Gotta say it: Great stories from The Athletic Bay Area this morning. TABA doesn't exist anymore except as a distant memory, but these writers and these stories keep coming and they're tremendous.
@timkawakami TABA roster was so stacked I absolutely had to subscribe. The overall roster is still great, but to have that many all-stars in one region was a mini golden era of the short lived insurgent-brand journalism wave
@timkawakami I haven’t seen a Barrows article in a while. Vacation?
@timkawakami I miss TABA. Podcasts galore, content was king, writers even engaged. This version might not be as good but is still significantly better than the competition so staying.
@timkawakami Feel like that era came at a great time. Warriors dynasty kicking off. Kd free agency - the lack of reliable first hand news sources - flashbacks of when / if @SherwoodStrauss would be coming on board. Like he was Jordan on a bus.
@timkawakami hmmm. sounds like an angle for a substack...
@timkawakami Marcus is the best in the business. Bar none. One of the last of a dying breed.
