Just a quick note. Bleeding Yankee Blue has been around since September 2010. That's been a long time. During that time, we have built quite a significant fan base. We have done interviews with Yankee players, important folks and beat writers in the Yankee and baseball world, we've helped raise money for charities, and the most important part of this whole thing... we have built a fantastic audience with loyal, BYB Freaks and for that we are most certainly blessed. Jeana, Suzie, O'Hara and I thank you.
While 12 years in the mainstream is a long time, we are slowly trying to think of new ways to engage our audience. For example, we have the BYB Hub which is a secondly, sister-site to Bleeding Yankee Blue where it was the goal of myself, Section 36 and Greedy Pinstripes to help build up newer bloggers who want to break into the business. That's a free service for anyone that has a new sports blog and wants to get exposure. If you are interested in being part of that network, let me know. Here is the BYB Hub. Click on the link below:
Secondly, while we have been on Instagram for a few years now, we are now just starting to get going to make a mad attempt to be more active on it. If you are interested in finding us on Instagram, just look for us at @BLEEDNYANKEEBLU on IG. Follow us, we will definitely follow you back.
Thirdly, BYB Merch is just continually being created. In a partnership with Tee Public, Bleeding Yankee Blue is doing our best to get new, fresh, fun BYB gear out to you all. I have been working with Tee Public for a while now, but over the last few years the quality has gotten a lot better, and I've even purchased some for myself.
The plan is to continue to bring new artwork to the tees and we ask that you continue to support BYB. Most of the time, Tee Public runs a lot of sales so you can get a high-quality Tee for 14 bucks (plus shipping) many times.
Also, if you have shirt ideas, send them to me. I am happy to make anything and if you have something special in mind and you think we can sell it, I will gladly have it created, even if it's only for you!
Look, we're not perfect here at BYB, but we've been in the game for a while now. We have opinions, we shared friendships and ideas together forever and we really have become a significant force in the Yankees blog world. And so, I am happy to say that we are here and here to stay as long as we can continue to create solid content for you all.
I just wanted to say thanks for always believing in us here at BYB. You are all freaks, but you're OUR FREAKS and we appreciate it!
