Hi my name is Lauren and I'm a sucker for compliments, awards, and flattery.
What girl doesn't like hearing, "Hey those jeans make your ass look great!" or "Your hair is ON tonight!" or "Girls Gone Sports [is] the funniest, snarkiest sports blog on the 'net."
Well I don't know about ya'll, but Mandy and I love all three of those.
So thank you to the Dallas Observer for naming this site the Best of Dallas Sports Blog!
Muah!
Best Sports Blog (2007)
Girls Gone Sports
girlsgonesports.net
Once upon a time, the sports gods smiled upon the sports fans of North Texas, which was a nice thing to do considering they'd been acting like jerks lately, what with none of the area teams surviving playoffs. In compensation, the game-friendly gods gave us "Mandy" and "Lauren," two Tarrant County-born, sports-obsessed 20-somethings with access to Blogger, digital cameras and too much free time. The result? Girls Gone Sports, the funniest, snarkiest sports blog on the 'net. GGS combines the newsiness of Deadspin, the sluttiness of Wonkette and the celebrity roasting-ness of Perez Hilton, sprinkled with shots of the GGS bloggers' cleavage alongside items like framed photos of Tony Romo. Instead of a "mock draft," the ladies held a "cock draft," and we suggest you check out the site to see what their prestigious "Panty Creamer of the Week" award is all about. These lady sports bloggers really have some balls.

Two grand slams!
"That was ridiculous. I have never been in anything like that in my life," said Saltalamacchia, who went 4-for-6 with a walk and scored five runs. He came in batting .179 and finished at .262.
Fuck yeah.
That was awesome.
