The idea for this blog was for it to be a fun discourse about weekly happenings in sports. I have kept it non-political as much as possible, given that overview.
This week I could have written about Lucas Giolito’s no hitter, the Yankees slide into a 7 game tailspin or at least 20 other little stories. Except that it would not be appropriate in light of the context of what transpired this week.
I had written a draft of a lengthy personal view of what has happened. It was direct and it was emotional.
Reflecting on my readership, to publish that draft would be unfair to those friends I cherish. The feelings one has on the subject run deep in many instances. I have seen this on TV, in print and on Facebook.
So I have decided to wait for the games to resume in earnest and report on what I want to and what you, my loyal readership, has come to expect. This is a sports blog and I don’t want to blur the lines between politics and sports, emotion and partisanship. I leave that for others to do.
See you next week.
