Forget Financial Analysts! Sports Analysts Have Zero Integrity! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™ƒ

I don't mind that people, even experts, get things wrong...that's what makes us human. However, when you are wrong, it pays to own up to the mistake rather than doubling-down on it like a dumbass.

Case in point is dumbass -- and arrogant prick -- sports "journalist" Bill Plaschke of the Los Angeles Times. Here's his take on Shohei Ohtani prior to baseball's season opener:

This dumbass -- and from now on, I will refer to him as PlASSke -- would have sent Ohtani to Salt Lake for a month or two because he "wasn't ready."

Boy, what a blunder!

But mind you, I'm not calling Plasske a dumbass because he doubted Ohtani...that's just part of the game. But you can't call yourself a sports journalist by making huge whoppers without taking some accountability for your mistakes -- it's just what professionals with integrity do.

Then he made another blunder.


As you know, Ohtani had one miserable game against the Red Sox, where he only pitched two innings due to a blister. He came crashing down to earth.

However, this slump didn't last. He had an okay game against the Astros, then was pretty much on fire from then on.

Plus, he's been a reliable batter, only getting blanked for two, non-consecutive games. Otherwise, he can be counted on to produce something every game. You really can't say that about any other Angels player so far this year -- remember that Trout had a long slump before breaking out of it recently.

But in the aftermath of that Red Sox game, Plasske again doubled-down, asking readers to keep calm, implying that he's just a regular player.

Wrong again, Plasske!

When are you going to stop being a bitch boy, and man-up to your mistakes?
