It was two years ago today, Catfish and I embarked into the interwebs. Paralleling our own lives, the blog has gone through ups and downs, the heavy traffic and the barren hits, the abundant content and that one week where all we posted was a YouTube clip.
Looking back at our one year anniversary, we had over 600 posts running. As of today we are just short of 900. I guess we had some trouble adjusting after our breakout rookie season. As we have said many times life demands get in the way. The popular attack sports "journalists" use against blogs is that it so easy just to type away, usually from the confines of a mother's basement. I will tell you though, it takes a certain dedication and resources both material and mental to keep a blog up and running. This place will remain a place for us to share our ideas and bounce things off the wall. So break out the cotton for our two-year anniversary and thanks for reading! All of 3 of you.

Library of Congress, Here We Come
It only took us years, but you can now follow the Amphibious Sports Duo on Twitter HERE. Since the Library of Congress has decided to archive all tweets since 2006 and beyond, we look forward to making our mark in history. In the centuries to come, as we are inevitably conquered by a race of alien beings who posses a high intelligence than we posses, we hope as they search the remnants of humanity, they come across one of our tweets about the ridiculousness of the 2010 NBA Free Agent signings. So follow us, request that we follow you, or whatever else you can do with this thing.

It's A Friday Update
What a week it has been. Catfish and I are still standing. We are still chasing that gold in the grave that is a lucrative sports career, both in our own unique way. So what better metaphor than my favorite Western standoff of all time. I would like to claim to represent Clint in this scene, but Cat is taller than me. No I am Tuco, the crafty and squat outlaw gunning for gold. Our third counterpart is the sports hemisphere, represented by the deceptive Angel Eyes. The three of us are at an epic standstill and only through progress will we shoot ourselves to glory and the precious coin.
What I am failing to say is that while Catfish and I are working hard on our real life projects, we still are committed to making this blog a reservoir for our thoughts and musings. We do not have the means to be an up to the second sports newsblogs, but hey, twitter is just a tweet away. We are here to offer our dynamic perspective on what we praise and abhor in the sporting world which we care about so deeply.
So while our compadre TBL deservedly cashed in on his hard work this week, we will continue to churn out our work little by little. Cat is mastering the airwaves, I am learning the intricacies of collegiate athletics, and this blog remains a refuge for our philosophizing. So by all means keep checking back, and subscribe so you can get our content when it comes around. Thanks for reading our good, bad, and the ugly. There are two kinds of people in the world my friend, those that have guns and those who dig. Right now we are still digging.
