I want them to be mocking the media about Jason Collins, not cheering him on for every time he smiles and then looking through twitter to find some 14 year old in Nevada who called him a bad name. |

They're both trying to be the Roger Ebert of tv but there isn't enough quality content for them to write about. They're fucked when Breaking Bad and Mad Men go off the air because nothing else requires their critical insight. The tv recap/critical culture really only exists because of golden era tv shows.

Date: June 26th, 2013 1:31 PM Author: Nubile base Agreed on the website design and most of the articles. On the other hand, it is free.
Solid authors are Jonah Keri, Zach Lowe (although he is overly obsessed with youtube clips), and Andy Greenwald on the pop culture side. Simmons is amusing in short doses. Dave Jacoby and Jalen Rose are good on podcasts. I'm not enamored with anyone else. Bill Barnwell on the NFL is completely insufferable. |
