Sarcasm vs. Hyperbole

Sure, we'd all like accurate, well-written articles; however, I'd rather read an
un-edited hold'em piece by Doyle Brunson than by Peggy Noonan.

As for sarcasm, I believe she set the tone for that in her
Doyle Brunson vs. Peggy Noonan comparison. As for my writing ability, I am proud
to be an effective communicator and do not wish to compare myself to or
establish myself as someone possessing any expert degree of VP knowledge.

It wasn't sarcasm, it was hyperbole. Clearly, I hold both Noonan and Brunson in the highest regard (the comment was neither hostile nor cutting ), instead it was an obvious exaggeration to make a point.
