BSD in Sporting News Today

Spencer Hall of the Sporting Blog listed 3 blogs everyone should read this week in The Sporting News Today for Monday, September 22nd, 2008.  The first one listed is BSD.  Hall said this:

The standard-bearer for balancing pregame prep with punchy news streaming, Black Shoe Diaries is your custom-built wellspring for all things Paterno this season.  And that's precisely the point here: No other blog has handled the question of the aging coaching legend  with greater sensitivity, levity, and honesty than BSD.  It's skilled writing for tricky times in State College, and one of the best Big Ten blogs overall for the obsessed , bratwurst-devouring Midwestern football fan in us all.

When you click on the link above you'll have to maneuver your way to page 28 to see BSD mentioned.

Hooray for Orson Swindle

Very nice of him. A true scholar and gentleman.

off-topic

Any chance we’ll see a “You Found Me” post on BSD in the future, or does SBN not make that information available? That was a classic feature over at RUTS.

Wordpress made it easy

The Wordpress platform had a really nice way to pull all those search terms. BSD has a Sitemeter, which sucks, a lot. There’s a “search engine words” function, but it usually only pulls the search terms of one or two out of every 20 visitors.

I agree

EDSBS is really the only non PSU blog I read.

Don't disparage the Brat

Besides, Iowa’s things are smoked turkey legs and pork tenderloins.

A good tenderloin is a thing of beauty. The turkey legs? Meh…

There is a tractor in the parking lot, West Virginia license EIEIO. Your lights are on.

Brats

Oooh – if you boil them in Yuengling and onions before throwing them on the grill – then, sautee the onions to carmalize them a bit – and throw those on top with a little Dietz and Watson Spicey Brown. Nothin’ better!

Now

If we can just get Orson to put a link to BSD on the EDSBS sidebar we would be set. RUTS, why don’t you get on that?

Sure can.

I’ll send him an email later.

We are not in the midwest!!!!!!

That’s like calling the Dallas Cowboys an East Coast team because they’re in the NFC East!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the record as a longtime supporter of Daryll Clark
