I don't think so. Therealdeal is Peja's wife. Charles Rosen is Peja's brother.

Rosen is easily the most negative and biggest hater of not just any sports writers but of any single person I have ever met.

I wasn't aware LeBron went to St. Anthony's.
All this time I was trying to watch him play in Akron, but he was an hour away in Jersey City!

When Rosen talks X's & O's he is a good read, however, as soon as he dives into players and coaches it is some of the worst tripe I have ever seen. On a lot of these player and coach comments, you can see Phil Jackson's arm protruding from Rosen's rectum since he is another of Phil's mouth pieces. Isn't it amazing that Sam Smith was also mentioned in this thread.
If you want to read some hilarious, biased writing, you should check out anything Rosen has ever said about JVG.
Drewbs, I thought you would like Rosen since he as an even lower opinion of Kenyon Martin than you do.

Sam Smith is a total hack these days (and so are most Chicago sportswirters, for that matter), but Charley Rosen is easily the worst sportswriter I've read. He's said some of the most idiotic things I've ever seen. Sometimes, I wonder if he's actually joking...unfortunately, he's not.
More proof of his ineptitude: Charley Rosen's Most Overrated/Underrated Lists...
http://msn.foxsports.com/story/3121122
Not only are the lists horrible (especially the underrated), but here's an example of something Rosen would say. God...

If his defense was slightly quicker, and he didn't play with a squad full of superstars, Maurice Taylor would be a definite All-Star and a legitimate contender for the NBA scoring title.
|
Yes, this guy makes money to write this stuff. Un-freaking-believable. |

LOL at the Mo Taylor quote.
How about this one, explaining that Jeff Foster is underrated:
Quote:
|
Notice what happened last season in the Pacers' playoffs series vs. Detroit, when Rick Carlisle benched Foster in favor of Austin Croshere (in an attempt to pump up his offense). Proving that some role players have a unique and irreplaceable value.
|
Didn't Indiana win the game with Croshere in? Or am I totally delusional? |

On T.V. I hate Jim Gray. Bob Costas is ok unless he's doing anything in New York and then he's a biased ***.

Here's a quote from Rosen:
"Are the Sonics really going to start Luke Ridnour at the point? He does have a good floor game, he can drill 3-pointers, and he's very clever in screen/roll situations. But he's comparatively slow compared to other point guards."
Ummm.... Has anybody noticed Luke Ridnour being of all things, slow?
Small? yes.
Soft? yes.
Slow?
