The best writers at Grantland

are Brian Phillips and Shea Serrano.

This a thought I've had for a long time. The first time I noticed Phillips was May 2012. The first time I really caught on to Serrano was October 2014.

Both are consistently awesome, and a must-read, no matter the subject. Both have an abundance of great quotes. Here is just a taste.

The year was 2002. American soccer, normally a global power, was going through one of its brief down periods, this one having begun in August of 1930. -- Brian Phillips

“Heat check!” I like to shout “Heat check!” on my first shot of the game. “Heat check!” almost always precedes a miss. -- Shea Serrano
