Remember that Best Sports Blogs of 2010 eBook I was telling you folks about? The one with submissions from all of the BallHyped community? The one I was proud to have made the cut on? It's now been committed to print:
That’s right, a coffee table book of some of last year’s best sports blogging . . . and also, some of mine. Many thanks, again, to the BallHyped folks for compiling and editing it!
Last month, I asked you all to punch a chad for TLiW in the BallHyped.com Blog of the Year award. This blog finished fifth, not too shabby of a showing—many thanks to all who voted. You all have been rewarded for your time by the BallHyped folks; they’re serving up 200+ pages of delicious sports blog content, free for the taking. The BallHyped Best Sports Blogs of 2010 eBook is out, and one of the posts I’m most proud of made the editorial cut. There’s lots more meat on that chicken wing—so if you’re starved for sportswriting, tuck in.
Now, there’s another web awards thing going down: the About.com Reader’s Choice awards. Fellow Big Lead Sports site TheHuddle.com is making a big (deserved) push for the Best Fantasy Football Site category. I’ve been a regular there for something like thirteen years, and the head dude kindly suggested to Huddlers that they throw TLiW on the ballot for Best NFL Team Blog, as well. Since they’re scratching my back, I’ll asking y’all to scratch his.
That link takes you right to the voting form for the Football category of the About.com Reader’s Choice awards. If you don’t mind hooking The Huddle (and TLiW) up, I’d really appreciate it.
Read more...The good folks behind BallHyped.com, a new sports-blog promotion community (kind of a sports-specific Digg, Reddit, etc.), put out a call for nominations for the best sports blog of 2010. Amazingly, TLiW was one of the sixty most-nominated sites, and is therefore a finalist for their Blog of the Year award.
This isn’t an unbiased quality-based scientific thing, here—all the nominations came from BallHyped members, and votes may be cast by any Internet user. That having been said, I’m deeply honored that my fellow sports bloggers threw my name in the ring. So if you have a second, and don’t mind doing me a favor, click on the widget above (or in the sidebar), and vote for The Lions in Winter for BallHyped’s 2010 Blog of the Year. If you need to round out your three-blog ballot, but aren’t sure how, I also endorse my friend Zac at SideLion Report, and my ad network’s flagship site, The Big Lead.
Sorry to hijack the blog with a self-serving meta post. SOON: Three Cups Deep!
