A couple of site tidbits I wanted to make you aware of.
First, I upgraded the site this evening to Wordpress 2.3. Everything went pretty smooth…I think. If you come across funky-ness or broken stuff, please let me know. And this of course would be the reason the site was unreachable [...]

Things have been lighter for the last week on the blog. Part of that is a lack of terribly interesting news coming out of Lakeland - which is a good thing. This offseason I’ve been trying to compensate for these lulls by cranking through some analysis. That’s kind of what I’ve been [...]
