I was expecting this thread to be about a recall on corduroy pillows.

It might be, we're not sure.

I'm looking forward to the upcoming story, "Bill Belichick has Discovered the Cure for Cancer." As much as we love football, that headline would imply an even more important revelation.

Ray, it's NESN.

You DO know who owns them, right?

That's like Al Jazeera coverage of the Vatican.

Seriously, NESN doesn't know that football players wear pads.

I've seen some good coverage on NESN and by Kyed . This is all on the reporter. To imply that the identity of the starter was revealed, then write that bullcrap is really Bush League.

I refuse to click NESN.

BTW, Kyed is the ***hole who kept tweeting last week when the team had to be down to the 53 and there was one more cut to be made, that he "knew" who it was, but he wasn't going to tell and that it would be a surprise.

Bush league journalism.

...or the headline writer. Readers assume that the person who writes an article also writes the headline, but it's seldom the case. More than once I've winced at cheesy or misleading headlines attached to my own work.

Didn't know you were a writer. Freelance?

Not exactly -- I'm an expert on a particular odd subject and write tons of articles, etc. about it. And headline writers ALWAYS miss the point of them.

Some intentionally mislead the readers about the content of the article. Internet headlines are probably the worst because they are clickbaits that tell you nothing about the article.
