According to The Sports Dollar Yardbarker has partnered with Fox Sports. The Partnership will allow Fox Sports to pull sports content from Yardbarker.
This a great move by Fox Sports as they will be able to get a ton of new content at bargain prices. Bloggers will just be happy to get linked up by a major network. It will be interesting to see if some other major networks follow suit. Fox Sports also has a deal with Bleacher Report as well.

“Bloggers will just be happy to get linked up by a major network.”
Negative!! No offense, but you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. If you want the truth, read this.

I had a story (Why NBA Coaches Don’t Matter Much) from my blog NoBloodNoFoul.com featured on Fox Sports. My official opinion is “meh”.
On the one hand, it’s nice to get a little recognition and a link from a top-ranked website. On the other, they don’t do a very good job of crediting me for my work, and they don’t present the article in a formatted manner.
