    Topic came up over a few pints this weekend: who are the best sports journalists out there right now that are unaffiliated? Thoughts?

    Justin Heckert and Pat Jordan have to be on the short list. At this time a year or two ago, Brian Phillips would have been, but Grantland has provided some with a regular outlet. I would have argued for Mike Graff, but he just went to Charlotte magazine as an editor.

    Nope. It's me.

    I think you're second, though.

    Graff is a superstar. He really sucks at Tecmo Bowl, though.

    By unaffiliated, you mean unemployed?

    I dunno. I hear he doesn't even try until the playoffs.
    Seriously, I thought that was a great read.

    Has Patrick Stevens caught on anywhere? If not, he has my vote.

    Good one. Still writes a lot of Nascar stuff in his BLOG! but he is sorely missed from that media corps.
