I thought it was mostly funny, but obviously someone who believes in or sympathizes with Albom's view would not likely be a fan. It obviously wasn't a serious article as well so it shouldn't be judged as one.
I think they do a pretty good job of basically be a media watchdog.
I actually think Albom does come off looking pretty bad in his article but this guy is just as bad. He admits he doesn't watch baseball and he is doing the same thing Albom is doing. Albom is mocking and laughing at saber fans mostly because he doesn't get the benefits of sabermetrics or want to take the time to learn more about them. This douchebag writer is doing the same thing in mocking Album. He doesn't know a damn thing about baseball or what Album is really arguing. The irony is laughable and it's bad enough if your only writing to be funny and entertain but Deadspin writers take themself seriously.
You guys should be waiting til someone with actually baseball and saber knowledge writes their retort to Album. I promise you it'll be much better.
