If this blog pops off, I would argue that I’m helping grow the event’s popularity.

I saw we were doing the Bracket Busters event again this year.

I look forward to being included.

You never know how long this opportunity is going to last.

Perhaps the Bracket Busters event will be the last time I see my coworker’s beautiful faces.

I looked through all the teams.

Despite receiving the email, I didn’t make the cut.

You know, I enjoy it.

If I put out something that doesn’t work, it’s a failure.

He must have copied and pasted it from my Twitter handle.

Here’s a gold star and blue ribbon.

So fuck it, I’ll turn this into something productive.

Consider this the Mr. Rushmore of things I was doing today.

4- Exercising

3- Watching sports

Last I checked, this is still a sports media company.

If it works, it works; it’s just not my vibe, dawg.

I’m trying to mix it up.

Play to your strengths.

I’m sure the Tigers have a spring training game into which I can plug myself.

2- Working on interviews for “Chris And Company”

I’ve really enjoyed doing the show.

We recently made some tech upgrades, so I think the show’s overall quality will improve shortly.

I recently interviewed a Cy Young favorite.

It didn’t get much attention.

I know I’ll never be as popular at this company as Frank Fleming.

you’ve got the option to follow the showhere.

1- Blogging

Would I consider myself among the best bloggers on the site?

No, I would not.

When I initially went to rehab, I wrote that I felt like I sucked at my job.

I made a vow to myself that once I got clean, I would no longer feel that way.

I’m very proud of that.

Gaz asked for 35 blogs a month.

I gave him 76.

And I don’t do some 70 word, 4 video shit either.

We’re talking substance.

Yeah it’s niche, but at least it’s effort.

I wrote until my fingers bled and my veins pumped battery acid.

This isn’t hard labor.

Dave told me my role was to blog.

I’m doing my best.

Some people work in coal mines.

What can I say?

I’m a lucky guy.

Look, Bracket Busters is a great event.

It gives Jeff D. Lowe another team to root for.

Pretty soon, he’ll have a favorite team in all 50 states.

He tried to announce what he picked, but Kevin talked over it.

See, kids, I can play along, too.

I had no intention of doing this until I saw the list of teams.

But nah, dawg, this will be a one-time thing.

Im going to stay Chris.

Chris is what got me here.

Chris is who got better.

Chris will pocket this fresh batch of disrespect and save it for a later date.

Chris is the guy youd be fucking stupid to give up on.

Maybe this is my “Welcome to Barstool” moment.

Took me long enough.

The thing about being open about shit is you kind of shed any semblance of shame.

This is the ending to “8 Mile.”

I know what you will say in response before you even say it.

Here’s the thing: I got better, y’all didn’t.

you’ve got the option to’t ice out a person on fire.

So here, tell these people something they don’t know about me.

Alright, that’s about a year’s worth of frustrations, I feel much better now.

P.S.Vote me to be all All-Star on The Dozen.Let’s see if I’m barred from that.
