I think we can all agree that BleacherReport is pretty much worthless as far as NFL analysis is concerned. We can probably all also agree that Matt Miller is a hack. But being that it is the offseason, I had to share this because it may be the most absurd ranking I've ever seen in Miller's NFL 1000 annual series. If you feel this thread deserves to be locked, so be it, but: In what world is Danny Amendola better than Brandon Marshall?!? Better yet, in what world is Brandon Marshall the 20th best WR in football?! Good lord
Bleacher is all blogsphere articles. Its all hypotheticals and wacky scenarios. You really cannot got to them for analysis or ranking. They don't have a research department, they use Wiki They build on their content dump. Its so much shit that hits the Sports news that its almost impossible not to across it.
i was reading that article during class today and almost had a nervous breakdown seeing where they ranked b marsh anyone who watched this team last year knows we aren't 10-6 without him. he willed us to some victories
That websites sole intention is for its articles to make way to a teams fanbase and message board , in order to generate clicks/feedback. So mission complete on their part.
The First Amendment was created because putting a bill up on a tavern wall or signpost could get you hung by the Crown. Putting words on a wall was a dangerous undertaking in colonial America in the 1700's. Most of the things posted in this way were Bleacher Report quality. A few of them were important enough to really matter.
Of course Bleacher Report isn't great; the writers aren't professionals, that's the whole point of the site. The idea that you can spout off whatever you want and they'll give you a platform to put it out there (as long as it meets the minimum quality threshold.)
That was true originally, but that isn't the business model. They got enough ad clicks to hire professional hacks by turning every article into a slideshow. Once the hacks get them enough clicks, they'll hire legitimate writers (probably the ones leftover once the tabloid rags go belly up) and they'll change the site name to something that doesn't involve stupid fans writing inane blog posts.
