Entry: Blog notes. Thursday, January 27, 2005



In the next few weeks I will make a few improvements to the site.  I've already started adding new sports links, including Football Outsiders, probably the best non-network sports website that I've ever read.  I only wish I had found out about them earlier than the end of the season; Ben Maller, who's a Fox Sports Radio weekend talk show host and columnist that does for sports what Drudge does for politics; and Sports Professor, who has a number of good posts.  I plan to add more in the future once I find some other sports blogs and link to them.

The blog will become more sports oriented.  During the fall I was only posting about the NFL and NCAA Football, and that was just on the weekend.  I'm now going to expand with commentary of basketball, boxing, MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), and I'm going to force myself to cover baseball more as well.  Hopefully checking Maller's site daily along with the general sites (ESPN, Yahoo Sports, CBS).

My goal is to have this blog totally prepared for March Madness.  Why?  Because I plan to liveblog CBS's coverage all the way through; from whistle to whistle.  I also plan to cover the ACC Tournament, CBS's Championship Weekend, and other games that I can sit down and watch on the ESPNs.  That's not set in stone, but hopefully if everything works out we'll be ready to rock in a month and a half.

That doesn't mean I'm abandoning politics.  It simply means I'm going to post a little more.  It'll take a few weeks to do this, because I've faintly kept up with both college basketball and the NBA, but I hope to get acquainted with both sports and others a little more.

Also, I want to start using Trackbacks on this site, but Blogdrive doesn't automatically come with it.  If anyone can give me a hand with getting that started, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Once again, thanks to all that emailed requests to hear the Tsunami Song and the argument prior to the airing of the song and thanks for visiting the site.  I hope the ones that were first-time visitors liked it, and will return daily.  As far as I've heard, no new news has come out in regards to Hot 97, but there is definitely pressure on them to fire that morning show crew.  I had 12 new requests waiting in my email inbox this afternoon, so the total is 36 so far.  If you want to hear it, just email me and I'll get it to you.
