That was hilarious though. EDSBS is the only non PSU blog I read regularly.

I can tell

you always pop up in the comments. I just lurk.

EDSBS started out as a family obligation

and then became a personal addiction. You can also check out Spencer, LSUFreek, and Jacobi (Oops Pow Surprise from BHGP) at TheSportingBlog

Sorry if that was out of line, Mike, RUTS, and Kevin… feel free to strike it from the record if pimping that site is unethical.

We have no problem

with pimping the writing/animated gif’ing of those three. Brian from Mgo is over there now, too.

whoops! Sorry Brian! No disrepect intended there!

Small world

She’s pretty funny. The Digital Viking is a great series.

I knew that she was your wife's (actually I thought your) cousin

but I misinterpreted what you said. I thought you meant that the website started out as a family obligation, but I think now that you meant you reading it was a family obligation turned addiction.

that is correct, sir!

was it supposed to go in the fanshots? or is it already there?

in either case, apologies.

I hate fanshots

and wish the 2 sections were just integrated

by The JuggerNitt on Jun 18, 2009 3:13 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I understand their purpose

so they’re fine with me, it just sucks when you post something there b/c they’re buried way down the page. But like you, I don’t see the harm in combining the two.

by Screen Name 20 on Jun 18, 2009 3:25 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

not only are they buried way down the page

but then when you are in another post, only the fanposts come up, and not the fanshots. And practically everything that DOES get posted in a fanshot gets posted in the fanposts as well, and the fanpost winds up getting 90% of the comments, because that’s what people see first.

If SBN would just integrate them, and sort them by timestamp, that would be great. Another fix I would love is for the friggen Z button to scroll through comments when a video is in the main post. And my final request would be for an easy way to see what comments have new posts, without having to scroll the whole friggen page (maybe this exists, I just haven’t found it yet?)

by The JuggerNitt on Jun 18, 2009 3:30 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

oh, and possibly an anti-rec button

for people that do something anti-rec worthy, such as praise Charlie Weis’ coaching techniques. I don’t like the “flag” button, since I’m pretty sure that’s for if someone posts something like hatemail or porno (which really should get a rec, especially if it is my women’s tennis, volleyball, fencing, softball team group orgy porn)

by The JuggerNitt on Jun 18, 2009 3:32 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Oh, so you’re the guy who does the “naked softball girls” searches.

you boys should see what Bing does with that search.

In that vein...

I’d like to see who recommended a particular comment. That would be nice. And I agree about the problem with the Fanshots only showing up on the front page. That is annoying.

No big

Paterno: It sounded better when you said it at Gettysburg.

Pure brilliance. If William Sherman had ever smiled in his life, I’m sure he would be right now.

From now on, if we ever have an SEC fan talking smach on here, I’ll just remember to write “SCOREBOARD!” and walk away.

Last time there was a Civil War Argument on EDSBS

Everyone went psycho.

Well, I don’t usually read EDSBS very often, but judging from some of the threads I’ve seen, that doesn’t surprise me.

Also, WINFIELD SCOTT HANCOCK, BITCHES!!

just a thought

this past PC-riddled decade has seen the downfall of many a great mascot (e.g. the great chief illiniwek) due to perceived insulting nature to a group of people*.

would the south be offended if there was a northern mascot called “The Fightin’ Sherman’s”?

*pure bunk. BUNK, i say.

Who cares what they think about “The Fightin’ Sherman’s”?
