The End is the Beginning is the End

So it's been 364 days since I've started this blog and there have been some very good chats that we've had over the time. I'm really surprised that it lasted this long because of how lazy I am but I'm pretty proud of how much I've written. We had some good discussions along the way that were a lot of fun and I've enjoyed hearing everyone's oppinion. I also like being right about A-rod, even with what's going on now with him, he he.

But, with all good things, they must come to an end. I am sad to say that I will be ending this blog for the time being. It's not that I don't want to write it it's just that I find myself with less and less time and instead of this blog being something fun that I enjoy writing in I find it more of a chore that I'm trying to fit into my life. I don't really think this would be fair to it so that is why I am ending it. It was a fun time chatting with everyone about our lives, most about sports, and reading what you guys think and making fun of each other. When I first started this my job was boring and I had internet access at my desk. When I changed jobs I had an hour long lunch that still enabled me to write as much as I was before. But, unfortunately things changed and I only had a half hour lunch which surprisingly kept me away from writing at work, which seemed to lower my production in writing over the past few months.

Now, I'm not saying that the blog is over for good because, well I am looking for a new job but I'm also applying for another position at work that may allow me to have more time to write more here and put better effort into this here blog. And believe me, if that day comes along I will definitely let everyone know. So, until then I guess we will have to catch up via other means, like the phone or more likely, facebook, ha ha. I do have some good ideas for things that I would like to write about but I will wait until the time that I start writing again.

Yup, here we go

So, I guess we were all wrong about the Super Bowl. It definitely started out as a crap fest and it seemed that the Steelers were going to run away with it but then the Cardinals turned it around and made it seem like they could pull it off. I was really hoping that the Cardinals would have won and it would have been amazing but whatever. The ending was very similar to the Giants win only I was happy that the Giants won, ha ha. I still think Larry Fitzgerald should have been the mvp but oh well.

Well, I'm happy that the Mets were able to sign Oliver Perez. I was a little worried about what was going to happen but they finally put everything together. I do like our starting rotation of Santana, Maine, Pelfrey, Perez and whoever gets the fifth spot. I wonder if the Mets will go after Ben Sheets? Can't hurt, could it? I definitely wouldn't give him a 4 year deal like we did for Pedro but a 2 year deal wouldn't be bad. I thought I read on espn that the Mets had expressed interest in Abreau, which wouldn't be a bad signing. It would be a pretty good lineup of Reyes, Abreau, Beltran, Wright, Delgado, Church/Tatis, Castillo, Schneidder, Pitcher. I'd be pretty happy with that line up and that could put us as the favorite to win the NL East. We'll see what happens.
