  OOF – This preview got away from me and became longer than I had anticipated. So, pardon me for the longform here, but I think that this will make for some nice morning commute reading or pleasant I’m at work but I’m not ready to work reading. I tried uploading this earlier with my…

2019 Season Preview – The Blog & Stuff Like Dat

I told you that we’d be back. It took a while. It took my colleagues to ridicule me and berate me until I barely had a will to live. But, I come back to you a stronger, more philosophical writer. I come back to you all with a deeper understanding of what it means to…
