Excuse Kosmo for not being too motivated to get out of his cave right now. Don't worry, there isn't a depression setting in, but your seer does admit to feeling a bit weary right now.
The reason is that this isn't a time of year the K-Man looks forward to, mainly because the Dog Days of not only winter, but the winter high school sports season, are here.
The excitement of a new season has worn off and we're about halfway through the year. There still is a month or so to go before the playoffs, so it just seems like everything is stuck in a rut right now.
Oh, this week will bring some excitement though. The county's best basketball rivalry resumes on Tuesday when Clarkston visits Pontiac. There will also be some important league games this week, particularly for the boys in the OAA White.
Unfortunately, it still seems like survival right now for the K-Man. Hopefully the next month goes by quick and then the excitement of the upcoming playoffs will end the winter dog days.
