Bleacher Report: Your Choice, Our Appeal

To write for Bleacher Report or not to write for Bleacher Report—that, in the grand literary tradition of melodramatic indecision, is the question before you today.

The Choice


You're here, reading this sales pitch, because you've come to a fork in the road of your sports journalism career.

On the one hand, you can stick to the same beaten path that got you where you are today: maybe as a 9-to-5 newspaper vet, maybe as a 24/7 freelancer, maybe just as a lifelong fan with plenty of opinions but precious few people to share them with. On the other hand, though, you can diverge toward the B/R Writer Program—where you'll gain access to the same publishing tools, training resources and syndication network that have helped thousands of pundits like you pursue their wildest sportswriting dreams.

In the fiercely competitive new media marketplace (and if you'll permit us to mix our literary allusions), that kind of choice just might make all the difference.

The Appeal


For the record, we won't beg you to join the B/R Team. Neither will we sweet-talk you, or strong-arm you, or make any promises we aren't absolutely prepared to keep.

On the contrary, our only goal is to state succinctly and honestly the five reasons that any serious writer ought to cast his or her lot with Bleacher Report...and in the end we can only hope our thoughts will help you see the wisdom of that worthy poetic heir to Shakespeare and Frost, the great sage Yogi Berra Himself:

When you come to a fork in the road, take it—especially when you've got nothing to lose and nowhere to go but up.
