I’ve been crazy busy lately and this upcoming month will be nuts! I have to do a lot of traveling and need to put up some NFL team previews and fantasy football content. It will be a crunch, but it will be done for you guys.
Why will I be traveling a lot? Well, my brother needs an LVAD heart pump surgery and it has to be done down in Indianapolis (a few hours away). He will be there for a few weeks and then I’ll be over at his house a lot to help in his recovery. He still has a long way to go in the long run since he needs a heart transplant, but this should help stabilize his heart while he is put on the transplant list. If you want to donate to my brother’s heart recovery, you can find it here…or feel free to email me for his address to send him a card.
I always keep an ear out for new music. I love discovering new bands/songs, it’s a habit from my days as a music journalist. Even though this is mostly a sports blog, I still add quite a bit of music and pop culture content. Keep sending me tracks via email or Twitter.
