there was a point in time where i would never go to bleacher report. but now it seems they have hired some actual good writers. jeremy botter, jonathan snowden, jack slack and they just hired chad dundas. it seems like they are moving in a positive direction. the article snowden wrote about ufc contracts was fantastic.
now if they just got rid of those stupid fucking slideshows, i'd be completely on board.
i gave bleacher report a chance today, came across a link to a ranking list i wanted to read, but after realizing they wanted me to click through a 25 page slideshow to read a single article i came to the conclusion that bleacher report can go fuck themselves.
smth416 - Is Snowden still a jerk? I enjoyed his book but man is he unlikable on the interwebs.
Snowden is the snarky nerd who wrote "Hater Aid" articles about Belfort and Bonnar on B/R.
Bonnar article was round Bonnar-Silva and was so bad that Stephan took offense publicly.
Snowden got rid of both articles and with a phony apology he thought all was ok.
Then Colton Smith won TUF over Mike Ricci.
Snowden's article?
Colton Smith is bad for the Army.
What were his reasons as to why Smith is a bad representation for the Army?
Well one was that his shorts looked like grey briefs.
So either Snowden was curiously drawn to the tight trunks or somehow fighting in plain, tight trunks made the Army look bad.
Fuck Snowden.
Bleacher Report is better for having a Jack Slack byline but Snowden is an aggressive self aggrandizing provocateur with a bully pulpit because he runs from any debate by having comments removed or at Bloody Elbow getting folks banned.
Fuck Snowden.
He was a pussy over Belfort, Bonnar and Smith and likely still tries to do the same thing with his work.
