Been hearing some rumblings of some very good articles lately. Does anybody subscribe to The Athletic, is it good? Is it interesting? Do you get access to other sports/teams/etc?
You're right. I spend all of my time only reading articles from GT journalism grads. I've freed up a lot of time by doing that.When there are so many outlets providing free information/articles/depth charts/interviews/videos, I would never be able to pay for some wall-text subscription. Not when I can get the bullet points on here. I get it though, if this dwag is as good as y'all make her out to be covering GT. Extremely antithetical for StingTalk though.
Pics?I have it. Tori is great!
Still better than UGA engineering.You're right. I spend all of my time only reading articles from GT journalism grads. I've freed up a lot of time by doing that.
Am I supposed to be impressed? Tori does a great job of getting insights from inside the program that I haven’t seen elsewhere. If you don’t want that feel free to abstain.When there are so many outlets providing free information/articles/depth charts/interviews/videos, I would never be able to pay for some wall-text subscription.

You may be confusing the Athletic with jacketsonline. There is no aspect of “first to know” or “insider knowledge” here - just good journalism about the program. That said, I have learned things about the team I haven’t seen elsewhere, but that’s just icing on the cake.I would never pay for “premium” sports content. Especially news about my team. Everything that is written about will be public knowledge within hours or days anyway. I should pay $10-$15/mo to be one of the first to know? No thanks.
Not even close. Now, The Athletic isn't really breaking any news, just reporting interesting things. But I see very little of what is in those pieces posted here.I would never pay for “premium” sports content. Especially news about my team.

I'm not paying some u'GAGGING whore to tell me about Georgia Tech football.Am I supposed to be impressed? Tori does a great job of getting insights from inside the program that I haven’t seen elsewhere. If you don’t want that feel free to abstain.
When you are dealing with establishment Atlanta media, that public knowledge of what happens with Georgia Tech within "hours or days" could stretch into "months, years, or ever."I would never pay for “premium” sports content.
