Aaron Schatz is the founder of Football Outsiders, which is a widely read and respected football publication covering the NFL. He recently did a bit of publicity with BlogAds and in it he specifically called out Niners Nation as one of the must read sites on the Web.
Here is what he said:
Q: Do you personally have a go-to blogger either for inspiration or provocation? A: Not really. My biggest goal is to find really good team-related blogs that I can read on a regular basis, so that I can link to them and give them more attention when they write something good. Among the best: Niners Nation,18 to 88, Texans Chick, and Brian Bassett’s The Jets Blog.
