I know some of you have asked recently whether or not this blog will continue now that the season has ended. I wondered myself, so I decided to ask.

It appears we will continue here, from now all the way through, until the season begins again next November. Quite frankly, this is something I’m very excited about.

With my many other duties — duties that will no doubt include high school and pro baseball, various golf tournaments and the occasional participation in a round of golf or rec softball game — I will no longer update multiple times a day, nor do so on a regular basis. The updates will be more sporadic, yet that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t check in every day.

For instance, this week we’ll have the top 10 most memorable moments of the 2006-07 season, per the request of a reader named Sam. Also, after Wednesday night’s dinner, I’ll post the Isabel Costa Award-winner and names of Section 1 players who were selected All-State.

As for the dinner: I hope to attend in person, but I’m not quite sure I can make it. Fortunately or unfortunately (depending on your point of view and how comfortable you feel about seeing my face on the tube), my very modest TV career began last Thursday afternoon and will continue every day this week as I film feature packages on the top five baseball teams in the LoHud.

“In case you haven’t heard, The Journal News has formed a partnership with RNN.”:http://www.nyjournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070326/NEWS02/70326030 Our reporters (including yours truly) will contribute to a two-hour nightly news show called NewsCenter NOW. The show debuted last night and I thought it was an amazing debut. Check the story I linked to above for details.

Wednesday’s journey through the Lower Hudson Valley has me headed to a practice to film one of the packages, so I’m not sure whether I will make it to Peekskill in time for the dinner. I’d like to and will do my best. Regardless, I’ll make sure I pass along the awards that will be announced that night.

Here are some other Sixth Man highlights in the offseason:
1. Top 10 for next season: At some point later this week, I will post my Top 10 for 2007-08. Start your campaigning now.
2. The Westchester/Putnam and Rockland County all-star teams. When the time comes, I’ll let you know who was chosen and how they were voted and/or selected to the team.
3. College updates: If a player commits to a college, or I receive word that someone has been offered and I think it is of interest to you, I’ll pass it along.
4. Empire State Games updates: Barring something unforeseen, like my having the day off (unlikely), this will be the first place you can hear about who was selected for the Hudson Valley ESG team. This should be an exciting year for it, considering the ESG’s are in Westchester. Obviously, I hope to see the team play when the time comes last weekend in July.
5. AAU news: If I hear of anything on the AAU front, I’ll pass it along. This one counts a lot on you, the reader, be it players or coaches, to keep me informed. The more you want me to stay on top of it, the more I will.

There will be plenty more so keep checking in. Although I will be blogging on baseball in the spring, this will always be like my first child; I will not abandon it. I hope you won’t either.
