What’s the rest of the blogosphere (and beyond) saying about Detroit Bad Boys? Here’s a list of unsolicited praise thrown our way:
“Any blog with a post entitled “Rick Telander: Hack” gets our attention. But we also love the writing, the design and just about everything else about it.”
– Named “Blogdome’s Best” Detroit Pistons blog by Deadspin
“Love the banner. My eyes popped open when I saw it. What do you do when writing about the best team in the game, running away with the conference title? Nitpick the small things like Delfino and Maurice Evans’ minutes.”
– Sam Rubenstein, SLAMonline
“The blog’s author, Matt Watson, a freelance writer, usually steers clear of most Internet dribble (DARKO SUCKS! DARKO’S THE BEST!). Worth a read when you’re done with Freep.com.”
– Detroit Free Press
“Our fave new Bullets site, DETROIT BAD BOYS BLOG keeps bringing home the bacon!!”“DETROIT BAD BOYS: YOU ARE DEAD TO US!!!” (Explanation here.)
– The Wizznutzz
“Now, normally we wouldn’t hype one [blog] much more than another. However, we came across one that we have to point out as it is probably one of the best NBA team sites out there. Without a doubt, it is better than any of the NBA sanctioned sites. … Best of all, though, is the site is enjoyable and a great read for people who aren’t big Pistons’ fans. … [We] suggest all Magic fans to check out the site now and in the future to see how well a sports site focusing on a particular team can be operated. The people at NBA.com should take notice.”
– Todd Sikorski, Believing in Magic
“The Pistons have a better team than the Bucks, better management than the Bucks, a richer history than the Bucks, now it turns out they have better bloggers too. If you are a fan of basketball and good writing I strongly recommend you visit the Detroit Bad Boys blog. Well written, well informed, and funny, its everything this little blog aspires to be but rarely is. ”
– Milwaukee Bucks Diary
Jamie Mottram: “It’s pretty much the best Pistons blog I found out there — am I right in assuming that?”
Matt Watson: “Yeah, you know, I think you probably are.”
– AOL’s Sports Bloggers Live
