FanIQ Blog News: Critical Fanatic Moving On
It's Been Fun
READ MORE:
For the last 2+ years I've had the rather absurd job of attempting to entertain you each and every day through sports news, videos and anecdotes of my own personal misery as a Cubs fan. It's been a blast, but it's with a great deal of sadness and excitement that I wanted to share I'll be moving on to a new opportunity at the end of this week.

I'm certainly going to miss monitoring the sports landscape 24/7, but I also look forward to returning to being a slightly more normal sports fan. Now I'll be like a lot of you, wasting valuable company work hours searching the blogosphere for the latest player arrest and coaching debacle.

Two and half years ago, our founder Ty reached out to me to help with building this grand idea he had for a sports community. For those of you who were around at the very beginning, I'm sure you share in my amazement at how far FanIQ has come. The good news is there's still a lot to come and I look forward to watching it develop. The people at FanIQ work very hard and one thing you should know is they definitely listen to you. This is your site after all.

So while I'd love to single out all the great people I've met through this site, the last thing I want to do is make this sappy in the least. I'll still be around from time to time, so this isn't a goodbye or anything. I do plan to continue blogging on my own personal site in a few weeks and you can find that address on my profile page in due time.

It's been fun to have been a part of your procrastination for the last two years. Cheers!

Why is there a Marisa Miller picture here, you may be asking? Why not. And naturally, you'll get a few Rachel Bilson pics before my time here is done.

Good luck with your new site.  Hopefully they find a good replacement, since 100%injuryrate was a sure dud.

Thanks Jason for all you've done here. I always did enjoy coming to FanIQ when I first joined just to read your blogs, and it was never disappointing.

All I'm really surprised about this post is that you didn't have a "Best of Rachel Bilson" blog next to it.

Jason, you'll hafta be around for some Cubs drinking games.  I can't sit here in Kentucky all by myself shooting bourbon as the billy goat works his magic.....  And it's been a pleasure reading your blogs for the past 18 months.....Best of luck.

Good luck, Jason!  Thanks for all you've done for this site.  It's been a great ride, guess I need to start writing about more than just NASCAR.

Good Luck Jason! You'll be missed! I've known you since almost the very beggining, and you've done a great job advancing this site. With polls, blogs, and all your contributions. I hope I get to talk to you again, and I guess for you Go Spartans!

Haha, absolutely. One bonus of not blogging all the time will be more time to play Cubs drinking games. I'll be around.

Good Luck with your new horizons, Jason.   I remember in the beginning when there seemed to be so few members on the site, you were such a friendly, kind face and Q friend.   The site has grown so much that sometimes the first friends we made gets lost in the vastness the site has become and we lose touch.  Stay in touch and know that I wish you the best.

Thanks Helen, appreciate the note.

I do miss those days when I felt we knew everyone on the site and well, we just about did.

Jason,

Good luck with the new adventures.  It certainly won't be the same here without you! 

Sorry that you didn't get a chance to blog about the Cubs in the Series or the Spartans in the BCS.  You did get the Bears, though.  One out of three ain't bad, right?

Thanks for all you've done.  FanIQ would not be what it is today without you.

I'm sure you'll be hanging around, but know that all of your picks against the Seahawks and hockey digs will be deeply missed. ;)
You know where to find me!
