"There are certain preconceptions that people, especially mainstream media, have about bloggers and those who are heavily engaged in fantasy sports , and well, many of them may be true," Joe Favorito writes, adding, "They hide behind a computer screen and never face those who they criticize . . . they live in their parents basement and use the written word as a cry out to all who have wronged them in the past . . . they have little or no knowledge and only exist to grab some fame with outlandish and unsubstantiated rumors and on and on. However, like the other “media scourges” before them…radio, then TV, then college students and media, then cable TV, then talk radio, then mainstream internet . . . the medium for bloggers is becoming more professional, more thoughtful, more informed and more passionate with each passing season."
