Ok...I think it is beyond time that there is a sticky post for the DP. Instead of having their crap infiltrate mutlitudes of threads, we should consolidate it all to one area where people can feel free to ignore it as the hogwash it is or discuss it because they've got nothing else to...
If it's not absolutely clear, I'm very pissed about not only the quality of the reporting but also the quality of the writing by the DP when it comes to the AVs...the following is the last of many emails I've sent them...Feel free to continue and also post any responses you may or may not receive...We really should have a DP sticky thread even if it is just for *LOLZ*
To whom it may concern,
Please discontinue your coverage of the Avalanche. Not only does it seem to be incendiary, it is flat our wrong, bone headed and makes fans of the AVs look dumber by relation. Grammar aside, beat writers should at least be able to type the names of the players on any given night. What is so difficult with this concept? Type the players name correctly...if you can't, create a sheet with their names, and then simply use your friends Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V to your advantage. It's not that ****ing hard. Unless you are completely uninterested in what your are being paid to cover.
I pray to God you never allow Mike Chambers to write another article about my team. He does nothing but praise people who may have a connection to college hockey that he's covered at some point. It’s stupid, pointless and provides no real insight. It might come in handy at some point if the AVs are playing a team with a super-star obscure NCAA player in his first game, but this guy seriously has no clue about players who haven't played for a team he's covered in the past. He doesn't do homework and should NOT have a job covering an NHL team unless he is willing to work on that.
Terri used to be good but most of his articles lately have been comparison in nature and seem lazy…most bloggers who were a fan of the AVs in the 90s know more about the team than he does and provide more in context with clips to youtube and other media.
Don’t even get me started on Kizla….he’s your bulldog and fill the shoes well. He’s an *******, says **** that is meant only to stir more **** up and grins while avoiding all facial contact (because you shut down comments, and or don’t force him to respond to critical ones.) Yeah, Kizla = the DP Avery *slow golf clap*
Anyways, while I have supported your page in the past by clicking on links when they’ve seemed relevant and allowing all the advertisers to appear, I’ve recently adopted an ad-blocker program to remove this…On a side note to your ad company, many people who are fans of the Avalanche don’t live in the Colorado area…maybe ads that reach to the internet community are in order here….
Just another guy you never knew you lost advertising from,

Can we get a single linky stickied for conversations regarding all DP articles here?
