The Name of This Blog


   This will be the initial post of my second blog. The name of my first, Blood, Sweat, and Pig's Ears, came after some considerable thought, prompted by my own unspoken question; What's a unique blog title? Of course, that blog was about home renovating, or more specifically, my approach or take on renovating, so that was top of mind as I was considering something that might be a distinct enough name that no one else would already have staked a claim.
    BSAPE has become a big part of my life since I first clicked on Publish back in October 2011. In a roundabout way, blogging has been lifealtering for me. Still, I don't blog every day and sometimes I've gone long stretches without even opening my online baby; Blood, Sweat, and Pig's Ears, out on its own in cyberspace. 
    Somewhere along the line I read some advice about staying on topic while blogging. And I'll say, for the most part, I've held to within those margins. Yet there have been times when I've stretched really hard to tie current events or something personally which I wanted to write on to the subject matter of home renovating. 
    On one the introductory blogger pages, there is a list of my pages. And for years, it has been a one blog list. Yet today I was thinking, I should start another blog, just a place to share an occasional thought on something other than about buying and rehabbing old, forgotten homes, perhaps some post that starts off with: IMO or In my opinion...
    For some reason, this thinking migrated to In My Onion. And, comparably to how some people blurt out, That would be a great name for a band, I'm more likely to think, as I did today, That could be the name of a blog.
    I did a quick on-line search and found this title just a few places (Urban Dictionary), and it was like a sign from the Lord or universe saying, "Start a second blog, dude."
    In conclusion... and in my opinion, In My Onion is a good name for a blog. :)

The Big Ten is the Best Candidate for Open League Play

By Trent Fasnacht     In my opinion, the Big Ten Conference is the best positioned for open league play where teams are promoted and relegated at the end of each season.      The main characteristic that makes the Big Ten ideally positioned for an open league arrangement pertains to branding.  Despite the fact that the conference has had more than ten member schools since 1990, the number ten is still integral to the conference's stellar name. Instead of being an eccentric anomaly, in my envisioned restructuring, the number ten would have noteworthy significance that the league could build and grow around, and even more importantly, profit from.        The conference added the Pac 12's  University of Southern California and UCLA last June and then just brought in Oregon and Washington last week. My suggestion would work with a Big Ten of eighteen, but would be built for the addition of ACC defectors like Clemson, Florida State, and even others.     I'd start the reimaging o

It's Time for the NFL to Realign

    The good citizens of these United States struggle mightily with the subject of geography, and for decades, unscientific speculation has just about proven that the NFL is at the root of this deficiency.  U.S. Students Are Terrible at Geography (usnews.com)       No one seems to know for sure when this decline began, but more than a few non-scholars have pinpointed Tampa Bay's placement in the NFC Central as the beginning of this downward slide into geographic ineptitude in the classroom.      "Something must be done!" a hallucinated source exclaimed before adding, "For the children!" The source declined to confirm if they were a mother or father, earthling or ET, but their passion regarding this subject matter was undeniable. They ran away in tears.     Florida is on the southeast coast, but the Buccaneers were put in the Northernmost division... with the cold weather teams —Minnesota, Chicago, Detroit, and Green Bay—Brrr. In 1977, it was called the NFC Centr
