Apparently it’s still up to Billy Haisley’s whim to decide what to cover and what not to in the world of soccer
I’m totally okay with The Concourse (this is not Deadspin) regularly covering current events as it always has. But the bulk of HamNo’s “analysis” lately has indeed been lazy and sketchy on facts.
