It's official: Best is scared
I'm just sitting here trying to do my job and write a few blog posts, when all of a sudden a reader tips me off to the fact that Best has written a post announcing that he is 28,000 page views ahead of me for the month of February. Now, I'm not sure if this might seem like a lot or a little to you. But given the fact that Best had previously sent me an e-mail about this situation, it leads me to believe that he is getting a little nervous about this situation.
He even mentions that if I do beat him, then he can simply blame it on the fact that there is an extra day in February this year.
"If he passes me on Feb. 29 thanks to NFL free agency stuff," he writes, "it does not count, as my contract clearly states "28 days hath February."
Memo to Best: I'm over you, dude. You can have the page views title every month, for all I care. I choose not to live my life in the basement in my pajamas, but rather to get out and mix with real life athletes, general managers and the other folks I deal with on a day-to-day basis.
Besides, when the day comes when I do beat you in the page views, just remember this: I have promised to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge alongside WFAN's Craig Carton wearing a Speedo.
Come to think of it, you seem to get along with Carton. You might want to tell him of my blog promise here and get him ready.
In the meantime, Best, let me know if there are any cool discounts with the AARP card you just got.
