Just found out that I’m being let go from @TheAthleticFS as a freelance writer. It’s been a fun ride. Awesome experience and forever grateful to @nandodifino for the opportunity to write for a site I always aspired to write for when I started out Without Nando and The Athletic…

@FAmmiranteTFJ @TheAthleticFS @nandodifino Appreciate it, Frank. I am not even a little mad. Might just take it as a chance to step back and coast and focus on being a better player.

@DMendy02 @TheAthleticFS @nandodifino I’m not worried. It was fun and awesome to get to work for the bucket list place. It’s all good and no hard feelings towards them. Nando and company are fantastic people

And just like that I become victim to the very same regression monster I created. First victim of 2024 😂

@Jeff_Erickson @TheAthleticFS @nandodifino It’s all good, Jeff. The lineup stuff vaulted me to that point and I’m sure it can get me further if I keep with it. I’m not sad. It was a great opportunity and I checked off my bucketlist goal in the process. I’m grateful and a lot of good came from it
