So the other day it occurred to me. I will shortly be out of a job--my choice--without any realistic new opportunities. So I will be spending my summer, cheaply, filling out job applications, and as always keeping tabs on my Green Bay Packers.
And just like that I had an idea...a football blog, all Packers, all the time. TADA! Isn't this a great idea? I mean, who knows, maybe I could be one of those awesome "blogger." Maybe ESPN or the NFL will find my blog and realize how great I am and pay me to stalk...I mean research my team! (To be clear, I don't have the funds to actually stalk the Packers, I would merely give my opinion on all the information I can attain from an hour and a half away from the team facility).
So there's a thought. And maybe in unemployment, with the impending excitement of the playing season right around the corner, I might be able to be a consistent blogger. My biggest problem--I'm not a strong writer (hence the lack of any writing intensive classes while in college--and my complete excitement when I passed the Advanced Placement test for English in High School). So I definitely don't promise a very good blog. I write as I speak, so it'll be hard for you if you don't know me, to always understand me--my life heavily depends on tone and sarcasm and the voices in my head (they're nice).
So feel free to let me know how you feel about this. Keep in mind that I probably won't actually take your feelings into account and write whatever I want--that's the point of a blog. Also remember that Clay Matthews is my guy. Thus much of my opinions & analysis will likely revolve around him. However I have an attachment to all my guys--which makes this time of year so hard. And this year the team will have to cut down from 90 to 53 guys on the roster (very uncool, I'm going to start liking almost 90 guys, and then they'll take like 40 of them away=not cool).
Of course I will throw in bits and pieces from my life...for instance, I went to Germany to see Maik & Claudia get married in April...I should really blog about that--and I probably will...but first I have to finish this school year before--it's more likely I'll get it done without being sleep deprived.
There you have it. My future plans in a nutshell...because I have so few plans and zero prospects that they can fit in a nutshell (and still have room).
