Taking a necessary time-out, back soon
Friends, I need to step away for a little while. This is a busy time in the sports calendar, but I’m sure you would agree that family matters trump all. Take care of things until I return and, as always, thanks for your readership. Jeff.

Schultzie, Godspeed, friend.
Shug, you’re a pathetic individual. MoneyTalks, ditto. Sleeze, your blog handle is the most appropriate one of them all.

Lord Jesus I pray that you would place your mighty hand on Jeff and his family. I pray that you would heal, comfort, protect, and reveal yourself to them in a very special way. For its in your name I pray, amen.

Family indeed trumps all…Don’t worry, Jeff, Don Waddell will still be employed by the abomination known as the ASG when you return…No matter how he continuously mucks things up, he’ll still be employed by the worst organization in the NHL…

Hope you and your family get better soon. Doesnt matter how long you take, as long as you’re able to make it back.
Your work is great; your sense of humor and your sarcasm give me plenty of chuckles at work when i read your blogs. Your columns are definitely missed.
Take care.

Take your time getting back, hotshot. There’s way plenty, and then some, on the left to keep your spot warm. I’ll pray for you, too. After all, the Bible insructs us to pray for our enemies. If you really are getting that long-needed brain transplant, I sincerely hope this one isn’t defective too.

Hey Jeff,
Been away for awhile and sorry to see you’re gone. Best wishes to the entire Schultz family. We miss you and are sending positive thoughts your way! Glad to know you have your priorities straight. As much as some of us complain, rest assured we’ll be here waiting for you when you get back! Take care!

Jeff rips others when they are having personal problems and takes shots at those who do not think like him. I wish him the best with his family life but he needs to learn to reciprocate these thoughts and well wishes.
