Whew... 6:00 came fast after bumming around at the station till 12:30 last night, but Deadline Day's always fun. Sure didn't feel worth it until about 10:00ish when a whole slew of trades were announced, and a lot of them involved one, or two of our local clubs.
I've got a feeling you fans are interested in deadline days? The blog averages 300 or 400 hits, maybe 500 on a good day, and we broke 1,000 for the first time December 1st, and broke that record yesterday with just shy of 1,200. Appreciate the readership... with #'s like that I won't quit the blogging thing anytime soon. Still haven't made a penny off it and haven't tried to... not sure how well that'd go over with my employer. But I'd love to have (for example) a local sporting goods store's banner across the top of the page though... maybe one day... as long as feathers aren't ruffled.
Anyhow, wanna thank our four coaches for accomodating all my phone calls throughout yesterday. They were all busy with more important phone calls and didn't have to take the time, but they did whenever it was possible. Also wanna say thanks to Scott Unger, media/marketing guy for the Selkirk Steelers, who set up a 'Live Blog' last night from about 9:00pm to just after midnight, where fans came on and asked questions, etc. Scott said over 350 people logged on, and Scott, myself, OCN Blizzard play by play man Jamie Smalley, and Voice of the Dauphin Kings Kevin Jeffrey all took part. 'Twas fun!
