Around SBN: BTB's Final Preseason NCAA Hoops Bracket

A milestone reached

Hey, folks...

Just thought I'd let you know that, at some point about 45 minutes ago, LSB had its 10,000,000th page view.

Given that this is just a few days short of the 3rd anniversary of the site, I think that's pretty cool.

I will go ahead and take credit...

I will go ahead and take credit for the page few.

I would like to think my family and friends....mostly my wife for leaving me home today to do yard work in which I did a real quick half-A** job so I could come in and be the 10,000,000 view on the LSB.

If I knew...

who it was, I'd send them a deck of Rangers playing cards, or one of the miscellaneous other souvenirs from Rangers games I've gotten over the years...

I am trying to watch BT

and I can't understand what the hell is coming out of Eric Young's mouth most of the time.

Don't

mess with my boy Eric Young, he did wonders for the Rangers.

He is a bonified beast.

lol, +1

and i'm glad he's there, without him there would be NO Rangers talk on BBTN. He talked about how Josh is the player to watch in the AL West.

the truth.

Me too

He was pretty good and million times better than anyone they have now.

Peter Gammons

Him in HD right now it not very pretty.

the truth.

was just thinking the same thing.

The Texas Rangers rounded the bases at a dizzying pace

is there some sort

of site visit rankings you can do or get? I would think we would be 1st in the West in at least this catagory....

Ya....That's Real Mature.

If you look at the bottom of a page...

...you'll see a small, striped square...

That is a link to the sitemeter.

You can check that for each of the SB Nation sites...I know we are behind Athletics Nation (which is the top site on SBNation), and probably Lookout Landing, but I think we're ahead of Halo Heaven.

I think LSB is probably around 5th or so on SBNation among baseball sites...

by Adam J. Morris on Mar 30, 2008 6:14 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Okay

I checked and LSB is ahead of Lookout Landing but Athletics Nation is way ahead of both.

LSB- 10 mil.
A's Nation- 30 mil
Lookout Landing- 9.8 mil

A's Nation

has been around longer, i think

the truth.

by Longhorn on Mar 30, 2008 6:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Gah.

A 5th? Granted, that's absolutely below what he's worth talent-wise, but I was liking the reports of a 7th + spare.

Oh well. More leverage with those 1sts, assuming of course that he gets reinstated.

Masel tov, AJM

LSB 2.0 confuses and scares me.

Great!

I take this as a sign that the Rangers will win 100

OT : Wow...

You open a brand new ballpark in the Nation's Capital and your opening day pitcher is Odalis Perez. Ouch, and I thought the Rangers starting pitching was bad...

Congrats!

This site is just about everything I could ask for in a Rangers site. Thanks for all the hard work.

by rcreative on Mar 30, 2008 7:35 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I think

I account for at least 500,000 of those page views so take that total number with a grain of salt...

by Agreen07 on Mar 30, 2008 9:47 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Nice

Years ago I started mucking around on the internet (before that, I'd just check ESPN, mlb.com, etc.). I decided I needed a site that focused on my favorite team and stumbled on this through google. I think I was one of low 300s to sign up. Never quit checking this every day since. Thanks for everything.

What happened to my old signature?

Congrats, Adam (and Zywica)

You guys run a first class blog, one of the best on SB Nation, if not the best, IMO.
