Many thanks to those who’ve taken note of the revamped Mr. Irrelevant. Here are but a few of the rave reviews:
- Sports by Brooks — “Definitely a daily stop!”
- We Are the Postmen — “Indivisible!”
- 100% Injury Rate — “New, improved!”
- DC Sports Bog — “Spiffily relaunched!”
- Pacman Jonesin’ — “A new home!”
- The Big Lead — “A fine mustache!”
- John Ness — “[It] doesn’t make my eyes bleed!”
- With Leather — “Twice as much Mottram!”
So, yeah, two thumbs way up. And, in case you’re wondering, the handsome fellow in that photo is Brooks himself, alongside the lovely Miss Gossip. The two are not an item, but they were at the LA sports bloggers happy hour.
Reminder: DC sports bloggers happy hour IV this Friday!
Update: The hits just keep on coming:
- Awful Announcing — “Joined forces!”
- Brahsome — “Cool design!”
- The Big Picture — “Indonesian prostitutes!”
- Larry Brown Sports — “Sleek looking!”
- The CAA: Life as a Mid-Major — “Two beauties!”

Wow, the LA bloggers look even dorkier than the DC ones do. Take that Hollywood.
They do get bonus points for Miss Gossip though. Damn.

What, no “pretty cool new site design” love? I will go on record as saying that the “Mottram brothers are Eiffel Towering the collective blogosphere”, for whatever that’s worth.

I needed to get my quote in:
The Mottram Brothers have joined forces? The world hasn’t seen a tag team this powerful since Typhoon and Earthquake formed The Natural Disasters.

I think that quote needs to be on a T-shirt 289. Get on that.

It’s true, I sometimes dream about Enrico… but… photoshopping really gets me hot… so I don’t know. If we can get 289 and Enrico to battle rap or something, then I’ll crown Mr. Gossip 2007. Jamie, get on that.

Enrico is from Philly, like he has any chance to with anything.

Miss Gossip: I’d just like to point out that I’m as much as three times more handsome in person, and my freestylin’ skills are almost on par with my dance-off moves, which is to say that they’re rather impressive. I’m undefeated on both fronts.
