Goodbye
I’m going to try and keep this as direct and to the point as possible. As I’m sure many of you have already realized, the lack of activity occurring on this blog the past few months has been very discouraging. For those of you that can relate, when maintaining a blog gets to the point where it’s more of a chore, than a hobby, there really isnt much fun involved. As a result, along with a few other things I have going on, I’ve realized it’s time to put the kabbash to East Coast Mariner.
I’ve had a lot of fun since the inception of this blog. I sincerely thank everyone that checked in on a daily basis, and contributed their opinions to anything I had wrote. Your thoughts and opinions are truly what gave this blog the moderate success it had achieved. I’d be lying if I told you the epic failure the 2010 season for the Mariners has been didnt contribute to this decision, but it surely has. With that said, it’s in my blood to watch every Mariners game I can, and read any Mariners related article I can, and I will certainly continue to do so. This may be the end of East Coast Mariner, but I will continue following otherĀ sites like USS Mariner, Lookout Landing, ProballNW, Prospect Insider, and the many others that make the Mariners blogosphere the absolute best in baseball. The guys that operate and contribute to these sites are truly incredible at what they do, and I hope you guys dont take them for granted. Praise them, encourage them, and support then, they absolutely deserve every bit of it.
There’s many other things I could say, but rather than rabbling on endlessly, I’d just like to say goodbye to everyone. Thank you all for the endless support you have shown these past 8 months or so. I’ll be in touch!
Mike
From one East Coast M’s fan to another, you’ll be missed. Best of Luck!
Sorry to hear, but i totally understand. Maybe you’ll get back into it eventually?
Yeah I certainly wouldn’t rule out the possibility but it would probably have to be as a contributor to another Mariners blog. As I’m sure you’ll well aware, maintaining a respectable and credible blog is damn near a full time job and unfortunately I just don’t have the time to do so right now. I’ll be keeping an eye on all the other blogs in the Mariners blogospehere though so keep up the good work Section 331!
Best of luck mike … hopefully a return this off-season will be in order and if not I hope to see you around!
