Taking A Few Days Off

I’m taking a few days off. I’m going to Bristol, Connecticut to visit the folks at ESPN (aka the Mother Ship) on Wednesday and have a lot to do before I leave. There’s a chance I might take the whole week away from the blog here at DrewLitton.com but I’ll put some cartoons up to run while I’m gone if I decide to do that, so be sure to check back like Wednesday. I consider you all friends and I just can’t tell you how much your support means to me. Thanks too for the encouraging words on the incredible Broncos schedule app designed by Russell Houlden. Russell has done a terrific job and deserves a ton of accolades for his work!

Daily syndication, daily syndication, daily syndication!!! He might just go…. all… the… way!!!

Have a great trip to the mothership Drew!

Like Gene, I will eagerly be anticipating your return. I just got home to Denver and saw your father’s day toon hanging in my Dad’s office. Made my day, all over again.

Good luck and Godspeed!

Dear Mr. Litton,

If there is a person more deserving than you of a break from his job I can’t think of who it could be.

Who know, maybe they’ll even put you and maybe some of your work in a “This is Sportscenter” commercial. That would be a laugh riot.

Perhaps when you get back you can even draw a cartoon about your Bristol experience but for now. Just have fun.

All the bests

Louis

Today’s View From the Bull Pen

The odds aren't good. Simply put waiting for an NBA player to make a free throw is a bit like waiting for the Cubs to win the World Series. It just ain't gonna happen. At least in our lifetimes. It reminds me of one of my favorite stories. Legendary basketball coach Don Haskins, all 250 plus pounds of him, had a player who apparently thought a bit highly of himself and didn't find his deficiency at the free throw line to be that big of a deal. Haskins challenged him to a free throw contest and let the kid go first. The kid hit a couple out of 10 or so and proudly handed old man Haskins the ball. After the coach hit his 100th in a row without a miss the kid learned his lesson. Don't argue with the Bear. And learn to shoot free throws.

There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen (that I've found yet) so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.
