Velazquez on leave, back in two weeks

Quote
I don't know about you, but I expect Christmas will be coming early for my family and me.
 
My wife and I are expecting our second child and the arrival will be any day now. We don't know the gender, so feel free to get a pool going.
 
The upcoming bundle of joy means that I'm going to be on leave from work for two weeks starting today. I won't be writing during that time or tweeting (much). There is a coverage plan in place, so make sure to stick with JSOnline for Marquette news while I'm away.
 
I'll be back on Dec. 28 for Marquette's game against Morgan State. I plan on watching and/or DVRing the games I'm missing so I can hit the ground running when I return. I'm sure I can also look forward to a few tweets and emails to keep me in the loop.
 
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all of you. No matter what or how you celebrate, please be safe and enjoy the time you get to spend with your loved ones.
 
That's certainly what I'll be doing.

I cannot help but be disappointed in this decision. Life is about choices and Velazquez has put himself before all others. Good men are being left behind.

Hmm .. We R Final Four .. has a very specific email address that would indicate he's not the JS's Velazquez.    

Oh noes, maybe he's in the witness relocation program.

I figured We R was just quoting a blurb in from the JS, or twitter (although too many characters for that).

I assumed mattyv1908 was Velazquez

1908 is not Velazquez.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

Wishing and praying for the best, Matt.

BTW, if you take all of Mike Hunt's articles and filtered them for unique content, they still wouldn't reach the length of this article by Matt.

I know (I think?) everybody is just having fun with the suggestions that Matt buy his new baby a Marquette outfit or that he name him/her after our heroes, but I'll say this anyway:

I would be quite disappointed in him if he did anything close to any of that. He is a journalist -- and, it seems, a good one -- not a fan.

I love the coverage we're getting from Matt. We need it to continue. What we don't need is another cheerleader.

Ha--No, I am not Matt.  I am just a guy who copy and pasted.
