Will Leitch & AJ Daulerio, the Tweedledum & Tweedledee of Gawker Media

Gawker Media has tapped Blacktable co-editors and all-around best buds Will Leitch and AJ Daulerio to helm the latest additions to its blogosphere hegemony: Oddjack, the just-launched gambling blog, which the vice-ridden Daulerio kicked off today; and a yet-unnamed soon-to-launch sports blog for Leitch (which, as anyone who has ever read the Blacktable will know, is his area of considerable mania and expertise). Daulerio’s mania is harder to quantify, but between Ted Casablancas interviews and his charming initial introductory message (“You may be familiar with some of the work I’ve done over at this nifty little place called The Black Table. If not, well, blow me”) I think it you’ll know what I mean real soon. Our best to you both, gentlemen. We hope Lady Luck is blowing on your dice right now.

Disclaimer: I’ve contributed to the Blacktable with excruciatingly personal details that now come up first in a Google search, and I know and like all the fine folks at Gawker Media. I only gamble with my heart and I’m not big on sports except for hockey, for obvious reasons.
