Some young punk. Name was in his email address. Info was posted on his twitter account.

I'm really done arguing this point. I'm not going to equate professional reporters with real access, disseminating real information to Timmy in Wichita posting a "story" during study hall. This thread is prime example that happens every time.

Because EVERY TIME someone quoted/linked one of their pieces it turned into a giant pissing match about how bad and disreputable they are. Add that to their writers joining the board to spam their links and it was clearly a net NEGATIVE.

Perhaps you should read the sfweekly.com story which is the more important of the two. Saying BR is respectable because of Matt Bowen is like sticking up for ISIS because their neonatal health care plan is top notch.

Actually, it is against the bleacher reports policy for writers to break their own news. What they do is leech off of others reporting and then instead of driving traffic to the original sites they take the traffic for themselves. Their motto is own the story after someone else breaks it.

Yikes, someone has been googling me. I saw this awhile back and just didn't get a chance to post... We get our picture in the Sun all the time (they own the once per week local county paper). We take all the tournament pics, so I submit them when the tournament is over. They have a slew of them... Paige has been doing really well. She plays on the top team in the club (top 11 out of 220). Their team is one of the best in the area... Very fun to watch this group of girls grow.

Don't know what the deal is... Might have to troubleshoot tonight. I can't see anything wrong at the moment.

Sorry. HUGE pet peeve here. In what logical paradigm are you allowed to change TWO (or more) plays and even suggest the outcome could possibly be the same? Everything that happens after the 1st change means EVERYTHING changes thereafter. There is no "Roby pick 6" to change. You changed every play for the rest of game..

Just like graduating from high school...

People who claim their music is better than your music << laser pointer guy << douchebags

The world needs less of this. A lot less.

Nah. Green is pretty common for presentation pointers.

Where did you see a picture of the actual laser?

Laser pointers are not to be feared from an eye damage standpoint. They are normally class 3a or below and the safety mechanism is literally blinking or turning your head. They would never approve a device for use in a conference room that could permanently damage someone's eyes. Hope the guy spends the night in jail with Bubba though...

I haven't believed in numerology in 14 years... (although I was tempted once four years ago in believing again...)

... that wasn't his arm.

Nope. Ray Lewis. He has the playbook on reputation revival. 1st step: find religion.

Money isn't the issue - I appreciate the offers, but that's not what I'm asking for. It's really just a matter of the past content being accessible or if I need to throw more hardware at the solution.

To be honest, I have not looked into these new server implementations. I assume Amazon knows how to do these things. I pay $310/month... The hardware is great, but I think we are just hitting the limit when too many requests come in at the same time. I assume RAM is the culprit here, but that's just my gut...

With over 3 million posts in the database, things are starting to creak, if not actually break down. Although I haven't officially diagnosed database size as being the reason it is slower these days, it seems to have gotten progressively worse as the seasons pass. So, that's an issue. I'm open to suggestions on how to handle this. Given that this is database size driven, I could possibly buy another license of IPB and offload a decade worth of posts, make it archive only. This will affect post counts, etc... on active board. I could just also just delete those posts. Not a big fan of that option. Or, perhaps there is a server tweak I have missed or there is something happening in the background that is causing the long page load times. Regardless, I'll need a plan of action for this season... Thoughts?

There's nothing like drawing a similarity to Jauron that kills a buzz faster...
