    Great news for B/R employees and fans and readers alike. Good job.

    Sounds like a great deal for B/R's founders. The readers won't give a shit either way.

    As for the "employees," they should research what happened to the money when AOL bought Huffington Post. Quick hint there: Unless the employee was Arianna Huffington, the employee didn't get two nickels.

    If blogger boy read the article, he would have caught on to the fact that Turner hasn't bought Bleacher Report yet.

    Let's hope not. If I cared about what some guy who is sitting in his mamma's basement thought about sports, I'd go live in my mamma's basement.

    I actually looked up who the most popular "writers" for BR are. They are those who specialize in hottest wife/girlfriend/cheerleaders/athletes/sportscaster/ "stories."

    For all the B/R bashers, I know that most of u guys would work for them if u guys were luckily enough to be hired by them.

    They have lots of great hires lately including King Kaufman, and lots of top NFL and NBA and MMA and MLB writers.

    I think a lot of journalists are jealous now since they work for a newspaper that is dying perhaps.

    I don't know but that is my professional opinion.

    We'd use the word "you" and proper sentence structure if we did.

    I especially love the use of "professional opinion."
