Hello, a quick explanation for this week’s new subscribers, many of whom are here due to Bluesky blossoming into 2015-era Twitter1 :
Hey, thanks for joining! I usually post here about college football and/or religion, along with things that are neither, though there is nothing that is truly neither, because everything is both. Anyway, thanks for joining!
Each week of the CFB season, I post an ugly spreadsheet that sorts the weekend’s FBS (and select FCS) games by subjective watchability. I started doing it in like 2015, and people told me to keep doing it despite how ugly it is.
Alongside it, I usually write about something unrelated, such as novelty junk food or process theology.
This week, I want to offer all of you a little something:
If you buy a copy of my (frankly well-reviewed) book between now and December 7,
and send us a screenshot (jasonkirkbook at gmail.com) of your 11/15-12/7 receipt, along with your address,
then we’ll send you an autograph sticker that you can use to turn your copy into an author-signed copy — along with a handful of other stickers, while supplies last.
(U.S. only, please. If you live elsewhere, I will email you a PNG or something.)
We’ll get it to you in time for Christmas, so you can plan to give these copies as gifts. 😉
Don’t worry about shipping costs. Ho ho ho! (If this burdens your soul, send a dollar to charity.)
And now for the ugly spreadsheet.
I’m pretty much leaving Twitter for Bluesky. It’s already so much better. I’m here, if you’re headed over as well.
Also, tell a North Florida / South Georgia friend: Sunday, November 24 at 5 p.m. in Jacksonville, Florida, I’ll be at Hendricks Avenue Baptist Church for a free (RSVP here) event about my book and stuff. I will not care which religious status you leave with afterward. Q&A, signing, panel, etc., and then we’re going to the bar selected by Pastor B.J.
