So here we are sportsfans, some days into 2021 and the “New Year, New Me’’ posts are slowly starting to appear on the ol’ book of faces. I’m not going to make such a bold prediction because, let’s face it, at 40 there’s not much changing. I’m still going to be the ray of sarcastic, cynical sunshine that everyone has grown to love. Over the next year, my goal is to keep using this space to have conversations with my readers (all 20 of you) and as a torch to hold to the feet of politicians and baptist ministers throughout the coming year.
Now - While this is not a “new year, new me” message - there are some areas of my life that can be improved. And because I am quite goal-driven, a list has been compiled of things to be accomplished over the next 12 months.
