It takes a lot of ‘cojones’ to stand up alone like you did.
My most profound admiration.
Cheers

I didn’t know why you left ESPN at all, but to be honest, I always felt that you were the best basketball columnist there, so when you left, I followed. I think this website is great for basketball coverage that doesn’t seem as if it’s written with an agenda. I appreciate that. So I’m glad you’re doing your stuff. Keep it up!

Just saw this, figured I’d comment and use this opportunity to let you know how much I’ve enjoyed your site, even though I’ve watched the NBA less since I stopped covering it.

Hey Chris … glad you feel you finally got justice here. You are one of the best reporters and hardest workers in the biz, and I wish you nothing but the best with this site. Oh, and sorry I sold those Cleveland irons instead of giving them to you.
I’d have a score in the 70s if you gave me those irons like you were supposed to, Nadel. Thanks for the kind words.

I have no dog in this fight and I respect both columnists. I have read Peter Vecsey for over 30 years. I read the offending column and while I would be p***** too if it were my name, I don’t think you can call it libel. It might be false, denigrating, offensive, sophomoric, etc — but not libel. And we don’t know despite what happened subsequently in the Melo trade whether or not the initial comments on Melo would have been true or not. There’s no way to tell.
Good luck on your website.

Just bookmarked your page.

Chris,
Really rooting for you and your new venture. You made an honorable decision. Even if you ever do return to the MSM, I think you will have shown the world what “Sheridan” means.
Awesome, Chris. Congratulations on putting this behind you and taking the high road. The site has been superb since launch, and I look forward to continued reading.
Thanks, Mopi. Our aim is for the site to be a must-read every day. Couldn’t do it without an incredible support staff and excellent writers.

Congrats to you for having the courage to stand up for what is right and for your good name. I went back to the Vescey article and WOW was he not only wrong in what he said about your article but he was WRONG about the whole Carmelo deal as well. Way off. Bet he wishes that article was forgotten in long-yellowed newspapers instead of having a permanent place on the internet. Eternal shame on you, Mr Vescey!
I know that’s really him because he calls me Christopher.

You made the right choice to defend your name and integrity. Keep up the great work, Chris! Your coverage of USA basketball while at ESPN was some of the best basketball reporting I have ever read.
Working on an idea to assure that I will be covering USA Basketball this summer, too. Fingers crossed on that. Thanks for the kind words, YHK.
Mike Jaysays
Chris,
I also didn’t know why you left ESPN. I applaud you for fighting to protect your name and your father’s legacy. I’ve been in your position and have NEVER hesitated to fight for my name and integrity. It means that much to me. I love the website as well as your questioning Stern about his killing of the Paul to Lakers trade. Congrats and keep up the great work!!!!

Chris,
When Vecsey used the phrase “Sheridan’s invented informants” he was suggesting that you had fabricated your information. Such a suggestion is incredibly damaging to a reporter’s reputation.
I just read this via twitter and never knew the reason you left ESPN. I just wanted to say how much respect I have for not only your work but also your integrity. Although I have never read a word the man has written I have always found Mr. Vecsey obnoxiously arrogant from his days on NBC and while I agree that the ever changing opinions on these stories got annoying to read I also understand that you can only report what information is given to you and that reporters are fed information that isn’t accurate all the time. This paticular situation is especially funny that you were the one that he called out and you were right! I’m sure at the time very little was funny to you and I only hope that you are happy with your new direction. Keep up the great work and I’m sure your dad is/would be very proud.

My one complaint about this site – I don’t know why, but it simply kills my computer. I blame the heavy load of video advertisements but maybe it’ll get better when you get a better server or whatnot. it’s basically ythe only basketball site out there that does this other than Hoopspeak, which only does it a little when stating up.
Thanks, Ignarus, for letting me know about this. By chance, is there an advertisement for tickets on the right sidebar showing whenever it loads uber slow for you? It used to be advertising NCAA, but before that, it was advertising tickets to the Knicks, Bulls, etc.

Thanks, Jimmie.
It’s about time Peter Vecsey was taken to task for that kind of thing. Good on you.
Well done, Chris.
Respect.
You just moved up to my first website to check in the morning.
