wonder what the editing process looks like at the players tribune cause all the articles end up having the same truncated, almost conversational prose. detracts a bit from idea that the player is conveying their message directly
Usually I would think they’re done with a ghostwriter to format and make it look better.
For this one when reading I was amazed at how poorly it was formatted (the use of brackets like this every paragraph even)
With the actual subheadings as talking points as well lmao. I think this is probably done by Norm or they have some writers who write in this style to mimic the player.
Ben Simmons rn is already better than what Trae will ever be.
Stop this mess
Dont be ridiculous
I’m almost 100% sure the “bite me” sticker wasn’t on CLB Gyro’s avi when I gave it to him
I hate you
So the game starts off with the refs missing an obvious out of bounds call right in front of their face, us bricking a bunch of 3s, and tatum getting hammered but no call. good to know I can turn this one off

Like nearly every post on the site, the Ortiz essay was not written directly by its bylined athlete but instead crafted from a recorded interview with a Tribune staff producer. Hoenig said these interviews are less traditional question-and-answer sessions than monologues with questions to nudge the conversation along.
Feel like translating a verbal interview into a written essay is more transformative than they let on, especially since, as you said, it appears the ghostwriter is purposefully emulating an amateurish style of writing
Still find their work more interesting than other sports journalism tho
What’s wrong with this assessment lol
Kane is proven in the Prem you know you’re guaranteed goals.
Haaland is a risk. We seen plenty players not cut out for the prem
Gyro avy fr the most angry I’ve ever been on this website

His defence is better than Trae’s offence and Simmons will get you 15-20 points depending on how lazy he’s feeling.
He’s just not comparable

and we're starting a literal white supremacist. when the f*** is this team going to stay healthy for more than 1 day? never?

Nets -11 was a trap
