First blog post and I’m already disappointing folks. No, this isn’t a post about Coach Lemonis adding a new RHP to the squad, sorry.
This is my official “Hi, How ya doin’?” to you, the lovely readers of Maroon & White Nation, and to the broader Mississippi State fanbase that I am so excited to engage with again. You probably don’t remember, but some time ago I was a staff contributor with For Whom the Cowbell Tolls (RIP in peace). That was a tremendous site to be a part of during some incredibly fun years to be an MSU fan, it taught me boatloads about how to respond to the comment section, what sites you people go to for your news/content, and how to share my love of the Bulldogs.
Some personal background, I was born and raised a Bulldog and graduated from the greatest university in all the land in May 2018. I was on campus for the #1 days, Dak, Jake Mangum, Brent Rooker, Victoria Vivians, Morgan William, and countless others during my time in Starkville. You’ll never mistake me as a sunshine pumper, I absolutely promise you that. What I can’t promise is that I will always be right. I am what I am, I say what I say and I may or may not take credit for it after the fact. (It’s going to be a lot harder to do this with bylines featuring my name than a Twitter account that I can make private at a moment’s notice.)
Community is going to be at the forefront of what we do here at M&WN, and that starts with our readers engaging with us in the comments and on social. Tell me how wrong and stupid I am. Please. Really, I love getting after it in the comments, all in brotherly Bulldog spirit, of course.
I am so excited about what Landon, the team, and myself have planned for the coming months, join us for the ride and maybe even click on a link or two every now and then. Oh, and I want you to put the word out that we back up. Hail State.
