I stopped reading the site regularly awile back, but I've always enjoyed a lot of their content despite not liking Will Leitch much. Always a shame to see a website capable of quality content get shuttered though.

That's too bad. I liked a lot of stuff from Sports on Earth, even if they got into navel-gazey basketblogger stuff a lot, but that'll happen when you hire writers from The Classical.

I signed up for the Athletic during their last half off promotion. I like it.

I'm not sure I can support people getting paid for their work though.

Ken Tremendous (Michael Schur from The Good Place) and Posnanski do a weekly podcast that is pretty good, except that Posnanaski has a voice for newspapers.

Leitch was the editor-in-chief of the Daily Illini when I was in matriculation there.
