I may not have posted since yesterday afternoon, but this morning was a busy one for the Bear Blog.

Just as I am introducing myself to the fans this week as the eye within the athletic department on your behalf, so too must I be introduced to the department as a whole.

This morning I presented the concept of the Bear Blog to about 40 of Cal's coaches and fielded their questions regarding this new element of CalBears.com. Thankfully, these coaches were receptive to the blog's mission and are as excited as I am about the new exposure it will provide for all of the varsity sports here in Berkeley.

So why am I telling you this? Because this was a big step toward bringing fans the all-access look at the Bears that has become my personal mission.

And without making any direct promises, stay tuned for the rest of the day and week regarding other opportunities for you to contribute to the launch of the Bear Blog. Don't worry, you will be compensated for your efforts.
