LARGE THE HEAD posted:How he did not get fired over all that is utterly disgraceful. Especially considering how many actually-good people have lost their jobs at CST in the past few years. But, that paper's turned into such a shitrag that while I'd like to be surprised, I'm not.

Niwrad posted:Bernstein was also big into tearing down the culture at Penn State and college athletics as a whole. Can get a little "sports radioish" at times, but he's really good on social and cultural issues relating to sports. I love me some Bernstein; the only thing we don't really see eye-to-eye on is the steroids/HOF thing (he's extra-anti-never-in-my-HOF), but, whatevs.

I would pay for grantland-like articles and more niche analytic stuff. Are they building up that now? It took me a tick to realize she's at The Atlantic and not The Athletic, too.
