If you noticed that Help Wanted posting some weeks ago, or if you’ve been following the frequent teases on Twitter the past couple weeks, then you know what’s coming:
Bleacher Nation has entered the football space, and is now offering BN-like coverage of the Chicago Bears.
That new page comes courtesy of an exhaustive search for the right person to lead the coverage at the new Bears page, which landed on Jay Rigdon, who introduces himself here.
You can check out Jay’s first substantive piece here – what could he possibly discuss after yesterday’s completely boring, and not at all enraging game against the hapless Vikings? – and you should make the BN Bears page a part of your regular Bears consumption process. I’m very excited to have Jay on board, and I can’t wait to see what he does with the place. Although it won’t be precisely the same as the Cubs coverage here, I think you’ll really enjoy it.
For you Cubs-only types, you won’t really notice any changes here at “www.bleachernation.com,” proper. It’s still all Cubs, all me (and Luke and occasional guest contributors), all the time. The Bears posts will be on the Bears page, and the Cubs posts will be here on the Cubs page. No need to freak out.
But for the many of you who love the Bears like you love the Cubs, check out the BN Bears page, and make sure to follow Jay on Twitter.
