Battle of the Blogs

Why do sports blogs get no love? Is it the fact that people don't like sports, or that people hate my blog's team? Or is it the fact that I provide game recaps? I do more than that, more than boring recaps, anyone can go to MLB.com and find a recap. I add in my own opinions, I have featured players of the day, I have many things that you can not find at MLB.com.
Also, if I want to win a battle of the blog, it is going to be with this one. To me politics are too damn boring to talk about, even think about, I don't know crap about technology except for the recent Mother's Day RAZR phone. And there is no way in hell you are going to learn about my personal life, unless you are my wife.

My blog was once ranked #493 out of nearly 40,000 blogs, yet after a winning one in my last 20 battles, I have slipped to #694. I was once four wins above.500, now my record sits at 28-44. That is crap, worse than the Devil Rays.

Sports blogs are great blogs, they provide insight, personal opinions so you know what the other's think about, and many other features. Sports is the men's version of soap opera's. Instead of Brad falling for Jeanne who is in love with her gynocologist, we have the Roger Clemens vs. Mike Piazza show of 2000, the Yankees vs. Red Sox rivalry (who will win next, stay tuned for a sneak preview), can the Braves make it 15 straight, who will be the worst, Royals or Pirates, and can the Reds keep up pace? That is drama. It makes people sit on the edge of their seats.

It can make a million people jump with joy, and yet, at the same time, make millions cry. History is being made everyday, like last night, a lot of history was made. The Chicago White Sox pulled off the second-ever Sunday Night Baseball triple play vs. the Athletic's and Mark Buehrle became the first pitcher since 1900 to allow seven runs and still win the game! One member of the Padres walked a record five times, and another struck out five times. Things happen, history happens, but if you don;t care about history and drama, vote for the other blog, maybe you can learn about the new Moto phone that Pres. Bush is using while vacationing in Bermuda as Iraq is a mess.

With that, thanks for not voting for sports blogs, we feel very special as the loners.

    I always try and vote for the better blog, even if I don't like your team ;) lol

    For some people, I guess they rather watch the sport then read about it?
