Announcements

It’s not often that we pat ourselves on the back here at LBS, and that’s probably because most of what we do is crap. I recognize that. But even if our expertise is only posting garbage, we take some pride in knowing that we’ve been …

A lot of people who read the site have no idea that I work for Sporting News Radio as a show host and update anchor and that I work on this website on the side. Likewise, many people who listen to the show have no idea that I also have a sports site …

We apologize for interrupting your normally scheduled programming to bring you this announcement. Some of you may have been aware that aside from updating LBS with frivolous sports content, I also host a show and do sports updates on Sporting News …

That’s right, I’m going parasailing with my 20-year-old girlfriend. And keep it quiet — the wife doesn’t know anything about it! See you back here on Tuesday, the 21st (unless I find my way to a computer before then …) I …

Just wanted to let you know that I’m pretty pumped up to be hosting a Friday overnight show on Sporting News Radio. I realize the 11pm-4am PT slot means it’s Saturday morning on the East Coast, but hey, if the sun ain’t up, then it …

For as much as you do for the site by reading, commenting, and supporting all things LBS, I don’t do nearly enough for you. But I’m going to try and make things up. I have a Super Bowl prize pack from Pepsi to give away that would be …

OK, so my last week’s worth of posts and comments disappeared due to some sort of unfortunate database glitch. For anyone who missed it, I checked into the emergency room last Monday, believing my appendix had burst. Well, not only did my …

OK, so many of you have realized that the comments haven’t exactly been working too well lately. (That’s code for every single comment has been flagged as spam over the past week). Anyway, to try and get around this problem, I’ve …

A few days ago (seems like weeks to me), I presented Mark Spitz’s comments about not being invited to Beijing while Michael Phelps was trying to break his record of 7 gold medals. I called Spitz a bitter man in that post because, let’s …

Just wanted to give you all a heads up and explain what’s been going on with the site in case you’ve noticed some issues lately. An influx of traffic on Tuesday caused the site to go down quite a few teams, and the server was hovering in …

Just in case you had trouble getting on or are noticing the site running slower than usual, it probably has to do with some switches we’re making. We’re in the process of switching website hosting companies from GoDaddy to Blue Host. …

Hopefully you’re checking in on the site to get this in time … at 12:30pm PT/2:30pm CT, I will be a guest with Jon Miller on KXNO in Des Moines. Go here to listen to the interview on the show as we talk all things MLB.

Ordinarily I can’t stand March Madness, as you all well know. It’s around this time that I write off around 20 bucks, spread over four or five losing brackets. My picks always suck, and I always finish last. Need I remind you once again …

For those of you who were trying to access the site anywhere between 8:30am PT Monday morning to about 3:50pm PT Tuesday afternoon, you may have noticed that the site was down. Well, your deepest suspicions have been confirmed: the terrorists …

That’s right folks, for the first time since the launch of the site back in January, and really, the first time since Winter Break ’02, LB will be taking a little vacation. I am off on a mission to broaden the horizons of LBS and reach …
