The Hundredth Post

It seems all too long ago that this blog was created. A boy genius, fresh off of numerous fantasy championships, decided to chronicle the world of sports. Here we are, one hundred posts later, celebrating the history of the world's premier fantasy sports analyst. Sit in your most comfortable chair, consume a beverage or two, and enjoy a recap of the guru's brightest moments.

It took a decent bit of time for people to start appreciating the guru's fine work. The inaugural posts received only a handful of views, but before long, the blog became a hit. The viewer explosion coincided with the publishing of an article regarding Alex Ovechkin's attempt to fight Steve Downie. At the time, it was one of the hottest topics in sports, as self-proclaimed experts from around the world emerged from their quarters of incompetence to give their two cents on the matter. Fortunately for society, the guru was there to offer an accurate representation of the event.

A few posts after the Ovechkin-Downie Incident, the guru took a short absence. Blog followers' spirits were crushed. People around the globe were left uninformed. Mayhem quickly ensued. As an apology for the unintended posting hiatus, the guru composed a song for blog viewers. It is a parody of Taylor Swift's "Love Story," and is definitely worth a click.

Let's face it, NBC is a horrible partner for the NHL and the great sport of hockey in general. After sitting through far too many poorly broadcasted games, the guru decided to take action. In a series of three posts, blog followers were made clear of the network's ineptitude. The first post can be found here. Shortly after, the second article in the series was published, sparking an interesting debate in the comments section. It wasn't long until NBC proved once again why they are the epitome of journalistic incompetence. Of course, the guru was there to set things straight.

After reading a handful of serious posts, you may be looking for a laugh. I encourage you to browse the Image of the Week posts, particularly the ones here and here. Certain ones are quite comical and a great way to spend time during a break from your homework. As always, if you see a story that you find interesting, let the guru know. Send him an email at FANTASYguru37@gmail.com and you may be lucky enough to see him opine on the subject.

As much as the guru likes to have fun, he understands that this blog is a serious matter. He performed in-depth research on the subject of labor disputes in pro sports, writing one of the Internet's most thought-provoking works on the topic. If by chance you find yourself on Google, search the phrase "effects of lockouts." You can even remove the quotation marks, and you will find the guru atop the rankings. People all across the world are reading what the guru has to say about lockouts and strikes. Shouldn't you?

Again, the labor dispute post is a very sobering topic. Those of you looking for something more light-hearted should take a look at the By the Numbers series. They offer an entertaining format for followers to quickly catch up on sports news, while providing interesting statistics and plenty of comical content.

This recap of the blog's best moments would not be complete if it did not contain any discussion of the Triple Option Podcast. From time to time, the guru publishes articles written by fellow experts. Occasionally, the group gets together to discuss hot topics in the world of sports. Of course, they record their musings and the ensuing beauty is posted on the Internet for all to hear. For a link to the inaugural podcast, click here.

As you can see, the guru has enjoyed a long and successful blogging career. It is his deepest wish that you enjoyed the one hundredth post and return to the blog to be enlightened again. The posts mentioned above are just highlights of the many great articles published on this blog. To view any post at any time, browse the archives on the right-hand side. The articles are divided by year and month, allowing viewers to return to the past and relive the greatest moments in the history of Fantasy Guru 37.
