Thanks for the support here on the blog. I’m gearing up for the start of the football season with some fun things right around the corner. It’s been a busy few weeks with trips to ESPN and to NYC. I’m not used to that much travel and it’s an adjustment returning to the drawing board.
I’m trying to find room in my schedule as well for more Broncos cartoons, which I love to draw. The problem is, other than the ones I do for 9News, I don’t get paid to do them anymore. My current schedule is full of projects (crazy full at times) that pay the bills. Trying to find the time and creative energy to continue to draw more Broncos cartoons is a dilemma I’ve been wrestling with for some time. I’m doing the best I can in this new life after the Rocky Mountain News. I know how some of you are disappointed and frustrated there aren’t more local Colorado cartoons here. I’m with you on that. I’d love to draw all Denver cartoons every day of the week. But I have to make a living too. I’ve toyed with some kind of pay plan for awhile. 1000 people giving anywhere from $10.00 to 25.00 a year could add up quickly. But that just doesn’t seem right to ask you all for money, especially given these tough times. So please be patient with me. I’ll find a solution somehow. But please know your readership means the world to me.
I’ll continue to do all that I can to earn it each and every day.

Athletes often believe they are above the law, above the people who pay tickets to see them. Egos are massive, often times they are pandered to at every juncture of their lives. Such is the case with Roger Clemens. Too many people have bowed to him, worshiped him and set him on a pedestal. Even his current counsel for this very serious indictment has led him to believe he is above the law. That he can say and do anything he wishes. It will be Clemens undoing. He is trapped now in a situation that I still don’t think he fully understands. He could do jail time. Serious jail time. And yet he denies and continue to deny any wrong doing. It’s hard to watch. And it draws a parallel to Custer’s tragic moment in history.

I simply had to do another back to school cartoon. It’s such a great topic. I hope you don’t mind me taking another diversion from the usual sports topic. I think this is such a universal theme that a lot of you with kids can relate.
