Who is your source?

  Good afternoon blog readers. I hope all is well with you today. After starting this blog on Jan. 2 and doing good the first two days, I have not posted in almost two weeks and I apologize. Today’s blog title is “Who is your source?” As a member of the media, there are many stories that we read or post that say: according to sources. Just today, news broke on ESPN about Doug Nussmeier coming to Alabama as their new offensive coordinator. Here is the link to the story and notice the headline (Source: Doug Nussmeier to Alabama): http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/7467571/alabama-crimson-tide-hires-doug-nussmeier-run-offense According to dictionary.com   (a source) the word source can be: 1. any thing or place from which  something comes, arises, or is obtained; origin: Which foods are sources of calcium? 2. the beginning or place of origin of a stream or river. 3. a book, statement, person, etc., supplying information. 4. the person or business making interest ...

It is all about the name

Good morning! Welcome to day two and post two of The Robinson Report blog. I hope you all are doing well on this cold Tuesday morning. Well, it is back to work today for the first work day of the new year of 2012. I always joke with my wife Shari, who is a school teacher here in Brewton with the Brewton City School systems as she teaches Kindergarten.

And I will kid her back with something like "well, if you would not take such a long break, it would not be so bad"! Ha! She knows I love her and am just messing with you.

Happy New Year 2012

Hello all! Today is the second day of 2012 and I hope the new year so far has been a great one for you and yours and I hope this year will be one of the best ever for you. I had been contemplating doing this for a while now and today while I had a little time on my hand watching some football games, I decided to bite the bullet. With my job as a sports editor at the local newspaper here in Brewton, The Brewton Standard, I already do a lot of writing covering games and I have a sports blog on our website-www.brewtonstandard.com. But I plan on updating and writing a blog on here as often as time allows. I just wanted to start out the first blog by saying hello and until we meet again here elsewhere, have a great day and God bless!
