Stark #2!!!

ESPN.com - INSIDER/BLOG/STARK_JAYSON - STARK_JAYSON BLOG

Not sure he has what it takes to successfully blog, but he will have to keep his guild-esque attitude in mind at all times.

To quote:

Thanks to the blogosphere, we get to read all kinds of new voices who actually spend way too much of their lives devoting way too much creative thought to baseball, for little or zero compensation.

This is part of what makes blogging fun. We do it not because we are paid but because we love the sport/topic - although any of us would gladly give-up our days jobs for Mr. Starks' job - even at a greatly reduced salary!

Baseball is not rocket science and requires no advanced educational training beyond the ability to read and write. It requires an ability to watch and read about and examine a game that our ADHD society deems slow and boring.

If not for derivative analysis like fantasy sports, I wonder if Starks would even have to blog?

Would he have gone the sad, sad way of Baseball Weekly? or should I say Baseball Two-Days-A-Week after adding NASCAR?
