   So basically, neither new location will have any BBQ. Zero. Nada. Making this another in a long line of click-bait articles. It’s sad to see how far this blog has fallen in just the last 5 years…

   Aw, no, I like the dfb’s reporting. It is truthful and always includes great photos.

   Lee,
   You do realize that if you go about 10 miles east on Osceola Parkway you’ll find an actual 4Rivers Smokehouse on the south side of the street, right?

   That has nothing to do with my point. I know where many BBQ restaurants in Orlando (and the parks) are. My point is that this blog, which used to be a great source of information, has devolved into the “click-bait” model, where:

   1) The first image in the article often has absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing, to do with the actual article.
   2) The titles are purposely written to lead you to believe that there is certain information in the post (like “We’ve got the deets on Space 2020 Opening!!!!!” when in fact the post has no details on opening. I don’t remember this happening 5 years ago here. Now it happens *daily*.

   Worst of all, it appears AJ has turned over most of the writing to 12-15 year-olds, because:

   1) Grammar and spelling are at a new low in this blog.
   2) Excessive use of !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! exclamation points and italics.
   3) Taking every opportunity to use words like “deets” and “adorbs”. This is fine occasionally, but when when you do it in almost every post, it gets old. Very old. Fast.

   I used to really respect this blog, but in the last year the signal-to-noise ratio and the click-baiting have gotten so bad it’s just hard to even read. It makes me sad.
