    No, Paper Guy. If you were Blogger Guy or Tweet Guy, you should be embarrassed.

    Oh, well, after seeing the Daly twitter crap yesterday I thought for a second this was Rocco Mediate ranking the writers, as someone else said. Not even going to read any further, I'll just mosey along ...

    My dog, Harry, is ranking his favorite bloggers and twits, too. I'll post them tomorrow.

    So the moral of this list is that if Joe Posnanski works very hard and sharpens his wit a little more, he can one day reach the level of Bill Simmons or A.J. Daulerio. Good lesson.

    The newspaper holds him back.

    As opposed to Simmons. Ain't nothing gonna breaka his stride. Nobody gonna slow him down. Oh no. He got to keep on movin'.

    Don't show this to our publisher, he'll be disappointed our newspaper's Twitter and blog site isn't listed.

    I've covered enough women's college basketball to know that Mediaite is a Lithuanian female surname.

    I read that list and felt dumber for having done so.

    Mediaite's gag is to put out lists of top editors and other media types in an attempt to lure top editors and media types into visiting the site to see where they are ranked. So go there if you're looking for the insights of people who create content with their eyes chiefly on self-promotion.

    Me, too. Heck, I actually like the guy, admire his balls for trying something and am happy for his success.
    But I also have the mind of a five-year-old so what the hell!

    Hit the ol' cell banana for the 411 on the PAR-TAY!
