I wanted to try this Blogger app for my iPhone. Figured it'd be worth seeing how it works. I don't plan to post with this app often, but perhaps when
I feel like being able to provide the audience with an instant reaction.

Hope you have a good Thursday or Friday wherever you are. Until next time!

2012 MLB Predictions

Plenty of surprises, drama and amazing moments. Will it be the 'Year of the Pitcher' like it was the last two years? Let's find out.
