Shabbat Shalom

Well the Honeymoon is over...both for me and TGR. What do I mean by that? Well, first my actually honeymoon is over. Second, TGR will be trying to do a few new things.

1) We have a new look.
2) We will start covering new Jewish stories that are not just about professional sports. For example: Jewish pickup games, JCC reviews, DVD reviews, book reviews, basically anything Jewish sports related we are going to try to tackle.
3) TGR is going to try to start advertising and getting our name out there. So if you have a website, mailing list, or are speaking to a mass amount of Jews let us know if you can help us spread the word. Big thanks to Josh Borenstein for plugging The Great Rabbino on his site. We interviewed Josh and it should be up soon.

In the future:
Today I have set up a huge interview with Nancy Lieberman of ESPN. She is a former 2 time Olympian and the greatest female Jewish basketball player ever. We are also in contact with David Meckler, a professional hockey player, and the author of The Baseball Talmud. Also, Lauren Abraham, a TGR correspondent is working on getting a live interview/promo from the voice of the Dallas Cowboys.

Poll Results:
Over the past 2 months TGR has ran into 4 athletes, which was the best:

Rowdy Roddy Piper	3 (75%)
Randy Brown	0 (0%)
Jannero Pargo	0 (0%)
Jermaine O'Neal	1 (25%)

Looks like people love Rowdy. We had lower poll results, but also the worst poll question yet.

For the next few weeks we will have 2 polls up that will help determine the TGR End of the Season Baseball Awards. Please vote in the first ever TGR 2009 All Jewish Baseball Awards.

Thank you to everyone for a great first two months. Mazel Tov to Efrem and Lauren on their wedding last night.

Shabbat Shalom,
And Let Us Say...Amen.
