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.

Congrats to the commenters here for being a talkative, argumentative bunch of ~~folks~~

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.

How many other SBN blogs have reached million?

by octoberty on Nov 3, 2009 5:28 PM CST reply actions

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.
