Who needs SI when you have Bleacher Report?

In addition to the biggest stories of the moment - 'Bama winning the B(C)S title, KG and Melo having to be separated - you can read about Gruden (Jon, not Jay) attending a pro wrestling show instead of watching the BCS game and Brent Musburger's comments about AJ McCarron's girlfriend, right now at b/r. Worth noting, the Musburger/McCarron's girlfriend story had 39,000 hits when I called it up just now. Didn't get to read the comments; my computer crashed.

 

Really? Because I don't think IJAG knows anything about Turner or what goes on there.

 

The only quibble I have with this post is the word "becoming."

 

For 2 cents you can own the content and edit it as you see fit.

 

I don't any more!!!

 

And not a moment too soon.

 

So CNN is basically telling the world that the inability to write a complete sentence (a Bleacher Report staple) doesn't matter. Sheesh.

 

Of course it matters. It's preferred.

 

Goddammit, I had the perfect screen shot set up for this and the command no longer works on my Apple.

 

So CNN and Turner Sports make a semi-serious move by hiring Rachel Nichols -- not to say she is Edward R. Murrow, but definitely a TV professional -- and then they add Bleacher Report? Of course, wasn't CNN the first outlet more than a decade ago to put Stephen A. Smith on the air?

 

Jeff Zucker's approach appears to be, "Throw a buncha shit on the wall and see what sticks."

Gee that's never been tried before.

 

They bought Bleacher Report well before they hired Rachel Nichols. These things are not related.
