By the time this goes up on the site, I’ll be somewhere en route to California to the Bioneers conference in San Rafael. The coffee company my wife’s family owns and operates needed a few extra bodies to man their trio of locations at the event, and so I was conscripted for active duty. It’s funny to think, living as relatively close as I do, but this will be the first time that I will have given northern California more than a... Read More

It has been a long, strange trip writing this column over the past two years. What began as a humble request to write a weekly post in a now-defunct group of the SI-affiliated fan site FanNation found itself moving along with me when I became the managing editor of Informative Sports.
