   The sports columns/blogs of fiverthirtyeight.com haven't had an entry   
   since April 26, while the rest of their content is still updating

   I understand ESPN.com has had layoffs.  Is there connection?  I think   
   the sports contributors were drawn from multiple regions and were not

   source disappears.
