My Bleacher Report Review

But if you are in the 10,000s in reads, it's not really that big of a deal.  I've got around 13,000, and I've written a ton of recaps imported from my old blog that barely anyone has a reason to read.

If you're going to do this, write about how you've improved, or maybe give us readers some hints at future articles or styles you'd like to adapt.

So now that I'm off the proverbial soapbox, I must thank anyone who's read the 1,300-plus words I've composed during my feeble attempt to watch SportsCenter and Baseball Tonight while writing something intelligent.  A multi-tasker I'm not.

So I leave you with my words of advice.  Most of the writers who read this, keep doing what you're doing.  Maybe spend that extra five or ten minutes to make sure all your stats are right and stories accurate.  Most of what I write comes from extra tidbits I find while researching what I'm going to write about.

For other writers just starting out, please take my suggestions and put them to use in your writing and the topics you chose to dwell on.  Don't write dumb, over-opinionated, extremely angry articles unless you can back up every single word you write.

If you are going to compose a list, make sure you do your homework.  Anyone who knows more than you do about something will call you out immediately.

I'm not afraid to admit that when I first started I got called out on stupid mistakes a lot.  Just work to make sure you don't make them again. 

Howard Cosell once said, "Sports is the toy department of life."  This site provides anyone with an opportunity to write about the toys we've come to know and love.  Enjoy the privilege Zander Freund and his partners have granted you—don't abuse it.
