COSFBA Closes Up Shop

There comes a time when the effort you put into something isn't equal to the satisfaction you receive back from doing so. That time has come for me with COSFBA.

COSFBA was never meant to become anything other than a place for me to talk about fantasy baseball, mostly to myself. If you're not familiar with the history of this site, I dedicated an entire page to it called, "What is COSFBA?".

I never really put much thought into the name of this site but I honestly wish I had because getting people to notice my work was even harder with a name most never took time to remember.

I wanted to take a moment to thank all of the guest writers and contributors who shared their work on COSFBA. I'll honestly admit most were very successful but some were not. Live and learn, I guess. I promise you I won't make those same mistakes next time. That's right...next time.

I'm shutting down COSFBA to focus on creating "COSFBA 2.0" (if only the name was that easy). I know I can be successful in the fantasy baseball blogging game but I can't keep battling against a bad blog name. Oh, and the overall focus of version two will be baseball...everything and anything...with my personal focus on the fantasy side of the game I've spent the majority of my adult life obsessing over.

So this should not be considered a "goodbye" by any means. Consider it a "see you soon". And don't worry. It will be easy to recognize me. I'll be the one dominating plenty of fantasy baseball leagues in 2012 and beyond.

Peace out!

  3. Daniel,

    You have been the single most inspirational and helpful person I have met in the world of blogging, writing and promotion by far.

    I look forward to the opportunity to read your work again in the future and better yet, the possibility of working together. THAT would be cool.

    Thanks for everything Daniel. You really are one of a kind.

  6. Hey Daniel:

    I'm getting ready to re-tool Roto Think Tank as well and have actually been thinking about some collaborative projects. Drop me a line; maybe we'll talk. If not, I'm sure I'll see you in the future. I've been an "expert" since 2003 and know talent when I see it.
