Personally, I think G. Arnold is one of the laziest writers around. He does not do his homework and just because he can string a couple paragraphs together doesn't mean he is a good writer.
I can't help but wonder if your post would have been different had he said Portland was a big winner.
While I share the opinion that we've had a bad summer so far, I also think it's ridiculous to do these "summer winners and losers" articles when we are less than two weeks into free agency.
I've seen too many articles stating that my Washington Redskins were the big offseason winners only to see another crap year once the regular season rolled around. I'll reserve judgment until we actually play.
