“I love it. Just when I think society can’t get any dumber we get an email like this. Some baffoon sending a press release wanting coverage from us about the top 25 best sports bloggers/writers in the world and we’re not on the list. Hey whatever floats your boat. If you think Rany Jazayerli from Rany on the Royals is better than all of our writers than so be it. But what I wouldn’t do is send us a fucking email rubbing our faces in it. That’s how a dumb motherfucker gets blown up. Because no offense Leah, but I don’t give a shit about you, your pussy little research firm or your precious little list. So why don’t you do me a favor and go fuck yourself. How about that?”
No offense to Katie Baker, who I am a big fan of, but I don’t think the people at SportsGrid or Abrams Research have a clue about the history of sports blogging and their list reflects that.
I’m sure they’re really excited to start up a new sports driven site under the Dan Abrams umbrella but maybe they should have consulted people who actually have been involved in the industry for more than a minute or two.

Actually, I know Rany Jazayerli from Rany on the Royals is better than all of your writers…
