The Athletic

[Y.A.G Si Ye Nots]

This is the best sports website by far. You have to pay $10/monthly (or something like $70 annually), but it is worth it.

For college football alone, they have 19 beat writers. Many of them are top guys like Bruce Feldman, Stewart Mandel, etc.

They give you articles that nobody else does. Four that I have read today are about Miami's (not the real one, the little one in Ohio) running back and the horrible childhood he had, signal stealing in college football (with numerous anonymous stories and comments from coaches), and Kansas' scholarship problem (Weiss, as I have stated before, was an awful head coach - Beatty took over and only had 38 players on scholarship, and with limits of only signing 25 each year, it's nearly impossible for them to come anywhere close to to the max in a few years), and a popular lake that many college coaches retreat to in Georgia each off-season.

And they don't just focus on P5 schools. Over the last few days, there have been articles about Fresno State, Boise, the AAC, and Colorado State.

I know we are very good and we know a lot about sports here, but Pullman Square is free.

I realize the Athletic had hired everyone, but I didn't know that included Rifle.

Not sure about The Athletic, but the best writing I've seen on the internet in the past few months is coming from Quillette.com.

@Y.A.G Si Ye Nots is right, the value they offer for the talent they employ is un-matched.

I wonder about their business model, though. How in the world are they supporting salaries for guys like Buster Olney, Pierre Lebrun, Stewart Mandel and Seth Davis on $9/month?

I know they have a bunch of investor support but eventually that has to dry up. Right?

Don't get me wrong, I'm rooting for them to succeed. I think what the Athletic is doing is admirable: hiring respected national writers and giving them an outlet when opportunities are drying up. And from a journalistic standpoint, I hope it works. I hope it helps create an environment where consumers get conditioned to paying for things of value.

I just have my doubts.

I think the OP is trying to pull a Sweeny on us.

Ha - didn't check it today yet.

I actually thought of some observations you had had in regard to #metoo/Hollywood when I read this one. This author is for the most part a liberal (she's a Bernie voter, very smart evolutionary biologist) but she's had some really good interviews I enjoyed before.
