Putting Down The Blog

Update: In addition to TBL and MLJ, I started an MMA blog - Blood, Booze and Bruises. It's awesome and you should read it and comment.


Well, as you can see, the blog has slowed down. Other venues have presented themselves over the last year that contributed to this day. I'm not saying I'll never post here again, but for now, I have other outlets for my creativity. For the immediate future, this blog will be a frame of reference for my newer work.

If you're still stopping by with your fingers crossed that you might catch some of my newest thoughts there are two not-so-new destinations where you can still read me. By now, I'm sure you're aware that I write for The Big Lead.

I post link roundups during the week as well as random stories. If you have any submissions or suggestions, send them along to alumnigonzo@gmail.com. I also cover every third weekend all by myself.

Or... You can find me at Major League Jerk where I am now contributing on a(n almost) daily basis. I'm working on MLJ with some of my best internet friends and it's a site that I've grown to enjoy a great deal. It's fairly well-written and mostly remains on the topic of sports. Please, swing by and check it out.

And finally, you can follow me on Twitter.

I'm not 100% certain whether or not I'll return to this blog, but if I don't... it was a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone who linked, read and commented. Again, if you need to contact me, my e-mail remains, alumnigonzo at gmail dot com.

Thanks again,

Stephen/CRM

Old People Give Great Advice

What's that? They didn't wear seat belts when you were allowed to drive? What do you mean music was better?

I swear it's not because I just tried to pick up Brad Johnson in one of my fantasy leagues. It's just that, this is a guy who has turned the ball over in something like 18 straight games. He drops the ball more than I (metaphorically) do.

And all because some crazy old man told him he probably could.

After saying he'd try to play, Romo's streak of 32 consecutive starts is now in the hands of Cowboys coaches and medical staff.

Really? 32 games? 2 seasons?

Fuck. You.

Who gives a shit about streaks like that? Oh, well, Ryan Leaf once started 3 straight games! He's so good! So ridiculous.

Romo isn't that good. I don't know if anyone has take the time to watch him play, but the Cowboys continually win in spite of him. (Playoffs excluded!) It could have something to do with the talented offensive line, running backs, wide receivers, tight end and... oh, those are the only positions besides quarterback?

You know how much something has to bother me to get me to blog here two days in a row? What a stupid fucking story. I know I joke, but seriously...

HE CAN'T HOLD ONTO THE BALL WITH 10 FUNCTIONING FINGERS!!!
