The Blog Retirement Article

Well hello there! I don’t need to tell you that the Blog has been pretty much dormant for the past year-plus. There are more than a few reasons for that, and it’s not just Covid. Yes, the season being cancelled last year took a lot of wind out of everyone’s sails, and while there is…

Let’s be honest, I’m only posting this preview because I bet someone (who doesn’t know I’m a blogger) D3Northeast’s under on The Blog posting 2.5 previews this week. Guess who’s $5 richer, this guy.

2019 FALL “HOT” TAKES: The Blog is dying

These are dark times there’s no denying. I feel like a broken record in the group chat just badgering people to fill out responses to things that barely even have to do with DIII tennis (see newCentral’s “Hot” Take). I don’t want to be that guy. Nobody wants me to be that guy. Let’s hope…
