This blog and the people that make it up have provided a little digital slice of happy valley. It has been a great way to go through the excellent year that has been PSU athletics. It made adjusting to the west coast and the 9 am kickoffs much easier to handle.

Now perhaps my productivity at work can rebound as I might be able to cut back on the BSD checks to twice a day.

It’s been absolutely great to see everybody fully invested in basketball season and all of the other stuff we’ve been covering here. If you look at our sitemeter, it’s pretty amazing that there hasn’t been much of a dropoff after football season. That’s a tribute to everyone who visits, because we’ve been able to sustain the traffic without any link-whoring from sites like Deadspin and other such internet giants, and only an occasional link from EDSBS. It’s all of you, coming back again and again, who make this site run. So thank you.

I shudder to think how many open threads per game we’ll need during football season. We may have to pre-schedule them to appear every half hour.

No Heart! However, you stated that very eloquently. Even Tim Curley would be proud of you for your sentiment.

I am a relatively newby to BSD. Not around until Rose Bowl time. My first “big” event was NLOI signing day this year. I ’m now really hooked. Great job BSD!

Thanks Fugi for recognizing the great work at BSD.

Or maybe they are the same thing now, I’m not sure. As a guy who was shouting into a blogspot with very little feedback for an entire season (and all of us were there at one point or another) I think I speak for the three of us when I say it’s the back and forth that makes this fun and keeps us interested in writing. You might have noticed I follow the trends in the newspaper industry with interest, and as much as I rag on bad journalism and talk about their failures, it’s a lack of a community like BSD that is leading to their downfall as much as anything else. Talking about what is going on is a lot more fun then being told the news and not being able to react.

So like RUTS said, thank you all.

We should hug – “as grown men do”…

of course, this is a blog… so where is the icon or buttons on this keyboard to show the love??? ’prolly the " gay brackets " { }…

I am a relatively new comer as well….a buddy at work didn’t turn me on to this site until mid football season but nI have been hooked ever since. It was a perfect storm this year: BTN broadcasting games, the team being good and the people here talking about the game that made me a huge b-ball fan this year and for that I thank you all.

Just one sort of complaint/suggestion….as someone who checks the site from both home and work, and always logged in at both, is there anyway that the site won’t say 102 new comments when I log on at home and know that I read 93 of them at work?

forces and saving me the trouble of reading all three of your blogs. I probably don’t get any more work done now, but I can settle into to less browsers.

the time by at work…illegally. But it does pass. When i’m sitting there chuckling at some funny comment…coworkers stare. I just reply, “it’s a penn state thing”.

Thanks for keeping me posted on all things Penn State sports. It is the only thing that helps me through the work day and I’ve got a network of friends at expect me to keep them in the loop because of BSD!

I’ve been offline through this awesome b-ball finish (because I gave birth to my son, Brian Matthew on March 4th), but rest assured we’ve been cheering on our Nittany Lions through it all!! (He loved the last second ’Nova drive to beat Pitt!). Looking forward to Spring Practice and the ’09 Football season.

GO STATE!

PS: The Nittany Lions need just one more league win to clinch their 25th Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association regular-season title and secure home-court advantage throughout the EIVA playoffs, including the semifinals and Championship, slated for April 30 and May 2.

all of you men for calling us BSDivas hot. It’s been a great ego boost, especially on those sucky days. Thanks guys! blows kisses

A hearty here-here to BSD and all its bluandwhiteness, living roughly @ the half-way pt between pittsburgh and morgantown leaves little oppurtunity to dicuss PSU and the discovery of this site has given me an outlet to discuss, post, and more often than not sit back and soak it all in
