DANICA PATRICK

An Open Letter to Danica Patrick

Dear Danica Patrick,

How are you? Me? I'm good. Dealing with a sinus infection, but I'll be fine.

Here's the deal. I like you. Not in a romantic way, but I'm a fan of car racing. Always have been. Huge fan, actually. I go to two NASCAR races a year and have followed auto racing all my life (I'm 33). I'm writing to let you know I'm not happy with a few choices you have made.

Reintroducing The Bad Quarterback League: This Time With More JaMarcus Russell

JaMarcus Russell
Brett Davis/US Presswire

Readers of Grantland,

The response to Grantland’s Bad Quarterback League has been encouraging, intimidating and extremely helpful. But the Declaration of Independence was not perfected in one draft and neither was our original set of BQBL rules.

We received a slew of missives from readers with astute questions and/or suggestions that we had not considered or were too dumb to include the first time around. So before we started tallying points this season, we felt like it was important to address some of these issues and clarify the scoring and scheduling. Our addendum to the BQBL introduction is below. Everybody deserves a second chance to make things right, especially JaMarcus Russell.

Sincerely,

David Jacoby
