We had a long, enjoyable run, and I would like to thank every Orlando Magic fan who contributed to our small community on the web. This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance. You can also visit the original MagicMadness Forum at http://orlandomagic.proboards.com.
Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

I know, LOL is right. You know, I already am sick of ESPN and its own journalists as the way they portrayed the teams and sports in a clownish way and a negative light and people from the leagues know that journalism is dead and felt that tabloids are the answer to make headlines and make money. Disgraceful. But it happens. Hope that future writers and editors will soon learn this lesson. |

She was only with the Sentinel for a short time, but during her stint there she had to be one of the most unpopular sports writers (in Orlando) of the last 20 years, at least. |

Yeah, I mean. She lost respect from her readers, ESPN is taking too many criticism for doing that to the public, embarrassing them and mocking them by making unfair statements that reflects anyone from the rosy picture. |

She should have been fired long ago, particularly for that POS she wrote claiming that Anne Leibowitz was a racist for taking that pic of LeBron for Vogue (or whatever the magazine was), claiming that it looked like the cover of King Kong. But I think that out of all her stupidity, this one takes the cake. |

I find this to be crazy from ESPN's part. What in the world would they want her in the headquarters in the first place even if that she got herself ousted from O-Sentinel? That's why I don't read or watch ESPN columnists ever! |

True, it's pretty sad that they hired her to begin with. Do they just blindly accept all job applications? If so, I need to submit mine...
