 Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Link love. It makes the sports blogging world go round. It also provides lots of data for the gnomes at Ballhype to chew on, spit out and rearrange into pretty pictures. Example: linking patterns, which we use to help find top stories and are the sole basis for our blog rankings.
