So long and thanks for all the fish

Dear Friends,
For over two and half years now I have had the pleasure to write at least one column a week for the BSD. That's certainly more effort that I think most columnists do at their papers. There have been high points: UNC winning a championship, Carthon being fired, threat down lists and more. There have also been lowlights: picking the Dolphins in the playoffs, watching the Badgers play basketball, all things Florida, etc. Along the way this site has gone from a lonely outpost to one thriving with debate, one that has search engine for its copious archives and one that has not gotten me sued. However as any good writer knows, new experiences are needed to fuel the fires of creativity. As such I will be taking a sabbatical from my desk here in America and spreading my wings in Europe for the next 4 to 5 months. I will occasionally be writing a bit called "Notes from the Periphery" for the blog but otherwise I'll be taking a well deserved break. Thank you all for making this blog a refuge for the damned I mean Sports Fan.

Cheers

Mighty Mike
