    You do have the maturity of a bleacher report writer.

    Fail.

    Forget quality. How about libel? http://bleacherreport.com/articles/593711-college-basketball-syracuse-basketball-point-shaving-scandal

    Why would anyone sue them? It's not like they have $10.5 million or anyth ... oh wait

    Don't forget the big news that Seton Hall is going to be kicked out of the Big East. What's D Wizzle's take?

    Whenever someone links BR nonsense, I love to check out their bios. Always cracks me up for some reason. This author's "story" is quite elegantly written:

    "Been watching sports in the Norheast Corridor and reading interweb newsgroups for many years. I just want to present my opinion without clogging up any newsgroups."

    Did you go to Michigan State? Because JRN 201 was my first JRN class. Just curious. (I noticed you said you were from Michigan.)

    Google it: BR takes as much or more shit from bloggers as they do from mainstream folk. Watching the inevitable panel at Blogs With Balls where Jim Bankoff, the SBN CEO, sits next to the BR CEO is a hilarious hour full of Bankoff barely restraining his facial expressions and explaining very carefully that SBN does not believe itself to be anything approximating BR.

    It's dreck. And the page views are trumped up with slideshows of Getty Images file pics. Traffic doesn't equal relevance. Maybe there's a level of readership that doesn't care, but their page views are like pesos to me. They don't add up to much.
