Default Rapoport - crushing it!

The Rap Sheet is now the go-to Pats Blog. This guy is outworking the competition. He has broken most of the mini-scoops this pre season, i.e. injuries, cuts etc.. When he first started at the Herald, I was put off by the quirky prose style, the personal marratives etc. But I really appreciate the hustle. He is covering a beat as a journalist should IMO.

I wouldn't say he's the go-to blog guy, but he's having a great day. Reiss is surprisingly quiet - -I think he tends to be more of a front office contact guy, where Rapoport comes across as friendly with players. Globe folks are dead quiet; Breer seems intent on being a national guy.

Rapoport is pitching a perfect game, pounding the strike zone. Whoops, wrong sport, but you get the idea.

To appease the football gods, you must do a lap around Rex Ryan.

Ian has been a great addition, he usually gets stuff posted before Reiss but Reiss is always the unofficial official word.

Umm.. Reiss is reporting stuff via Twitter.. As is Chris Price and Rappaport.I don't consider Rappaport the "Go To" guy since he's been wrong about several things of late and jumped the gun on the Chris Taylor getting cut story.

I haven't been that impressed with Rappaport and he's still not in the league with Mike Reiss..

Rap just reported the Reiss said that Clayton was cut. So now he is "crushing' Reiss.

I disagree there. It went back and forth between all the writers..

People choose to believe what they want, whether it's reality or not.
