Bye Bye Blogger, I'm Moving.
Dear Friends:
While perusing Facebook earlier this afternoon I saw an advertisement for a new website called Bleacher Report that was looking for passionate sports fans to write articles for their website. In essence, it's sort of an online community for sports fans to come together and formulate opinions on the world of sports. I have always wanted the biggest audience possible to read my work, because I believe that I'm better than 90% of the yahoos that write sports columns for a living. Therefore, since a vast majority of my work revolves around the sports world, and because several other writers for Bleacher Report have rabid fanbases that have taken the time to read and comment on their work, it only seemed natural to me to make the obvious move there in the hope that I will obtain a larger and more passionate group of readers than I had here on Blogger. And so, I have regretfully decided to cease writing sports columns for Blogger and start writing them for Bleacher Report instead. I firmly believe it was a logical move for me to make because it has been almost a year since I went to school full time and I still do not have a job. Perhaps with a wider spectrum of sports fans on Bleacher Report, someone will be willing to pay me to write about sports for a living. I will still write in this blog occasionally when my thoughts take me outside of the athletic realm, but for the most part, this blog will now merely serve as a portfolio of my prior work and a place where interested parties can see my resume.
I invite all of you, to continue to read my work at Bleacher Report. Please go to bleacherreport.com and do a search for Dan Pieroni to access it. Thank you for three great years of your support, and I hope to see your comments on the new blog.
