Thanks for making July the best month in HALOS HEAVEN History - we had over 55,000 unique visitors to the site according to SiteMeter and that was a record for us!

Well, no doubt

I'm sure it was all the flash-tacular Stoneman trade rumors.

So, what constitutes a "unique visitor" anyway'z, Rev.? Me and melbatoast actually live on the site -- do we count as unique residents?

by Bilko 420 on Aug 2, 2007 8:50 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs

Yeah I'd like to see a metric of non-unique hits.

I'd bet that 90 percent of the hits are 1 percent of the unique visitors. Actually 90 percent of the hits are probably around 10 people.

Speaking of metrics

How would you score your Value Over Replacement Poster?

I'm putting scareduck way up there. I'm also hoping acuda27 has a breakout second half...

Do you think Coach Owens can stay healthy?

Cupie's on my fantasy team.

Nice take!

I think we need to organize an OPD fantasy

league.

Great idea!

OPD Fantasy Rules

Awesome posts are awarded 1 point
Dubious posts are subject to value-assessed point negation
The drafting of Rev Halofan will be automatically bundled with Coach Owens -- mattwelch in turn bundles with acuda27
Stirrups will be the sole poster that MUST be included in any deal after the trade deadline (Sep. 30)

Higz/melba', please feel free to add to these rules...

So, like,

I'm gonna be left off the playoff roster?

by Stirrups on Aug 3, 2007 9:51 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

No, not at all

You're the wild card.

Awesome

Hey Bilko, I've got these two bitchin players named blaqhalo and johnsamo. How bout it - these two for scareduck?

by Higz on Aug 3, 2007 11:03 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

Sorry

scareduck is untouchable. I might entertain serious offers for Stirrups only if they include one established poster, and two top level prospects.

Also, any deal for Stirrups MUST include angelsrallymom (OBP).

who gets Coach Owens?

You need to go back and look at 2006.

My stats last year define a much higher upside! I have been on the DL since spring training, but am working my way back into the rotation and should return to my 2006 form pretty soon. I am worth at least one more player off the 40-man, plus another prospect, plus cash.

by Stirrups on Aug 3, 2007 12:45 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

But, but..

how can any manager rely on a player who is so inconsistent? Managers need a guy who can be out there everyday.

I'm a second half of the season

every day player.

So, like, half the time I'm always working.

And that time is NOW!

FAIR WEATHER POSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOT!

I post during the second half of the season regardless of how bad the Angels are going to play.

oh boy, stirrups is back in the saddle!

Up until the point

where you threaten to crash me into the right-hand margin. Then I find my seat at the end of the bench.

by Stirrups on Aug 3, 2007 3:24 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

You're talking about a different fantasy league

I'm talking OPD fantasy where you get points for your players winning at OPD. bc goes first in the draft.

Uh...that graph looks like TOTAL visits

not UNIQUE visitors.

by Stirrups on Aug 2, 2007 9:19 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs

Visits from same IP don't count

although I do not know the time limit on sitemeter logging of IP addresses.

Out of curiosity

why are the AL West blogs on SBN the most active ones? A lot of the other team blogs are largely dormant.

West coasters are nerdier?

It's an opinion I've always held.

Maybe more of us can read?

Maybe ESPN

hasn't told them about the Internet yet.

home sweet home

Well Rev, I'm a rookie here and I love my new home... I'm a life long halo fan but been living in Romania for the last 11 years... Obviously I don't see any games, but being here in Halo heaven helps deal with missing out... keep up the good work and thanks for the site...
