Deadspin’s Will Leitch stands tall to swearing old dude

On Costas Now, H.G. “Buzz” Bissinger, author of the book Friday Night Lights, made it very clear that sports blogs are an obscene atrocity. And did it all while repeatedly swearing.

In the segment, Will Leitch of Deadspin does a fine job at making Bissinger – who’s really not that old and is actually a perfect example of the modern print sportswriter – look like a man desperately trying to hang on to a dying media – the newspapers. And Leitch did it with class, unlike Bissinger.

“I’m not the future,” Bissinger said.

Which is really all that need to be said.

Take a look at the video at Deadspin here.
