KingBoots8 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I look forward to you not-as-regularly scheduled programming once the season is underway. When there’s something worth writing about we know we can count on you. Thanks for doing it all these years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be, because Brandon Beane once again has orchestrated a lot of change. that's worth talking about. This is just a simple announcement that I don’t intend to write The Rockpile Review on a weekly basis for the 2022 season. I probably still will write occasional pieces under that name, but not game-by-game, as I’ve done in the past. I’m cutting back for a variety of reasons, but probably mostly because finding the time to write and finding fresh things to write about was becoming a chore. It’s easier to be creative, I’ve found, when the team is 7-9. These days, I find myself struggling every week to find a new and better way to say “WOW!!!” I expect to continue to be here regularly, writing my usual long-winded stuff. Just not every Sunday night. Go BILLS! Thank so much for your contributions! I really enjoy your post game thoughts week after week! You should just let the story build all season long and culminate your thoughts into one Epic piece after we win the SuperBowl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smuvtalker Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Thank you for all your insightful articles and for all of your hard work. I certainly appreciate all the time it takes to contribute such well thought out pieces, and will also miss your regular write-ups. That just means when you do post content, we'll all be that much more appreciative. Thank you again, and may your pen flow like the mighty Niagara when you DO take the time to bless us with your articles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergie's ire Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 It's weird, isn't it? I think OTA's are going on today and I see nothing about it. Remember when there would be like 5 quarterbacks competing for a starting job and we would have to know every rumor about every pass completed or missed even if activities were behind closed doors? The off season is much more interesting when the team sucks....but oh the games themselves are soooo much better. It's a reasonable trade off.

Can’t say that I read everything, but I always appreciated your “seasoned” point of view. Especially now that I’m sniffing at age 50 myself. Time to sit back and smell the football roses now that our garden in Orchard Park is finally growing sweet ones vs the stinkers we had grown accustomed to for the last few decades. Thanks again Shaw.

MiltonWaddams Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 It is always mightily appreciated. I enjoy and appreciate both you and @Virgil doing those recaps and look forward to reviewing them after games. I will continue to do so when you take the time to do them. Thank you!

Beast Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Someone has to pick up the pieces. I suggest @Jay_Fixit @Royale with Cheese and @teef. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaBillsJunkie Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Thanks for posting. I did enjoy your reviews, but I get the time suck of actually creating relevant thoughtful material instead of posting knee jerk reactions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
