Sports with Anthony Dion

I've been hearing quite a bit of backlash on the "Local Restaurantuer has Giant change of heart" article that ran in Wednesday's (4/23) issue of the Daily Journal and I have to say I'm pretty angered by it.

If you don't find the above article, or any article for that matter, to be particularly newsworthy or interesting to you then DON'T READ THE FREAKING ARTICLE! How hard is it people? I'm sorry that for one day you missed out on an AP story detailing the most recent torch protests going on in South America. There's other places you can go for your daily sports news. Do what I do. Start your day with espn.com and then head on over to cbs.sportsline or some other site for a different take.

This happens to be a small town newspaper and it just so happens that a certain individual who has helped me a lot with the local sports coverage asked me to publish an article he had written about the experience his good buddy had recently. There wasn't much else going on that day and I decided to do something nice for him when he has done nothing but help me out since the day I got here.

So again, if you don't like something in the paper then turn the page. No one is requiring you to read the whole thing. And it was just one day, one paper. I'm not going to make this a weekly thing or even monthly so please relax and enjoy our sports section because I really think we're doing some good things here.
