SI's Richard Deitsch warned me earlier in the week he'd have something big for me (and my readers) Thursday.
Sure enough: Deitsch has scored a sports blogosphere coup, pulling back the curtain to reveal the wizard behind The Big Lead.
His name is Jason McIntyre, 31, and he lives in Brooklyn. That borough also is home to Deadspin editor Will Leitch, 32, meaning 50 years after losing the Dodgers, Brooklyn remains at the heart of the sports world.
Sort of. Anyway, congrats to Mr. McIntyre and Mr. Deitsch.
So, to sum up, what you are reading is a sports media post by a sports media blogger about a sports media reporter's scoop concerning a sports media blogger, who in August interviewed the first of the aforementioned sports media bloggers.
Is this a great country, or what?
(UPDATE: Now Leitch is reporting he goes to the same gym as McIntyre. Wow. About 12 years ago I was in the same gym as Marvin (The Human Eraser) Webster. Neither of us were bloggers at the time.)
