This one is really my "go-to"...I'm a big Bill Simmons fan.Just read The Ringer piece. Had heard the item on 690 this morning. I really enjoyed the quality, in-depth writing of the article.
Love sites like this. Have seen other well-written pieces on sites like Five Thirty Eight and occasionally on Deadspin.
Any other sites of this quality, that you enjoy reading?
That entire article brings sports investigative journalism to a whole new level.This quote from The Ringer piece, is a gem:
The elder Colangelo joined the Sixers organization in late 2015—reportedly with encouragement from the NBA—to speed up Hinkie’s so-called “Process,” the slash-and-burn rebuild that amassed draft assets, cap space, and copious losses.
The slash-and-burn rebuild sounds like something the Habs should be doing for another two years.
I wonder how many athletes or sports executive have ghost twitter accounts. I bet more than most think.
