There isn't a whole lot of reward to this sports blogging venture of mine. I'm a few months in and I can't say that I've seen any income and surprisingly there isn't a big "groupie" fan base. (Who knew that bloggers didn't live like rock stars?) So when someone says a kind word about me, hell if someone even knows I exist, I'm truly grateful. But more importantly, I wonder how much they've had to drink. For instance, South Carolina based FITSNews.com has been very outspoken in their support for The Report. Here's an excerpt from a recent post:
| As we discovered earlier this week, the Horace Grant Halftime Report (written by “The Drew Franklin”) is the funniest sports blog that you’ve never heard of. Except it’s not just the funniest sports blog you’ve never heard of, it’s the funniest sports blog that nobody’s ever heard of, apparently. This guy is going to be giving Deadspin a run for its money in a few years, people and we’ll be able to say we “knew him when.” Seriously, it’s like that time we saw Dave Matthews Band perform in front of fewer than 500 people at the Sewanee gym in 1993 – except this time we’re not high.* |
In all honesty, I really appreciate the support from FITSNews. (That means go to his site now and like it.) Am I the next Deadspin? Highly doubtful. But I can always try. I appreciate the 20 of you that like what I'm doing and I will try my best to entertain. But if things don't start showing promise soon, I'll probably just make the switch to hardcore porn. Who doesn't like porn?

They were more than likely high, but they were right. This blog is great and very likely to be the next big sports blog. Keep up the great work!
