The Next Episode

You might be asking yourself right now, “Holy shit, what is this Mecca of Chicago sports I’ve stumbled upon?!?”

Well my friends, the answer is the latest coming of Second String Sports. Over the last year, 3S has evolved into several different forms and this is the next logical step.

For our loyal readers following us from the old website, we hope you enjoy the upgrades (which I will get to in a second).

For you new readers, I hope you like what you’re seeing so far. Don’t be tempted to click away from this site. Seriously. We’ll hunt you down assbag.

Also for you newbies, let me tell you a little bit about what we do here.

Second String Sports is a blog dedicated to all things Chicago (except the Chicago Sky…come on) and it’s our goal to entertain and inform you as best we can. What are our qualifications? Well, we don’t really have any, but I can promise you that we are drunk, lazy and completely obsessed with Chicago. Hopefully that’s good enough because that’s all we got.

Let me now bring your attention to a few features I’d like you to notice.

First up, the sport-specific tabs at the very top of the site. You’ll see that we’ve done a little organizing for all y’all so you can pick the content you want to read.

Next, we’ve got some new original content. For you old 3S fans, we’ve replaced our signature “K vs K” segment with something we like to call Loud Noises. Don’t worry, it’s basically just the same thing with a new name. Give it a try. Also, we’ll be introducing a running series of podcasts they we like to call Stringcasts. They’ll probably show up about once a week (most likely on Fridays) and they’ll serve as a general recap of the whole week. Word.

Finally, we here at 3S are forced proud to introduce you to our new writer Brian. Everyone say “Hi Brian!” Cool. Brian was brought on board when he responded to our craigslist post looking for a “fat, dumb idiot who likes beer and sports.” Needless to say, he fit the bill perfectly.

OK, well thanks for checking out the site. Hopefully you’ll visit many more times…if not, then we’ll see you in hell.

Seriously though, we love reader participation here so please feel free to voice your opinion. Like I said, we don’t have any special qualifications to write this blog. We’re just like you…only drunker.

Enjoy bitches. It starts today.
