Signing off....

After a little less than a year, what I thought would happen has happened.

I am not as motivated as I thought I was to do this.

I made no posts related to the Western Michigan game or Buffalo game besides the Boise State commentary. That was probably a sign I needed to not do this, and it probably wasn't right to prop myself up as a "Ball State blog."

Working two full-time jobs didn't help. Being lazy didn't help either. And in all honesty, I am not that great at the "bloggy" things that are supposed to make sites like this work and generate page views (although we had plenty and plenty of those).

There were plenty of things to blog about this year's Ball State football team and I flat-out ignored them. So with that being said, I have basically decided to shut this bad boy down.

I'll leave the old posts up in case anyone gets bored, but I really don't think anyone's going to miss the site too much. And I apologize if you do.

Alan over at Over The Pylon does a phenomenal job of doing everything that makes a blog so great, so if you aren't already reading his blog (but I surmise most of you do) then consider that you're one stop-shop for all things Ball State football.

I'll be around, whether it's leaving improper comments over at OTP or arguing with Alan on Gmail Chat about the Boise State situation, or doing some things here and there for BallStateInsider.com Or if you're desperate, I am all things Clinton County sports over at The Frankfort Times. No one covers four high schools by themself quite like I do. You can also check me out on my my new entertainment blog Hit Your Demo! which will probably be nothing more than TV and movie reviews, two things I watch a lot of.

If I feel the need, I'll do a post once a year or something (haha) and hope you see it with Google mail alerts.

Take care, Cardinal fans!
