Can a Group page on Facebook be used as a blog platform?

[Small Business Man]

I love sports, very out spoken about what goes on with all my teams, the league, etc. I vent out a lot of facebook about my teams, the league, etc. A few people have told me I should think about writing a blog or something, one person said I should start a Group page on facebook and I could use that like a blog platform. Is that what's the purpose of Group pages on FB? Could I create one that focuses on Sports in general? Who would be able to read them? Only people I know? Is it possible to have people I don't know read my posts? Are people able to comment on my posts?

Or is it easier to just start a blog and If I want I could always post the link to my blog on my personal facebook page as well?

If I want ro start a Sports Blog, any suggestions on a good blog platform? Something very simple to use but attractive to readers eyes. I also would like to get my blog out there, noticed by many people, what's a good way to do that? ANY IDEAS?

Thanks Guys
