I cannot believe we are about to enter the fourth fiscal year of thedawggs.blogspot.com. Here are some great stats:
Year 1 – 259 posts
Year 2 – 543 posts
Year 3 – 408 posts
While the number of posts was down this year, it was misleading, because our slugging average actually went up considerably during Year 3. What this means is that we actually had a higher readership and higher quality articles during Year 3, despite less posts. Also of note, we had a whopping 1,314 visits in November 2006, according to sitemeter.com, during the heart of the NFL season, the BSC controversies, and the beginning of the NBA season.
Perhaps one of the more exciting developments on BSD this year was the “Mock Draft.” First, there was the Beer Draft (
Rounds 1 and 2 and
Round 3 and
Rounds 4 and 5) and then there was the sensational Wrestling Draft (
Rounds 1 and 2 and
Rounds 3 and 4 and one possible
Survivor Series) The end-product was awesome and hopefully we’ll be able to hold additional “Mock Drafts.”
Some of my other favorite moments/articles of the past year included:
1)
Charlie Weis is fat… really fat! And Charlie Weis
is Pizza the Hut!
2) The Introduction of
the Sandwich 3) The Rage-a-Holic label/terminology, for some of MJ’s (and others) angry posts
4) Hitman’s
Rant on cyberathletes and any other mention of a reference to Mario Kart.
5) The discovery of
Captain Chaos!
The next year can only be better for the blog, for football, and for mankind!
