To over saturate or not to over saturate?

Greetings from nowhere land sports fans!

I have been most busy. My Wasatch High School sports beat has finally come to an end. Well just about--All-State honors in soccer, softball and baseball are soon to be announced.

I have also, as some may know, been writing for a couple of blogs. One is Rant Sports. I cover the Los Angeles Dodgers as my beat team, but like to chime in on many matters on MLB and other sports.

Of course, there is the Deseret News online. They seem to enjoy having me in their loop. Now that Wasatch will be shutting its doors for the summer, we will see how much. Although they have expressed interest in my willingness to cover the Orem Owlz--the Pioneer League Rookie affiliate for the L.A. Angels.

There are a couple of others I've had a "drink" with, but see no long term relationship developing.

My point is, I apologize for not posting here in a while. I will try to improve on that. But, that does make me wonder about over saturating the market with my sports writing. Hahaha... that is a good one, right?

I recently received a bit of advice from someone in the same industry and his direction was to post every single thing I write--regardless of where it is originally published--here on my blog. Oh... and to lose the silly "In A Nutshell" name. Use my name was the advice. Search engine stuff, don't you know.

I've changed the look of my blog, along with just giving it a nice boring "Kenny Bristow" title, and will be filling it up soon with some archived material from other publications from the past couple of months. Not a lot, mind you, most of it will be dated, so what's the point of posting old news?

To recap, these are items you will be able to find here on a regular basis from now on:
Wasatch High School Sports--both from the Wave and Deseret news online.  Orem Owlz and Salt Lake Bees from the Deseret News online and possibly from the printed newspaper. Los Angeles Dodgers regular beat, along with other MLB, NFL and NCAA commentary. And of course, I will always use this forum to post any other thoughts I may have on... well, on stuff.

Not to frighten you away, I must add, there will also be a letter coming asking for contributions. Covering local sports has become a little costly due to inconsistencies in my regular work hours and just basic cut-backs. That will all be outlined in the letter.

Thanks again, fans of "In a Nut..."--oops! Kenny Bristow. I hope to keep you as friends and followers.

Talk to you later!

Kenny
