After 11 years of reading Deadspin, I can safely say the smartest analysis on any given “sport” comes from the boxing enthusiasts. Sure, that’s an symptom of more popular sports attracting casual commenters, but I think it all starts with Farrell, and of course Nolan as well. I’d be crazy if I didn’t tip my hat to Ben…
