I'm curious, Which site do you guys find more useful and worth your time, leaving personalities out of it. The Bird Writes or Bourbon Street Shots? I'm not trying to start a pissing contest. I just want to know honest opinions.

Nothing personal to Oleg and co.

You really have to find the authors you like more than the sites you like. I like a few authors on each site and honestly don't care for the rest. But the stuff I don't like might appeal to others. For instance, each site seems to have a guy that tries to use humor as a differentiator and I almost never like anything they write because comic relief isn't what I'm looking for when reading an article about the Pels. There are probably other people who think it's great.

BSS podcast >>>>>>>> TBW podcast

TBW just launched their podcast and I had to turn it off. It was unbearable

I enjoy both websites. TBW has more articles with more speculation and opinion pieces but way less in depth. BSS, regardless of how you feel about them, mostly have very well thought out, intelligent, and in depth (almost to a fault) articles. I trust BSS more than TBW because of that.

Personalities excluded, BSS by far for me. The understanding of the CBA by McNamara and 42 are unmatched. I suppose it all depends on what you're looking for as a fan, but I feel like TBW caters more to casual fans looking for flashy headlines and pointless speculation.

I definitely like TBW's format better but you can attribute that to SB Nation. I like how they have a fan post section. BBS, as others said previously, has better content, but a less than ideal format.

Why not both?

You guys have two good sites that give you great, in depth content that you won't get anywhere else.

Why does it have to be one or the other? It SHOULD be: Do I get my Pels info from TBW/BSS or do I rely on it from the national media who never watches a game but spouts off opinions anyway
