If you’d like to subscribe to the weekly newsletter please use the subscription widget on the right sidebar of the main page.

My plan is to send the newsletter out weekly, and it will contain a mix of the “best of” articles and some of the more “information” type posts.  There will also be new stuff mixed in and it will come to you via email, and it’s free of course.

The website itself won’t change at all, this is just another way for you to follow along.  If you are a daily subscriber in Google Reader or all-posts via daily email nothing changes in your world.

If you’re a fellow blogger and feel you have a strong post you’d like included (let’s all admit it, some posts are better than others) hit me up at [email protected]

Thanks for subscribing, and expect Issue #0 shortly.

But the charity thing, that hit me early on . . . especially with this cause, with CHKD, the children’s hospital down here. I always read about, heard about stories growing up, whether it be through friends or reading in the paper about kids that had these minor miracles at CHKD. I was always fascinated by this hospital.

“I got to the point where I was drafted. Didn’t necessarily have the means to put on events like this. I went and visited kids. They got a kick out of a Mets player coming to visit them. I gained some relationships with some of the kids, that I still keep in touch with some of them today. And once I able to kind of do events like this, then it was no-brainer, that’s kind of what I wanted to focus on.”

It’s always good to be able to post stuff like this, especially here in The Winter of Negativity.

David is special and will be a Mets player for life. Ignore those who say otherwise.
