Grantland so far

Won't knock it, and enjoyed it when I indulged, but when you were throwing a "D" pitcher in there, you wanted to go hide in the john.

 

Grantland is trying to provoke Facebook fans to read stories. Kind of a weird tactic.

I follow a baseball writer on facebook, and that is the only way I see his stories.

 

I find this thread to be the best catch all for anything "Grantland"

 

Greatest (non-video game) home football game ever.

 

And once you finally got it working it took all of about 3 minutes for the controller to get too hot to hold.

 

Where can I find the thread about Grantland?

 

This was the version I had.

 

We met as soul mates on Parris Island
We left as inmates from an asylum
And we were sharp, as sharp as knives
And we were so gung ho to lay down our lives

We came in spastic like tameless horses
We left in plastic as numbered corpses
And we learned fast to travel light
Our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight

We had no home front, we had no soft soap
They sent us Playboy, they gave us Bob Hope
We dug in deep and shot on sight
And prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might

We had no cameras to shoot the landscape
We passed the hash pipe and played our Doors tapes
And it was dark, so dark at night
And we held on to each other
Like brother to brother
We promised our mothers we'd write

And we would all go down together
We said we'd all go down together
Yes we would all go down together

 

I find myself rapidly losing interest in Grantland.

 

Maybe they can win you back with their brand new Facebook page.

I haven't. Still find 2-3 stories a day I'm glad I looked at.
