I feel the same way.
I used to read the blog a lot... when I found out that Sando used to cover the Seahawks exclusively, I started to question his objectiveness. Every time I read something he writes, I feel like there's a bias to it. It's totally possible I unfairly judge him, but at this point, it's one of those "can't un-see it now that I've seen it" sort of things.

Snooped his Facebook once, his kids got Kap Jersey's from Sando's dad for the Superbowl. Seems like the rest of his family are Niner Diehards. But yeah, he's a big ole Hawk Homer.

He has become almost unreadable since the Seahawks became relevant, putting a Seattle spin on every article regardless of which team the article is about.
And Matt Williamson can suck a bag of dicks, like honestly that dude bashes the niner players every chance he gets.

CAWK lovers don't deserve our attention--don't read/comment on their crap articles...

And to hear Sando defend Williamson..."It was his opinion based on years of personnel evaluation for ESPN.com and in the NFL itself"...I don't care what Williamson was before his current gig with ESPN and what he is now. Those who really know football can call bullsh*# when we see it, and we see it a lot from Williamson (and Sando). Williamson is off in his analysis many times, so much so that it makes me think he's just trying to stir things up intentionally to get people to read his stuff. Williamson is also originally from Seattle I'm guessing? Seems like he's also always high on the Seahawks.

It's just how it is.
Hater-ade.
Even when we win the SBowl, they'll definitely find something negative about us in the win.

Whose the more expendible of the Matts? he should sent to take over for Blando, who can go back to jamming with John Clayton at his moms house in seattle...

Personally, I enjoy reading Sando. He seems fair in his treatment of the teams.

Ha, exactly. Sando and Clayton should stay in the Seattle area where they live...that way, they can talk up the Seahawks to each other all day long. Clayton's annoying, too, and in my opinion is incredibly overrated in covering the NFL and giving his "takes" on teams, talent, etc. Yes, bring in Matt Barrows to be the new ESPN NFC West writer. That's my vote.

Clayton at least tries to remain objective and professional even though sometimes he does have bias, Sando just sucks putting everything the niners do with a skeptical or negative spin while praising the seahawks every move.
