The great Fire Joe Morgan (motto: "Where bad sports journalism comes to die") shreds Kansas City Star columnist Jeffrey Flanagan in a recent post. Flanagan's sins include run-on sentences and his deployment of a Star Trek reference to belittle people who, as FJM puts it, "attempt to learn things about the game they love. Those dicks."

Also, a reader named ZORRO has posted a cool comment on Flanagan's blog about dinosaur sportswriters' habit of insulting their audience.
