I'm not a current subscriber but seeing how they're scooping up a number of major NFL writers, I'm thinking about it. Always had issues with fee-based news sites. One of the main reason I pretty much ignore ESPN web site.

I gave in and subscribed just for Bob Sturm. Worth it to me.
 
Hawk, why subscribe when everything they write ends up here? If you don't like Cowherd, Bayliss, Sharpe or any of the other talking heads or writers, you are going to see and hear about them here anyway, if they have anything to say about the Cowboys. Especially if it's negative.
 
I'm not. Seems worth it, but lately I'm content on getting news via forums like this that post tweets from reputable media members.

Sort of downsizing on where I get sports news from.
