They're fans. It is not their job to be unbiased. They are reporting for a fan site for fans. Just because the other journalists have to appear unbiased doesn't mean they should have to also. I think they're taking themselves too seriously if they honestly think the press box must be this bastion of anti-bias and "honesty". If they can't deal with a little competiton then their insecurities show right through. It's not like the fan sit reporters are pawning themselves off as unbiased. That would be a problem.
