Not Everything Is Okay
Do you have trouble admitting you don’t have all the answers? I’ve never proclaimed to know everything. Yet there are times like this week I feel drained. I know how to combat depression, but the other part of the problem is what is more depressing. Writing is my purpose and it has been amazing seeing…

A Chiefs Fan & Indian
Over the past 24 to 48 hours a headline has been going around. I didn’t get any of the real specifics until last night. There was a name associated with this story a Deadspin Writer.
