What a joke. f 'em. F 'em right in the a.
Yes, the reason your stats are plummeting has all to do with SpursTalk and nothing to do with your Spurs coverage progressively going from bad to unreadable
What a joke. f 'em. F 'em right in the a.
Referring to the efforts of McDonald, Monroe, and Harvey as "intellectual property".
Hey thanks Express-News!
I bet Duncan228 is relieved...makes her job a of alot easier!
It was going to happen sooner or later.
Not like their material is worth wholesale copying anyway. EN's a rag.
What a blast !
Now that we can't post E-N articles, I guess we can 'Raise The Bar' now.
Under two sentences? Really? That's half the average length of an E-N article.
there articles suck anyway, especially that ol mcdonal had a farm e ya eya oooo, and on the farm he had a ....
What a bunch of big, whiny babies. Heaven forbid they lose a couple hits.
The funny thing is, every article posted is usually linked. Meaning that Express News was probably getting more traffic off this site from people clicking those links or looking for supporting articles, then they were losing from people reading the articles here instead of on mysa.com.
But whatever, it makes sense. News is all about readers, and they want you reading from their site and their site only. It's just surprising that they would put out this excuse for coverage (which is nothing but regurgitated Spurstalk topics anyways), then be so uptight about it.
Kori - I assume we can still post links as long as we just link to the related article, instead of posting it? So crybaby Express News gets their web hits?
Sure, you can post links. But it's probably better we just post nothing from there
All I remember that every post with article had link on it. What is the law?
Pathetic
Monroe and McDonald SUCKS big time.
F*** EN and their TERRIBLE Spurs coverage
WTF they want some of Ellis cake or what?
Why would you as a newspaper think it wise to risk offending faithful readers when your problem is that you need subscribers?
I know I am not about to go out and order a subscription of Express News anytime soon- thanks to this move by them.
Boycott, baby!
Sure, you can post links. But it's probably better we just post nothing from there
We don't want to give them anymore traffic anyways.
Boycott Express News!
I thought the articles were always linked and credit was given, but apparently anything over two sentences is going over the "intellectual property" line? That's horse since most of those articles take a good 5-6 sentences to get the point across.
And one more thing.
We don't need their crap. The Spurs official website post here and do a much better job covering the team
spurs dot com has the quotes from the game, so the intelectual part of EN is also there
Yeah their articles are pure most of the time.
now that express-news prevents us from posting their articles on the internet we will all go and buy the paper!
Aren't there some issues with plagiarism between Monoroe, Harvey, and McDonald? Or is it just a coincidence that all of their ideas seem to follow SpursTalk?
Kudos to timvp for turning this demanding letter into a crusade.
As a famous Japanese general said after the bombing Pearl Harbor, "I fear all we have done is awaken a sleeping giant..."
They went and did it...they pissed of ST nation and now they're gonna pay!
