So, let's start tweeting back at him and tell him to stop the dishonest crap and be a real journalist.

Locke is not, and never has been, a journalist.

Nope, he is just an annoying pud who has no place in any professional organization as a voice man.

Well I disagree with that, but you are welcome to your opinion.

What are your feelings on Ty Corbin, Greg?

Locke is just a shill for the Jazz organization. They get wind fans are tired of seeing the veterans play heavy minutes, so Locke is told to put something out there supporting the Jazz. Utah sportswriters are scared of the Millers since they're the only game in town. Well, not counting Real Salt Lake ;-)

For the record, I disagree with this. I listen to Locke all the time, and I hear nothing to suggest he is a shill. He may occasionally spin, but he doesn't hesitate to critique players, although he does appear more hesitant to critique Corbin.

I think his tweet can easily be interpreted to suggest that young players are more likely to commit certain errors during crunch time than veteran players. That's about it, nothing nefarious here. No hidden meaning. No sub-text. I really think it's as simple as that.

I'd go as far as to say that for an employee of the Jazz (and no, he's not a journalist and so is held to different standards), he is refreshingly honest.

Locked with poor word choice? Shocking.

Did he at least run a spell-check? No!?!?
