I don't think its worth his time financially anymore
Why did you post it? At least use a "NP:" prefix. (Not Paulus)
updated.
That is funny. Good work.
I was wondering the same.
I particularly enjoyed the This Week in Schadenfreude columns. Brian, I hope you continue those this season in some capacity, whether it's at AOL or here.
Otherwise, I may cry The Tears of Unfathomable Sadness.
Agreed! TWiS is a great, great column. I'll truly miss it if it's gone.
AOL is getting more and more lame. Mariotti's columns are universally high-horse riding judgmental cry-fests about this or that in sports. If they took names off the columns, you'd know the Mariotti every time.
Plus his "columns" are about 5 times longer than any other posts on the site. He just needs to go away.
You would also know which column was Blackistone's because it's the one making every sports story into a rant on race.
Cosigned.
I was waiting to say something until I had something worked out elsewhere, but: AOL and I have parted ways. Once Alana left after the whole Fantasy Sports Girls thing they brought in corporate droids and started editing about every other post I made, which significantly dampened my enthusiasm. I basically stopped posting except every once in a long while, as you've probably noticed, and they made it formal a few weeks ago.
You'll also note the direction they went: out go Oops Pow Surprise and myself and various others; efficient people stay. I think their vision is a world of thousands of MDSes, which I don't really fit in.
I'm talking with Doctor Saturday about moving TWIS over there and maybe doing some recruiting talk, too. We'll see if that works out.
thanks for the update, i hope it works out with dr saturday.
I was kinda bummed to see you had to edit the "God Not a Big Fan of Sam Maresh" post. The original title made me LOL.
I didn't even do that. They did it without telling me, and that would be their SOP: just change the post without even so much as a "by your leave." Pretty lame.
What was the original title?
God Not a Big Fan of Sam Maresh
Revised it is: Sam Maresh Suffers Another Setback
I was going to say, I thought that title was pretty funny even after the edit. Oops.
