THE NEWS HACK'S CREED:
I know more than you.
I make lots more money than you.
I'm smarter than you.
I'm sexier than you.
I appear on TV all the time.
I work ten minutes a day.
I rule the universe.
I'm going to live forever.
You are an idiot.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 2:
A lie isn't a lie when it tells THE TRUTH.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 3:
I've come to realize that the looseness of the journalistic life, the seeming laxity of the newsroom, is an illusion. Yes, there's informality and there's humor, but beneath the surface lies something deadly serious. It is a code. Sometimes the code is not even written down, but it is deeply believed in. And, when violated, it is enforced with tribal ferocity.
--JOHN "OMERTA" CARROLL.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 4:
News isn't news when we don't report it.

The exzzzzzzzzzzzzzciting finish at the Players (Henrik who?) makes us wonder how much longer The Golfing Machine will be a prime force. There are lots of ballwhackers as technically proficient as he, and younger. Showing off the busted knee last year didn't help long haul. Let's not pity TGM for his monopoly on corner-office friends, but now's the time to start looking ahead -- and given its scintillating new personalities The Always-Capitalized TOUR®!!!!! may not want to.

It also hasn't escaped our notice that there've been a lot of not-so-close games in the ATTITUDE LEAGUE playoffs. But then it hardly bothers the show-off CEOs who take up most of the seats and sit on most of the hands. Question: How do you know you're at an NBA game? When it's tied with twenty seconds left -- and there's no crowd noise.
