What Is The Grantland Book Good For? A Deadspin Investigation

The second issue of the McSweeney's Grantland Quarterly is out now. For those of you unfamiliar with the title, the quarterly is a $25 anthology of Grantland.com stories you could read online for free. Why take a collection of internet posts and re-publish them on heavy paper stock set between two lavishly designed covers? What's the use of a book like that? We gave some copies of the first quarterly to our interns and had them investigate.
