Greetings, GGB Nation.
First off, thank you for reading and sharing your opinions on this site. I started it about 2 1/2 years ago because I believed there was a void in coverage of South Florida athletics.
Since then, I have written roughly 1,000 pieces on USF football, basketball, the new on-campus stadium, and all the other sports. I have criticized when necessary, but I'm not a flamethrower. Before that, I covered many USF sports as a writer/columnist for the late, great Tampa Tribune.
I mention this because I haven't written anything since last week nx I don't want anyone thinking we're going dark I had a serious medical condition that required surgeries on consecutive days over a four-day stay at Tampa General Hospital.
Side note: TGH is a major sponsor of USF athletics. I'm not being paid to give them a plug.
Anyway although my absence coincided with the football team's last-second loss last Thursday at East Carolina, that had nothing to do with my subsequent step-away.
I got home from the hospital a couple of hours ago and am already watching the Bulls' men's basketball team play St. Joseph's. I'll have something up on that later. I may have to take it a little easy from time to time over the next few weeks. So be it.
But I just wanted to say this was an excused absence and I have the surgical scars to prove it. I look forward to writing a lot more stories about the Bulls and I welcome your input. Just respond in the comments and we can start a dialogue.
Until then, as the Rolling Stones once sang, "On with the show, good health to you."
