Day 132

Fresh Start_132: My 2017 Manifesto
2017 Schedule
The new year is here, it’s 2017, in other words it’s go time. No more sitting around and saying it’ll happen—this is the year to make it happen. Everything that you have sat around and discussed or had just an ounce of fire behind an idea, go do it. Go absolutely 120% into that idea and watch your hard work pay off. Don’t do a New Year’s Resolution this year, make an everyday one instead. Promise yourself today aka jump street of 2017 to make this the best year of your life. Forget everything that happened in 2016, the past is the past and if you don’t want a repeat of 2016; you’ll stop dwelling about it. Give every ounce you can to the number one thing that you care about. This is the year that the world makes up for the mistake that was 2016.

As the first rendition of my daily resolution as well as the last day of the NFL for the 2016-17 regular season, I will be putting out my new schedule for 2017. The * articles are projects that I will test and see how they do over the course of a short time period. Depending on how well they do, will determine if I keep up with that specific series of article. This change in scheduling will go into place immediately and will last up until the end of college basketball season and the NBA season ending to follow. I will let you know what they schedule will be when that happens. I also will be doing bigger projects that require more research and time. I have shied away from doing those type of articles when I introduced the Fresh Start series, and I want to be do a handful of bigger projects in 2017. This is my year, no matter what. I am willing to match my words with hustle. I am so willing and so ready to walk the walk and talk the talk all year long. No one can tell me otherwise. I am laser focused, period end of story. Happy New Year, go kill it!

The 2023 Offseason is Brian Cashman's Biggest Test Yet

Image
   Now that the World Series is over five days from now the offseason begins. With that in mind, this is the biggest offseason that Brian Cashman will have in his 25-year tenure as Yankee General Manager. For the first time since 2016 the Bronx Bombers watched the postseason from their couches, and they earned that right. Amazingly, this team finished over .500, although not that far above that mark. This iteration of the Bronx Bombers finish with the same record as that 2016 team—but the feeling with this squad feels different. Following the 2016 season, there was hope of the two power bats that would usher in the “Baby Bombers,” and in that offseason, the farm system was rated in the Top 10 in all of baseball. There was almost certainty that Brian Cashman would put a championship team around Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Greg Bird, and Luis Severino that would be a title contender for years to come. There was hope. And that hope almost turned into reality. Almost. But, that was then

The Question going into the Trade Deadline for the New York Yankees

  There is a crossroads in the Bronx in between River and 161 st Street right now. As New York Yankee Manager Aaron Boone likes to put it “[the season] is right in front of them.” The second half of the season is for the taking. As we move into the dog days of summer the Bronx Bombers are nine games out of the division and now a game and a half out of the AL Wild Card race following a disappointing first series in Colorado. With that, the historic starting Tampa Bay Rays have cooled off, going 3-7 before the break while showing signs of being mortal. Baltimore, who has been keeping pace with Tampa, didn’t look like a Superpower when they split against the Yankees two series before the break. The AL East is still a Spartan Training Facility with every team above .500, the Orioles holding the first Wild Card spot, and the “struggling” Boston Red Sox tied the Yankees in the Wild Card race. And unlike Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, help is not on the way. Aaron Judge’s toe is still a m

The Answer for the Mets

  As Yogi Berra would say “it’s déjà vu all over again.” Buck Showalter is an all too familiar place. The 67-year-old manager has taken a time machine back to 2012. No, he is not managing in Baltimore anymore, however that’s what it feels like the end of Showalter’s Oriole tenure in Queens right now. The Mets simply can’t get out of their own way. With Pete Alonso likely headed to the Injured List, the Mets scored 10 runs last night in Atlanta. 10 runs on the heels of back-to-back gut-wrenching losses at the hands of the team that has foiled the Mets for the better part of almost three decades, the Atlanta Braves. 10 runs with their hired ace, Justin Verlander, who was looking to put together good starts consecutively for the first time all season. The Mets looked like they were about to exercise some demons in Atlanta last night, and then, the other shoe dropped. It wasn’t good enough. Again. Last night, I wrote that the Mets season was on the line with Verlander toeing the slab. Well
