It's Been Fun

Today is this blog's third anniversary, and so it seems appropriate to announce that I won't be posting new content anymore.  I started this blog when I was unemployed and had little else to do than bitch spend hours analyzing my favorite baseball team. It was a lot of fun, and I got the opportunity to discuss the team and the sport I love with some pretty awesome fans I probably would not have met otherwise.  However, I no longer have the time to really put much effort into my posts, and frankly I haven't been very happy with the quality of work I've produced as of late.

Moreover, blogging just isn't much fun for me anymore.  It feels more like a job that I don't get paid for, and I think my work has begun to reflect that.  The internet is littered with bad blogs; I don't want this one to be one of them.  When your posts are all basically "I don't have time to cover this, but here is my lazily researched, snarky commentary", then  it is time to hang it up.

I will leave the blog up for, well, as long as I feel like leaving it up.  Maybe someday I will have both the time and the inclination to write again, and I will be back.  But for now, this is pretty much it.  Also, I am going to turn off the comments in a week.  As much as I enjoy interacting with readers, I don't have time to moderate comments and I don't want spammers hijacking the comments section.
