It's Been Awhile

The World of KK returns after a busy summer full of travel, moving (twice) and the usual work/life routine. Not much else new going on at the moment but I am enjoying my new apartment in Roscoe Village. It's a great and old neighborhood located on Chicago's north side, just a short walk to the Paulina 'L" stop and about 1.3 miles from the friendly confines of Wrigley Field. Still plugging away for my man Harry on fantasy NASCAR but must admit, I haven't done as well as expected. I'm in 14th place overall right now, hope to crack the Top 8 by season's end. I've won two weeks which is more than I ever have but still, my goal was to win it all. Thankfully, the Pirates season ends Wednesday and that can't come soon enough. What started out as a fun and upstart team to watch turned into an old and crusty bunch of bums limping home after the break. Once again, a losing season is achieved and next year will be absolutely no different, if not worse. The rumors have already started about Andrew McCutchen being a tough sign. When/if that happens (him leaving/the Bucs making excuses as to why they didn't sign him), I'm done (well, at least I won't spend a dime to watch, attend or wear anything that will generate a dime for the Nutting regime). Frankly, I've been lied to enough and I lose more and more interest each year. I never thought I would ever say that. Until later....
