Frank DeFord will not lose any sleep.
...especially since he's been comatose since 1995. I can be a cheap-shot artist, too. It doesn't take any particular skill.
Thank you for posting this; I hadn't realized such a contest was going on. I really enjoyed his piece on Pittsburgh's trick plays. I see what I hope SI.com wanted from the fore: find a blogger with potential they can snatch up cheaply.
Well, I'm sure the folks at SI.com would like to get their hands on someone with Ty's potential, but that won't be likely since the contest was run by foxsports.com, which is partnered with The Sporting News, not Sports Illustrated. There's a difference, however, between potential and greatness; thus, the reference to Mr. DeFord.
