damn

Beat me to my quip.

It would be interesting to see some stats on the posters with the most comments.

Not mediocre. Right about average

Here you go...

LoneStarJon has 800,000 posts.

Everyone else combined is at 200,000.

Now these aren’t “exact”, but they’re close.

I was wondering that

good to know, although I think it was ME who was the millionth. What do you have to say for yourself now!

Well good, because now Newberg says the 105.3 was wrong.

Clint Hurdle isn’t the hitting coach. Glad I didn’t post it on the right thread.

Now you can go use all your blog money to cause more divorces.

Hooray for LoneStarBall.

Thank you Adam

I’m sure we can come up with a better word than that.

It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.

This is what I want to know

Obviously the original blogs like AN and LL have, but I’d like to know where our comment # stands among the SBN blogs, particularly those that started around the same time LSB did.

LL

LSB started only a couple of months after LL and the rest of the Original Six.

AN existed for a year or two before any of them, though.

Too bad we'll never know who actually made the 1,000,000th post

Do CJ's deleted comments count toward this total?

I had a paper route when I was a kid. I was supposed to go to 2,000 houses. Or two dumpsters.

This sucks. I hate coming up on a goal, or achievement

because it takes so long to get to the next one. It’ll be a long time before it reaches 2 million.

I'm just goofin' new boot goofin'

I just started using google chrome

Adam, where to be stand in comparison to other blogs? Not just in comments, but in page views, total visits, ad revenue, ect…

Not real sure

I know that, in terms of traffic, we’re one of the top baseball blogs on SBN — in the top 5, I believe.

Not sure how we compare to other blogs. Blogging the Boys appears to have more traffic than we do, but not by a ton.

To honor this achievement,

I think Adam should post a sentimental “I love you guys” type entry. Tell us about what “this place means to him” and whatnot.
