Hi,
It’s Clay. Today I want to make a pretty BIG announcement…
But first, I want to personally say thanks for your support of End of the Bench over the last three years. A little background for those of you unfamiliar with who we are…
This started as a pandemic idea.
Since 2020, End Of The Bench has provided readers with timely sports satire and humor, a weekly sports show on YouTube, and a unique comedic perspective on the games, athletes, and teams you know and love…for free.
Written by over 80 comedy writers.
Did you know End Of The Bench has published work from more than 80 incredible up-and-coming comedy writers? Writers whose work you’ve seen in The Onion, Rolling Stone, The New York Times (Shouts & Murmurs), Second City, Comedy Central, The Belladonna, Duffel Blog, and MANY more places.
Writers who brought you…
Businesswoman Gisele Bundchen's Husband Reportedly Quits His Job
Local Insomniac Grateful for Return of Major League BaseballÂ
So what’s the announcement? Get to the point, guy!
