It keeps getting more absurd:

Why did Ed Bouchette change to Cushing?

07:06 AM ET 05.13 | With Pittsburgh Post-Gazette writer Ed Bouchette changing his re-vote to Brian Cushing, a valid question is why. Interestingly, and somewhat inexplicably, one reporter (Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette) changed his vote from Byrd to Cushing. I reached out to Bouchette to see what was behind his 'outside the box' vote but he didn't elaborate beyond "they asked me to re-vote and I re-voted." I'm guessing it may have been some form of protest over having a re-vote in the first place. And I'm guessing his inbox is full of emails like mine asking the same question. Not that his was a swing vote or anything - it was just something that stuck out in the tally.

is there an upper limit IQ that if you are over, you are not allowed to be a sports writer?

in the age of the internet, I swear that 3/4ths of the people on BP are more intelligent and well informed in our casual conversations than the morons that actually make a living writing about sports

Has nothing to do with sports, it's the case in all fields of journalism.

Sadly though, it's not like things are different (worse) today than they were 50 years ago. Journalism sucked back then too, it's just that now we have the Internet to fact check and read the opinion of 'the other side.'
