Well don't get me wrong I actually enjoyed listening to Brad on the radio. He seemed like a nice guy. But as far as being qualified...I don't know. His writing and more importantly editorial abilities may have been quite developed but how can you work for the world's largest MMA website as the Editor when you're MMA based knowledge is lacking. I am far from an MMA expert and closer to the newbie end of the continuum, but even I was able to recognize moments on the Beatdown where McCray didn't really seem to know what he was talking about. It just seems to me that this would be a major prerequisite for the job.
Just a thought. As far as the level of writing on Sherdog....it is somewhat lackluster at times and many of the writers do write in a less professional manner than you see on some other websites. While I appreciate humor in articles...every article does not need to be laced from top-to-bottom with it. I will give you points for those remarks. Joe Hall is one of the few whose articles I actually enjoy reading on Sherdog. His feature of Dellagrotte was sweet.
