What a Time to Quit

By: Tom | October 20th, 2007

My timing here is highly contrary, a day before the biggest game of the season, but I’m writing to announce I won’t be blogging here any more. Now I’m actually writing my doctoral dissertation and teaching at the same time, I have to limit my time for writing on soccer, and that means giving priority elsewhere, I’m afraid.

It’s been a fun year blogging here on the Fire: thanks to the great Offside community run by Bob, and all you great fellow Offside bloggers and commenters. Whoever takes over this space will find me stopping by often enough.

If you have some strange desire to read my ramblings on soccer outside of this space, I still update my own blog, pitchinvasion.net, regularly. I also write in a somewhat proper fashion for the newspaper Chicago Sports Weekly, covering football in the Chicago area — that includes the Fire, of course.

Let’s hope the Fire see me off with a playoff-clinching result tomorrow.

  And now the million-dollar question: Has your quest to learn to love MLS been successful, oh fellow recovering Eurosnob?
