Good morning Greedy Pinstripes family. I want to, no I need
to, start this morning off with an apology. I haven’t been around. I haven’t
wanted to be around. I didn’t even say why, so here is my explanation and my
apology.
When we started this blog however many years ago it’s been
now I had these vast dreams and hopes of toppling the big boys in the blog
world. I wanted to be linked as a source on MLB Trade Rumors. I wanted Joel
Sherman and Sweeny Murti and the likes to know me by name. For that reason I went
hard, every single day I went hard, and while I never forced content I was a
content machine for a long, long time.
That grind began to get to me this season. When the playoffs
and offseason hit… I hit a wall. I’ve tried to work around that wall and it’s
been a constant struggle. Until recently I tried to fight it but over the last
week or so I’ve completely thrown my hands up. This time off has been good
though, I feel the batteries recharging but I still feel bad leaving you guys
and girls hanging. For that I apologize.
I can’t promise I’m back but I feel better today as I write
this than I have in about six months as far as my writing is concerned. I may
not be known, I may not be the next Chris Cotillo and although David Cone,
Michael Kay and others follow me on Twitter I may not be well known in the
blogging world but finally I know… that’s okay.
Burned out. Discouraged. Whatever adjective you want to use,
I prefer to just be over it. Finally. Thank you for your patience and your
continued support of me, the writers here, the community that has turned into a
family (as dysfunctional as we are) and the blog as a whole.
Back to work.
