And yes, I am aware I accidentally put June 20 instead of June 30 when I sent it out. If that's the worst thing I do all day I'll take it.

I'd argue that the best path to the top of the sports charts is to have a robust non-sports presence in your newsletter.

After all, from a social standpoint, sports are just male-coded reality tv/celebrity drama. The most interesting stuff tends to be what happens alongside the game, rather than the game itself.

That's why Jomboy's breakdown of the Mariners-Angels fight both:

1) Takes 15 minutes to explain

2) Remains compelling for the full 15 minutes.

Anyway, congratulations! Thank you for all the sports and non-sports writing that wouldn't (and couldn't) be written by anyone else
