Sporting News turn to get it wrong on Isles

New York Islander Fan Central | 8/03/2008 07:40:00 PM |
Sporting News: Sporting news staff report puts up a headline based on Sat/Sun Newsday article that claims Crawford, Gallant among Isles' coach finalists and that second-round interviews begin this week.

NYI Fan Central Comments:
Is it really that hard to read an article and reprint a story properly or is the work simply that sloppy?

This article points to the word according to Newsday's Greg Logan (as almost everyone does) but the beatwriter did not claim Gallant or Crawford were finalists and that according to the reports neither have had a first interview yet but folks will see the headline and start ripping away as if it's down to two.

Not as if the Islander general manager has commented beyond what he is looking for in the long-term for his next coach.

I did not see anything in that article where Snow said he was conducing a second round of interviews yet. It's logical he will be this week but Newsday did not report that either.

Don't worry folks, these folks will be giving us predictions for next seasons club which could be as poorly done as the headlines.

Scary part is some will agree with those reviews.
