The Inquisitr reports that SB Nation, a sports blog network founded by Markos Moulitsas in 2003 recently raised $8 million in venture capital funding. Markos Moulitsas is also the founder of the DailyKos political blog.

There are 200 blogs in the SB Nation network covering several sports including baseball, soccer, basketball football and hockey. The site has 3.5 million unique visitors according to data from Quantcast - see here. It is good to hear some blog networks are still getting funding even as the recession lingers.
