    Zimmerman’s Blog Is Really Good!!!!!11!!

    By Chris Mottram | May 8, 2008

    Pointing our readers in the direction of Ryan Zimmerman’s blog on Comcast SportsNet’s site might be bad for our t-shirt shop business, but it must be done. Agent Steinz alerted us to Zim’s blog, which has one post so far, titled “My 1st BLOG!!!” For Ryan’s sake, I really hope his ghostwriter is a 12-year-old girl. An excerpt:

    This is my first blog of many this season. First off, it’s nice that we have put together some wins lately.

    The new stadium is fantastic!!! If you have not been out there yet with the weather getting nicer, please come. It’s an incredible ballpark.

    It’s been so nice to see good size crowds. It really is fun to play before a loud crowd that is into the game.

    I hated to see Wizards lose in the playoffs. I went to a lot of games this past off season and it was so much fun.

    Surprisingly, there wasn’t a happy faced smiley after “fanastic!!!” nor was there one with a single tear after the bit about the Wizards. And that excerpt is not only the majority of the post, but it’s exactly as it was written — nothing was taken out of order or context. Shit, maybe Bissinger was right. I am dumber for having read that blog.

    But hey, great idea by whoever came up with this doozy over at Comcast. I mean, it’s, like, soooo obvious that being a famous athlete equates to being a good blogger.

      Dude, calling Littles a 12 year-old girl is NOT cool.

      I’m actually disappointed that there’s not a “totally!” somewhere in there.

      How about you start signing ‘Motts’ at the end of your entries like ‘Zim’?

      Whatever it takes for Zim to get out of his long slump is OK by me. His 2 jacks last night were “SUPER!”

      At the risk of criticizing an employer of mine, I’ll say that Zimm’s blog needs more emoticons. ;-)

      It was only his 1st BLOG!!! He’ll learn about emoticons (or “smilies”) by his 2nd!!! or 3rd!!! BLOG!!!

      I’m sure all UVA alums are impressed by the depth of though from Zim here.

      I bet they especially like the exclamation points!!!

      @JakeTheSnake: Not all of us, but the number of sororities at UVA would lead me to believe you’re probably right about the exclamation points.
