    I guess I can understand if someone doesn't like an article that has been submitted...but why downvote it?  Why not just let it be?

      Wasn't me. Although I was feeling pretty good about And One until I saw the top 50. Everyone else says it motivates them - somehow, it has the opposite effect on me. Major character flaw uncovered - thank you, kellex.

          Probably not - I cannot advertise. Cleveland.com does not allow it. All of the ads belong to them. I sow, they reap. :)

      I personally have a hard time voting anything down unless it is strikingly dumb/pointless/Favre related.

    Hey - another down vote! That's two people who are anti blog stats. Sports people in general live for comparative stats - kind of interesting to hate this particular one.

      Maybe just sad that they didn't crack into the top 50?  It's Ok people, there are thousands of you out there not on this list!

    If there was a top 10 people list, you would be on it C.

    People are down voting this because they want Ballhype to be about sports that blogs write about. They do not want it to be about sports blogs.

    I understand the down votes, but I do not agree with them at all. Ballhype has a blog ranking system. The Sports Dollar can have its own.

      Ethan:

      That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the explanation. And the people plug. :)

    Oh man, nostalgia of BH's old logo...

    Maybe it was the graphic designers of BallHype's new (well, relatively new) logo that down voted............ :P

      Yo, Cheez Doodles,

       I know you're new to blogging and all, but posting a link to your column in ESPN doesn't constitute a blog post.

    Is this a misprint?  Did we really make the list? 

    "This is the kind of spontaneous publicity - your name in print - that makes people. I'm in print! Things are going to start happening to me now."

    To make us all feel better kellex should take the time to post a top 500 list.
