If you’ll allow me a self-indulgent post-and I know, I’ve had a lot of those lately-there are two birthdays to celebrate. First, today is my brother’s birthday. He’s old. Older than me. OLLLLLLLD. So, Happy Birthday, Bubbas. Have some cake.
Secondly, though it passed by without me noticing it, this here blog has been around for a year. When I started it, I was hoping to write some thoughts on my favorite two sports, and not sound like an idiot. I know I’ve succeeded on one of those counts. I had no idea that people would actually read, and possibly enjoy my work.
This site has given me opportunities that I never dreamed of. I’ve made wonderful friends like Jim, Billy and WEASE - now you guys can’t complain that I haven’t mentioned you! I watched one of my Tigers become an Olympian. I interviewed the Hotness-though I guess we call him Hurricane, now. I wrote about subjects I cared about, people I cared about, and discussed the merits of cauliflower ear. You helped me fight cancer. I found new homes for my writing, but always was happy to return here.
What’s next? Who knows. I know that I will have a fun announcement in the coming weeks, but no matter what, I will still be writing about wrestling and MMA.
