This is my 300th post on the SVPSteezy. Considering that I haven’t been blogging regularly for that long, I don’t know how significant that is, but I know it’s hard to try to be funny, insightful, and readable for one post, let along 300. I know, I know, there’s some videos in there, but I’ve written more than I’ve cheated with videos and links, so save the drama for your mama.
There’s a lot of people to thank and acknowledge for this. Personally, my wife of four months for putting up with late night researching, web surfing and commenting binges. Professionally, Dan Steinberg, the Mottrams, TBL’s 1 and 2, Larry Brown, the We Rite Goode guys, Hugging Harold Reynolds, Deuce of Davenport, DC Pro Sports Report, Construda, FanSided, Cousins of Ron Mexico and of course, the YardBarker network.
Last but certainly not least, I’d like to thank Scott Van Pelt for not suing a brother.
There’s been way more good than bad in these 300 or posts. Yesterday was among the worst, obviously. Still, it’s been a great ride early on. Here are some highlights courtesy of Google Analytics that help tell the story.
Most Viewed Post - Being Tony Durant - SI.com and the Wall Street Journal had a lot to do with this, but the fact that Kevin Durant had an older brother was intriguing in itself.
City with Most Views - Washington D.C. - Home of the Washington Redskins and the Washington Wizards, I’ve learned that if you invoke the names of Gilbert Arenas or Joe Bugel, magic will happen.
Foreign City with Most Views - London - This could mean one of three things: 1) Folks in London really like Baltimore-Washington sports, 2) The military personnel over there have too much time on their hands, 3) Ted Leonsis is an international icon.
Thanks everybody for reading, supporting and hating on me for all of these posts. Here’s to the next 300. And click more ads, people; I’m trying to do this for a living one day.
