Hellllllooooo! It has been nearly 6 months since I last posted. Let's get that out of the way since I know that is a new record. I hope this finds you all well and relishing the approaching football season. All is just fine in my world with a 5.5 year old that is obsessed with
playing and watching any and every sport (currently completely into
baseball), and a 2.5 year old that is tyrannical and also somehow
completely adorable, as most are.
Okay, cold hard truth time, my friends: my heart hasn't been in this blog for awhile now. Surprised? Didn't think so. But the thing is, I can't quite seem to completely walk away and call it done. I have loved this blog, it has brought me so much enjoyment, made enough money to cover an extensive coffee habit, and I've met some incredible people. And learned a hell of a lot about fantasy football along the way.
So here we are at the precipice of another fantasy football season and I feel the itch to blog again - but as you have probably figured out, my energy and enthusiasm for it seems to wane as the season continues. I don't want to let you all down mid-season so here's what I need to know from you - even if I just post once a week, is that still valuable for you all? Should I keep this train going? Or call it quits?
Mull that over while you read some post-NFL draft links and previews of the season:

I have always appreciated your blog...just wanted to add that :-)
Whatever you can do is greatly appreciated! I remember when my kids were young, they take all your time. At some point down the road they will be think it is cool for Mom to know so much about fantasy football and they will encourage you. Your Blog has helped me win championships and my son to think I am a great Fantasy Coach.
I love the Team Defense post that I think you put up there from a contributing source? Regardless - keep up the good work and if you need help just reach out to your community.
