brian galliford is awesome, and should run for president.

by the_prophet on Jul 24, 2009 6:27 PM EDT

can i just say that i love you, brian? i go to these other blogs - yes, even the SBNation ones - and i read these posts, and there's grammatical errors left and right, and words spelled wrong, and poor sentence structure...it makes me really frustrated that i went into music (where no one cares about this stuff) instead of something interesting like journalism (which i would have enjoyed but been terrible at).

your posts are always thought-provoking, and you rarely exhibit your (completely natural) homer tendency except to make a point. you actually care enough about your 'image' to edit posts for clarity and errors, and you take any trash anyone talks about you and let it roll off your skin. and, if that wasn't enough, you're actually a funny guy! you don't take yourself so seriously that you're boring!

even during these long summer months, with a dearth of real content to post about, you continue to craft interesting posts that make us bill-ieve and get us feeling all warm and fuzzy all over again about our team.

the best part is that, as a result of your thoughtful and accurate posts, we actually have good discussion of topics instead of the cat-fighting that goes on at some of these other sites.

you're awesome, brian. i'd vote for you.

all right, everyone, let's give a hand to the best editor in SBNation....BRIAN GALLIFORD!

You ought to write for a national sports magazine. The content on this site is endless, and intelligent.

seriously though…bravo, Brian.

I don't know about the President thing but..

Brian does do a good job over here. I don’t know about his avatar though because I personally think “Lost” sucks but other than that…good job Brain.

And P.S.
the_prophet: Matty over at the Phinsider never has errors (that I can find) so if you want to see non errors ever and good writing by a rival, head over there. I’m also sure no one would mind you in discussion either.

i’m not specifically ratting on certain people, but there are some particularly poor writers in blogs today that people listen to. that frustrates me.

by the_prophet on Jul 24, 2009 8:15 PM EDT up reply actions

oh I realize that

and I understand what you mean. I was just basically inviting you over to The Phinsider if you ever want to discuss anything and without errors. There is a lot of other SB Nation blogs of NFL teams where I question the management. But not here or a few others. It is well run here.

This is a terrible idea! Brian can’t be the president and still have time to run the best blog on the internet.

But seriously, Brian deserves all the praise that we can throw his way.

Agreed. Vote “no” for Brian as president.

If he were president though, would any of us have a chance to be a cabinet member?

Great question!

I want to hang out in the oval office…minus pants of course.

Who wouldn’t want to hang out in the oval office without pants? I will bet you everything I own (and there is no way we can ever prove it) that each and every president has gone pantless in that room. No freaking doubt about that….

Can he get me affordable health care?

Seriously though, I agree that us Rumblers are indeed spoiled. Brian (and the rest of the editorial staff) do a great job keeping this site as 1-stop shopping for all my Bills needs. The only reason I still go to BB.com is for the videos and the access that Chris Brown has that none of us are privileged enough to have (OK, CB is still good for some quality stories). Maybe we can all chip in to send Brian to the “Canadian ballet” to show our appreciation.

Oh yeah…I voted for his avatar. I LOVE YOU KATE AUSTIN!

I'll donate $1 to help Mary Wilson pay the estate tax...who's with me?!?

Yeah, Brian really deserves a lot of credit. I have always been incredibly impressed at how he has written an interesting article about the Bills nearly every day this off-season. I’m glad BR has one of the more active communities of the SB blogs; Brian’s worked hard and deserves it.

Brian's the best!

great writer, excellent blogger. Love and president? Too carried away I think you are!

The time to deliver is now and if you fail to do so you will no doubt witness the consequences first hand.

Just tell them to F@#$ off and you will get banned :-)

Or you could just stop posting.

ive stopped posting, i just didnt want the embarrassment of having that blog on my profile

I think you could probably ask the editor to remove you........

thats just a guess though.
