Message to Media: Stop Complaining About the Extended “Joba Rules” Coverage

I love how media members say they are sick of the talk about Joba Chamberlain and the “Joba Rules”.  I’ve read several tweets by media members in the last few days saying they are sick and tired of hearing about Joba and his rules.  Do they not understand that their peers are the ones who make a big deal of it.  They put it on the internet headlines.  They print it all over newspaper back pages.  They bring it up over and over again on radio shows.  If I were sick of it I’d stop reading and writing about it.  The media keeps analyzing and second guessing and analyzing and second guessing.  Stop complaining about the coverage of Joba.  This is New York, the biggest media market in the world, and this is the Yankees, arguably the most well-known franchise in sports.  I could understand fans complaining about the nonstop coverage.  They can’t cut it out of the media.  They have to read what’s being written.  They have to listen to whatever is being said.  If they want their sports, they have to put up with it.  Media members are in control.  So when someone in the media says they are sick of the “Joba rules” it is ridiculous.
