First Pitch: Are the Pirates Really Changing Their Ways?
There’s a reason that I’m still here.
It’s not entirely money.
We all need to make a living in this Capitalistic hellscape, and I’m very fortunate that I’ve been able to make a living for a long time writing about sports without a boss. It’s allowed me to write in a way that I never could if I worked for anyone else. To be honest, this site gives me the chance to be the highest paid baseball writer in Pittsburgh — though I don’t care about money, so I take what I need and tend to spend the excess on more writers for the site.
I became a sports writer at age 23, and started this site at age 25. Sports — not just baseball — was a huge part of my life.
