PCM Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 In today's Frozen Four Notebook, INCH says Alex Goligoski will play in today's game between Minnesota and North Dakota. But then INCH takes this false cheap shot at the Sioux: Goligoski hurt his wrist after being slashed by a North Dakota player in the first period of the Gophers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone can e-mail INCH through their Web site. I suggest that as many Sioux fans as possible demand that the record be set straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fedorov Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I hope that the ESPN crew doesn't report these lies today. I suggest writing to ESPN to tell them to end their association with INCH. Email ESPN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottM Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 What do you expect? INCH discloses that it gets its "information" from a variety of sources, including that crazy cat lady down the street, Larry the Urinating Bum, USCHO, Sid Hartman, Sponge Bob Squarepants and Dan Rather. Not exactly a stellar cast of "primary" sources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kr Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 Reading the article there are 2 choices: 1) the comments are under the "Seen and Heard at the Schott" -- the article mentions talking with the gopher camp about injury to Goligoski -- it could be assumed that the mole stated to the reporter that it was a slash which caused the injury and the reporter just reported what the gopher representative stated or 2) the reporter did some investigative embellishment reporting (ie read it in a message board and posted it as truth) The tape of the incident seems to indicate otherwise -- but if "they" want to label Travis Zajac a hack so be it -- hopefully TZ pops in another couple goals this weekend. Speaking of hacks I'm so glad that Jake Taylor (or was it Tyler?) left the gophers after last year. Go Sioux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoteauRinkRat Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I get so sick of INCH and their reporting errors all year long. I like the site, but they report a lot of false things and a lot of gossip type stories. This is a blatant falsehood that is being reported on and they need to correct the record.

PCM Posted April 7, 2005 Author Share Posted April 7, 2005 2) the reporter did some investigative embellishment reporting (ie read it in a message board and posted it as truth)<{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think this is probably it. In a USCHO thread, someone said that Goligoski's injury was caused by a Sioux slash. Within a day or two, there was an article in one of the Twin Cities papers quoting Goligoski as saying that it happened when he banged his hand against the boards. The video of the play supports this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dagies Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I wrote INCH an email, pasted in the thread from GPL that contains a quote from the Trib story quoting Goligoski saying it was a legit hit that caused the injury. Then suggested they research the Star Trib themselves if they want to see the real article. I don't know if I could have accessed a story from that long ago for free so figured they could do it.

kr Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 I'm assuming that INCH's next + and - section will include a - to themselves for this specific phantom slash comment; they give the NCAA a - for failing to include the 2003 championship from MN's banner (which truthfully is bad, this is the 2nd year now, you'd think with all the people employed by the NCAA they'd have fixed that) so logic would follow a - is worthy for an ommission, therefore a "falsehood" would warrant a - . . . . . and yes, I'm holding my breath! Mistakes are made in reporting, but that usually is followed by a retraction . . . although if you're a sudo reporter can you "will" something to be true?
