KSK, the winner of Best Sports Blog in 2006,2007, and 2008 in the Weblog Awards, is one of the most trafficked sports blogs on the internet. Led by BigDaddyDrew AKA Drew Magary (author of Men With Balls), KSK offer a satiracal reflection on the NFL, and apparantly in the case of UnsilentMajority, a surefire way to lose money on the games. Also, they do get credit for one of my favorite nicknames in the NFL "Purple Jesus" Originally these guys met as Deadspin commentators, and the blog does reflect the snarky tone on the website. One of my favorite recurring features, Fantasy Football and Sex Advice Mailbag, really showcases their wit. Other times, though, the site kinda goes for the lowbrow cheap pop. It's like when a wrestling face talks up the home city when he has nothing else left to say. KSK sometimes feels juvenile - BDD is a fucking talented man, but I can only deal with laughing about elementary school jokes for so long. It's odd, I feel like I should like it, but I never check the sight more than once a week, while Deadspin/MYFO/ and recently The Rookies get checked at least once a day. Funny, but not quite as high as people rate it.
