Welcome to my blog - Extra Point

By Frank Carpano

Hi everyone!

Welcome to my blog.

This has been a long time coming.

In the past I’ve blogged from the Olympics (Salt Lake City and Torino) and most recently from the 2007 Big East Basketball championship. Alot of people checked it out, so that was the motivation to find a way to do it on a permanent basis.

It’s taken a few months to make it happen, but we are finally in business.

Yes, it means more work for me. But, the time limitations of our nightly sports reports on NBC 10 makes this an excellent outlet to share all the other “stuff”.
That’s where the name comes from, “Extra Point”.

I’ve got some ideas of how we can use this to better inform you. I’ll be sharing that in blogs to come. For now I’m going to keep it simple.

One great think about the blog is that it gives you a way to communicate with me.

That means if you don’t like what I have to say (on the air or in the blog), or want to offer your opinion, you can hit the “COMMENT” button and we’re connected.

I also hope that you’ll be emailing tidbits and story ideas. We certainly haven’t cornered the market on ideas.

Thanks for reading this and let the blogging begin!
