BSD Flips The Odometer


070220_odometer_medium

Sometime in the next hour or two, the BSD odometer will flip over at three million unique visits, of which I'm reasonably certain Rambler is only responsible for a third. To put this into perspective, if I had a dollar for every time someone clicked a link and landed on BSD, I would be naked right now in a pile of cash as big as my house laughing at you all for being so stupid to keep coming back here and reading this crap.

Seriously though, it's been a helluva ride since we first lit up this tube of the internet back in 2006. I was thrilled the first time we hit 100 visitors in a day. It blew my mind the first time we got 100 comments in a post. To flip three million visitors goes beyond anything I ever dreamed. So thanks to you all for making BSD what it is today. And thanks to RUTS, Kevin, Junny, FTG, Icersguy, psuwresfan, and carolinaeasy for helping out with the posts and keeping the car out of the ditch. I could never do all of this without their support.

Here's to another three million.

another thing....

…COMPLETELY unrelated. I don’t watch a lot of college hoops, but I caught the end of a spirited Purdue-Minny contest last night and our friend Hightower was officiating. During a timeout, Hightower was explaining a call rather demonstratively to Tubby Smith complete with hand gestures, hip gyrations, and lots of man-sweat. The look on Tubby Smith’s face was truly priceless. like, “Is this guy serious?”. I hope someone else saw and noticed it.

Rambler is also about to hit 25k comments

If only that 3 millionth hit was Ramber visiting to post his 25 thousandth comment, the internet would probably crash and a golden light would shine down from the heavens on Rambler’s metalic body, giving him super powers.

I present the first non-game thread post with 10 comments. It took nearly three months. There was, I swear to god, a game thread that only had nine posts. And it was Notre Dame. Yikes. I love re-reading old posts, you can get lost in the archive material for hours.

Anyway, it’s hard to believe that Mike would write for a week and see maybe a dozen comments. And now he’s the proud owner of a Rambler.

I miss the RUTS site, I actually followed you over from there to here. Now where am my supposed to get my self-loathing philly sports fan slant?

Open a window, if you're around Philly.

Just as well, I don’t get Comcast SportsNet out here in Harrisburg (boo, DTV) so I’m a bit unplugged from the scene.

Something political?

RUTS always considered me a conservative D-bag. In a nice way.

Loved his sports stuff, though.

But I like you anyway.

RUTS’s tweets are leading me to consider him a liberal D-bag…in the nicest way of course :)

I’d love to praise Zug and all that, but I’ll hail Cael instead.

And I have to thank Devon, oddly, for allowing me to occasionally take out my literary junk and whop him in the face.

And all the contributors, may you be forever blessed, and go forth and be plentiful.

Congrats, Mike.

Thanks for being the brainchild behind what has become my favorite PSU-related forum. I can only tolerate the general stupidity of most people who post on the FightOnState forums for so long, and BSD has been a breath of fresh air. This blog certainly has come a long way since I first started reading it (pre-SBNation days), and I sure hope it hasn’t come anywhere close to ‘jumping the shark.’ Keep up the fine work.

CONGRATS!

to the BSD Fam and Thank you for keeping me informed and laughing my ass off throughout the year.

With the great content and colorful cast of characters, I find myself coming back here so frequently to make sure I don’t miss anything.

This is the site I’ve been trying to find for a long time. A little props to Adam Rittenberg for linking to this site many moons ago. I never would have found it otherwise.
