The Sports Blogs Scene

“Credible news organizations are getting their information, leads, and story ideas from blogs run by part-time sports fans with day jobs as administrative assistants and office supply salesmen,” writes Chris Illuminati. However, “The sports blog scene is already over saturated; each blog trying to out-scoop the latest factual information, funny captions, or live blogs during sporting events. Some poke, prod and report on the entire world of sports. Some cater just to a certain demographic and fan base. The Philadelphia sports scene has a few of the more popular sites on the net; popular with fans for their humor and knack for beating local media to a story.”
