cities of Belarus. He stays on one place with a note that reads “need money for meat and fish, bless you”. He doesn’t leave his place and protects the money just with his sight. His owner was found nearby. It was an old lady. She told the story that she had rescued the cat from the slaughters, but at that time she had already owned some pets and couldn’t feed them all, so he decided to let the pets earn the money for themselves.

He believed that as much as anybody, except for the technological differences between the eras.

Anyhow, reporters and analysts make mistakes. Evidently, Curran's not trying to run or hide from his.

I know, why aren't we talking about Ortiz' slump or runners stealing on Penny 24x7?? Man, EEI has been unbearable of late...football season is upon us and it can't get one minute in thanks to the most uninspiring, boring & tedious Red Sox team in recent memory.

Well, they did for about 5-10 minutes or so before they got back to Red Sox talk. WEEI gotta pay lipservice to football every week or so. Probably talk football because there are a lot football, non-football stories to talk about. Favre unretiring. Mike Vick's 60 minutes interview. Tom Cable punching out his assistant. Lots of Xs and Os to break down on the proper way to break an assistant coaches jaw.
