Hello again

Greetings. My name is David Barron, and I recently retired from 31 years of daily
journalism at the Houston Chronicle and 46 years in the newspaper business in
Houston, Dallas, Waco and Tyler.

For most of my 31 years in Houston, my duties involved writing about sports radio and television, sports business and law and Olympic sports.

My catch-all tagline for assorted items in the sports media column was Four DVRs, No Waiting, based on the fact that I really did have four DVRs around the house to record assorted programs. I still do, in fact.

Here’s a story about some of the things I’ve done over the years. https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/general/article/David-Barron-31-years-of-stories-and-friends-at-15874700.php

As you may have guessed, old habits are hard to break. While I no longer
have daily deadlines, I want to keep up with things of interest in the realm of
sports media and law. I’ll write about them here, and I’ll pull out some
memories and some statistics on occasion, too.

I hope you’ll follow me through this phase of my career at Twitter @dfbarron,
and contact me at dbarron@comcast.net with questions or suggestions. Thanks.
