“SPORTSbyBROOKS will revolutionize your life”

Posted by Brooks on Jun. 20, 2010, 3:34pm

Much of my 16-year main media career was spent in sports radio as a talk show host, play-by-play announcer and program director. When I created the internet’s first sports blog in May, 2001, it wasn’t called a “blog” back then and I was still working full-time in radio.

For the first few years I was writing SbB, I worked part- and full-time at Fox Sports Radio, ESPN Radio and Sporting News Radio. While there’s a lot of sports radio guys now blogging, one guy in particular has emerged as the leader in the field: Larry Brown of LarryBrownSports.com.

Larry’s no newbie, he’s been running his site for a few years now and his blog has become a legit player on the sports media landscape. If you work in sports and don’t have it bookmarked by now, you aren’t doing your job.

So I suppose it was none too ironic when Larry got a call on his nationally syndicated Sporting News Radio show last night from a caller named James from Detroit who voiced an unprompted appreciation for my mom’s favorite sports blog based in Venice Beach.

From James from Detroit on Sporting News Radio last night:

I get in a lot of sports arguments and you are 100% right, if you really care about sports as much as you think you do, SPORTSbyBROOKS will revolutionize your life. That’s just my personal opinion but if you think you care about sports, SPORTSbyBROOKS is where it’s at.

Thanks for that, James.

SbB is one of the few sports sites I read every day. You regularly post items hours or days before the WWL or MSM gets to them.

“When I created the internet’s first sports blog in May, 2001, it wasn’t called a “blog” back then and I was still working full-time in radio.”

Huh? There were plenty of sites that were active long before 2001 that would be called blogs these days. I wrote for a “by the fan, for the fan” hockey site called InTheCrease in the mid-90’s, and I’m sure there were similar sites for the other major sports as well around that time.

Not even close to truth….
