Yikes … sorry for the neglected blog

Yeah,  so June’s almost over and I haven’t written anything here for a long time. My July resolution is to do more writing on my own, so hopefully more stuff will be up here soon. In the meantime, here’s some cool stuff from both the Flint Journal and It’s Just Sports that I’ve been working on,  just to prove it hasn’t been total laziness on my part and that I actually do still write:

Interviews: Brandon Carr, Kevin Tiggs, JaVale McGee, Rich Rodriguez, John Beilein, Curtis Granderson, Rick Mahorn

Best of the Worst: Counting down the worst Detroit athletes of the last 20 years. We’re halfway through the Lions now. The Tigers are complete.

Some Lions stuff at Bleacher Report

I’ve been doing some Lions stuff at Bleacher Report. Check it out if you’re so inclined:

The Detroit Lions are Already Better Than You Think

Why Don’t Detroit Lions Fans Really Know Calvin Johnson?

Why be a Detroit Lions Fan? The Matt Millen Era, Of Course

What is Reasonable For Lions Fans to Expect Out of Kevin Smith?

Scott Linehan Will Have a Productive Offense in Detroit Without Stars

Will Daunte Culpepper Be This Year’s Kurt Warner?

Hey, I’ve got to stop using ‘Hey’ in headlines

It’s rude. I’ll work on it.

Hey, I still get to write for the newspaper sometimes

First story I’ve actually been able to write in a while, since 90 percent of my job is (poorly) designing pages now. Check that out.

Best things I read this week: Matt Stafford’s money and a takedown of commenters (not written by me)

The Medium: Commenters on newspaper sites are generally dolts. But we’ve been over that before.

Real Clear Sports: An interview with Chief White House Correspondent Chuck Todd. His take on ESPN is spot on.

Columbus Post-Dispatch: Hey newspaper sports departments, maybe you should do more fun stories like this. No? Cool with game recaps? Whatevs.

The Big Lead: Interview with Tim Kawakami, a newspaper sports columnist who doesn’t hate blogs. Weird.

NESW Sports: We’ve seen it a million times, but here’s Barkley’s Wolverine commercial.

NFC North Blog: Matt Stafford has more guaranteed money than Ben Roethlisberger, Peyton Manning and Tony Romo.

Today, the 2003-2004 Pistons season look back is up on Detroit Bad Boys. Check that out.

Here is the 2002-2003 recap I did yesterday.
