Buzz Bissinger: Asshole Extraordinaire

Seriously.What the fuck is wrong with this guy? In case you don't know, there's a war going on with bloggers and sports writers. The writers basically feel that all bloggers are pieces of shit (unfair generalization, but this seems to happen frequently) who since they don't have the necessary credentials, don't have the right to voice their opinions. Obviously this is a silly argument. I for one enjoy bloggers. They tend to be more honest (the right ones at least, there are some god awful blogs out there I won't lie) since they don't have deep ties within the team.



So yeah, there ya go. They basically took Will Leitsch and set him up for a firing line, which Braylon Edwards intelligently stayed out of. For those who don't know, Will runs Deadspin, Sports News without Access, Favor, or Discretion . I love Deadspin and I think Will is awesome. To his credit, he basically made Costas and Bussinger look like idiots. He had an answer for everything they threw at him. He probably knew this was coming.

I think this whole think was almost as appalling as the E60/Miguel Tejada thing. I mean, you don't bring someone on your show to swear at them and call them names (Bussinger I believe called him a piece of shit at one point). Shame on Costas for letting him pull that shit also. The whole thing was a disgrace.

Anyways, enough of my angry comments. What do you guys think about Sports bloggers? Do you find them more informed then a lot of the actual beat writers out there?
