Default Will This Site Be The First To Parody Profootballtalk.com?

Has anyone noticed how lame the PFT blog has become since being assimilated by NBC? Not that the blog-by-a-dropout-lawyer was ever the cutting edge of football insight. It is basically just a rumormill - and who wouldn't love a soapbox to spread unsubstantiated gossip from ' unnamed sources'. Anyone who attempts to post criticism there will soon realize how quickly any even vaguely critical posts are deleted. I have often wondered if the blog owner's teenage son is the censor of that site. Ha! I would love it if this site would run a daily parody thread of that site. Pompous opinion is always a great source of humor.

Naww, no run-in. Sure, some of my comments get deleted there, but that is a general complaint by many posters. It isn't just a monitored site; it is a censored site that removes any/most criticism of the site's opinions. PFT developed an early following by criticizing other sites like ESPN for its reporting errors, yet PFT spreads many inaccuracies by blurring the line between facts and rumors. I just posted this topic to see if others get annoyed by the pompous attitude over there.
