1. 11Points.com is a blog made up entirely of 11-item lists. Because top 10 lists are for cowards.
2. Every list is written by one guy. His name is Sam Greenspan. That's his photo up there. He's a writer, producer and performer living in Los Angeles.
3. And by that, he actually does make his living doing those things. It's not one of those L.A. things where he's a writer by night and, like, a Benihana chef during the day.
5. He's originally from the Cleveland area and, although this may not be evident from this website, he's a classically trained journalist from Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism. Although they never mention him in the newsletters.
6. He loves lists. Enough to write one almost daily.
7. 11 was one of his lucky numbers growing up. So was 25. He liked 25 because it was Mark Price's number on the Cavs, and Mark Price is the patron saint of all short, white, non-athletic-looking basketball players. He doesn't remember why he liked 11.
8. He's debating why he chose to write this list in third person, he's finding it feels really forced.
9. He will add you on Twitter... in fact he'd love to! And please sign up for the 11 Points fan page on Facebook.
10. You can contact him via e-mail. Yeah, it's an unclickable graphic. Take that, spammers.
11. It's time to stop reading this list and start reading his others. Mostly filler-free. Mostly.
