No...We’re not turning this into a political blog. What we ARE doing, however, is jazzing up the look yet again and adding some talent to the roster.
Obvious bias aside, I think we have the most visually attractive sports blog going. Compare our look to anything the big newspapers are doing locally or nationally, and we bury them. Yet our internet geeks are far from satisfied, so sometime in the near future, you’re going to log on here and see a dynamic new look, design and even color scheme. I got a sneak peek last night and really liked what I saw.
The other change you’ll notice is in the number of contributors. Award-winning Lowell Sun writers David Pevear and Chaz Scoggins have been given the keys to the blog kingdom and will contribute posts from time to time. In fact, Dave has already given us a Red Sox post down below. He’s also the longest tenured Patriots beat writer in Massachusetts, so we can’t wait to see his views on here. And what can you say about Chaz? Is there a more knowledgeable baseball writer in the area? Doubt it!
Combine those two with the fine work Lynn Worthy and Gayle Simone already do, and SportsTalk will become even more of a must-see sports destination. The best part: YOU get to interact with all of us in a forum where your opinion carries just as much weight as everyone else’s. Ultimately, I’d love to see the entire Sun staff posting here, giving us the most comprehensive Pro, College and high school coverage and blog not only in the Merrimack Valley, but all of New England.
Then again, we already have that, don’t you think?
