Sons of Steve Garvey blog shares view of current Los Angeles Times, Witnessing A Los Angeles Institution’s Slow Decline to Mediocrity

Here are the first two paragraphs:
The last three months have been gut-wrenching for Los Angelenos, as we have witnessed a beloved Los Angeles landmark slowly erode, descending into mediocrity. Overall quality has suffered, as the legends of the staff have mostly faded away or retired, often leaving a wispy-thin product with tons of holes. On-the-field mistakes cause fans to roll their eyes. And as one watches the slow deterioration every single day, it’s pretty clear that the glory years are behind it, and the future quality is uncertain at best.

But thus is the state of the Los Angeles Times, the newspaper that I grew up with and idolized, and has now become a shell of its former self.
