Full description:
We are a baseball website covering all 30 MLB teams. We are currently searching for a writer to cover the Yankees. The type of writer we're looking for is in
the Bill Simmons/Deadspin/Chuck Klosterman vein, but we aren't looking for clones. We don't want traditional beat writers. We're looking for people with something original to say. Basically, we want someone who can make humorous and insightful observations that the average fan will find entertaining. Candidates should be prepared to post at least 2-3 times a week during the season.
We work on an ad revenue share, meaning you will split ad revenue with the other 29 writers on the site. It'll take a while for cash to come in, so we're really looking for someone who wants to write because they enjoy it, the money, however large or small it is, should be kind of a bonus.
Our site is:

Please take a look at the site and if you are interested in joining the Bugs & Cranks team please e-mail us a short bio and a sample post. We'd like to see a post that you would make for the site as if you were writing for it now. Have fun with it.
Please include the team name you'd like to cover in the subject line.
Thank you,
Bugs & Cranks Staff
