I don’t know MVN founder Evan Brunell from Adam, but I credit him as an early visionary whose model has been replicated many times over, and was attractive to many quality sites I enjoy.

SEC’s “Fully Integrated New Media” Falls Short

Tue, 8 Dec 2009 19:34:03 +0000

The SEC's “fully integrated new media” doesn’t seem to have included or addressed the relevant claims that the Conference’s most avid and vocal fans are bemoaning, and shows the SEC content on holding out and forcing their outdated model as long as possible.

Kayfabian Messiah: Time For Change In Chicago

Tue, 1 Dec 2009 20:59:32 +0000

The time is now for change in Chicago. For the last 3 years, Lovie Smith (aka Mr. Rogers) has done nothing but denigrate a team with more talent than Dick Jauron’s 2001 #2 seed Chicago Bears. There’s nothing wrong with the WRs. People who say that are on the useless Jay Cutler bandwagon.

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 19:28:44 +0000

Apparently Tony Reali does a weekly fantasy column in the Philly Inquirer. However, the only thing fantasy about this article is Stat Boy's pompadour. Word on the street is that this is the head shot he used during his unsuccessful bid to join the cast of Grease 2.
