Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 4692229, member: 1414"] That's rather accurate, except maybe "people who watched the event". One of the interesting twists about cutting the cord for me has been no NESN. So while I never read the game recaps in the paper before, I actually found myself reading one the other day. I haven't seen a Sox game all year except on bar TVs. It was exactly as you described, a nice summary of what happened, when it happened and who did it. The stuff I read is the more in depth stories about roster construction, trades, signings, the draft, player improvement (all of those for all sports), that's where the coverage is now and where writers can add value and analysis. But I'd say that's exactly what the Athletic is good at. As a Patriots fan, Mike Reiss for ESPN is also fantastic at getting that information. [/QUOTE]
