While I liked some of the stories on Grantland it did seem like it must have cost a fortune to pay all the writers they had and they had a ton of overlap between writers that they didn't seem to need.
I would also say that some of my least favorite/uninteresting writers came from there and as a fan of Bill Simmons him constantly promoting them despite them sucking got very annoying.
I hope Simmons will focus more on his opinions and stuff that makes him good than trying to promote his buddies, but with a weekly Joe House podcast it looks like it may get even worse now that he has free reign.
