Sports Illustrated

Sports Illustrated has apparently gone down the tubes lately. People on forums are calling it a "tabloid" and a "rag." The reason I've checked? Hines Ward - February's Super Bowl MVP - was quoted several times in a story about his trip to Korea as being very rude, arrogant, and egotistical. One of those quotes, for example, is "I don't have anything to say to him (Cowher) after what he did to me, after how he treated me. No. The numbers I put up, the seasons I had for them. To keep on bringing in guys…"

Turns out the quotes were from last August while Hines was in limbo about his contract being renewed and re-worked. He explained as much to Channel 4.

Screw SI and the horse they rode in on, parading year-old quotes as if they're current.
