A farewell of sorts

When I launched The Sports VU on March 9, 2008, I had no idea what to expect. My life had just been turned completely upside down, and creating this site was one of the only things that seemed to make sense.

Six months and nearly 400 posts later, I can't begin to describe how much The Sports VU has meant to me. That's why it's with some sadness, along with much excitement, that I inform you, my loyal readers, that we're moving to ConquerAndPrevail.com.

The decision to join SB Nation, a prominent network consisting of more than 100 sports bloggers, was a no-brainer. In addition to the new, fresh-looking website, we'll have the opportunity to attract an even larger audience without giving up anything. It's still going to be the same great guys bringing you the same great coverage.

The only downside? We needed a new name, although to be honest, I think this one might be better. There's nothing quite like putting my arms around my friends and swaying back and forth as we recite the alma mater, making sure to scream "Conquer and Prevail."

So while this isn't exactly a farewell, I figured it was a good opportunity to say thank you. Thank you for believing in me, for supporting me and, most importantly, for reading.
