Running a blog isn't always as easy as it looks. It's not just a matter of sitting in mom's basement and typing stuff. Well to some it is but to others it's an effort. A writer tries to use the correct sources, give proper attribution, and write coherently. More often than not, it's done while trying to live a life because the writer isn't making much off of the blog.
Trust me, I know.
Chuck Costello, my friend of over a decade and a former WGCH colleague, went through this very issue. To that end, he has decided to continue with his Fordham SportsNet blog after considerable thought.
Good for him. He works hard on it and often gets hammered with criticism. Not much thanks, to be sure.
Many have tried this blog thing. Some gave it a good run before shutting down. Some wrote a few posts and quit. Others did a few more posts.
Some are still plugging away after almost four years.
Chuck will return August 1st.
