Hey Clappy, do you know that you're Rob Neyer big story on ESPN?

[Clapp]

Thanks guys, that was just a stupid little post I did on Miles/Fox, nothing special. I don't know why he chose mine, but I'll take it.

Spit or swallow?

Clapp, you're far too modest. So to boost your ego a little I'll tell you one thing...










































Fuck off. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

No, but seriously, you're the man.

Clapp, Fella, Ace, etc. Keep up the good work guys. You're doing a much better job than the two big local newspapers are with their blogs (it's no wonder that they're going out of business).

For example:
Hardball from the Trib (notice the heavy Sox bias)

Inside the Cubs from the Sun Times (It's been nearly a week since Wittenmyer's posted an article)

Thanks CC. The coverage of the Cubs by the media is just embarrassing. We're talking about one of the most popular franchises in sports. Paul Sullivan, Carrie Muskat, Gordon Wittenmyer... it's just awful.

Thanks, CC. I'd rather read TFB any day over the MSM (outside of Bruce Miles), but alas, the access. The access.

I do need to check Bruce's blog more frequently. I also really like Brad Bigg's Bears Blog. He does a fantastic job:

Absolutely. He blogs everyday about random topics, takes Q/A all the time, updates every sort of story around the Bears right away, etc. He does it how they should be doing it these days.

If it's your job, there's no excuse for not doing it that way.
