More video is on the way.
Organized Q&As - ok sounds good.Coverage of other sports. Here's the thing - and I hate to be negative - but you guys really don't read the things we post on other sports. A perfect example was softball. The live threads got thousands of hits -- you all wanted to know the scores. The gamers got maybe a couple of hundred until the postseason, and then they still got nowhere near numbers as the live threads.
Basketball, I think we covered every home game, and the majority of home baseball games.
But if we did more on other sports, what are we talking about, features? News (Grant keeps things very, very tight, so that's a big reason you don't see more)? Columns?

(A specific example came to me after my initial post. How well do you think it would have went over if I had written before the national championship game that Marquis Maze vs. the Honey Badger was an advantage for LSU? See my point?)
However, if you read the stories during the days leading up to the games, there are a lot of subtle references about what are expected got be the key matchups.

Gang, I'm getting close to getting some down time, when one of the things I like to do after clearing my head is take a step back and try and think of ways to improve.
I look at our site and the message board is flourishing, our recruiting guys are machines, and our tech gurus keep aggressively setting the bar higher.
So specific to my niche, team coverage, here's my goal: To get each and every one of you to tell a friend that they're missing out and need to be on BOL.
How do I do that, or better yet convince you to do so? Open forum here -- just please keep it clean -- and all suggestions welcome. We've done this before and had some interesting replays.
Thanks
IF IT FEELS GOOD,YOU AIN'T DOING IT RIGHT!

Here's the problem with me specifically doing that.
I'm the guy who is in the media room each and every day dealing with the players.
The first time I write that the opposition has the advantage over an Alabama player the guy seeks me out, tells me that I'm full of you-know-what and then refuses to ever talk with me again. Considering how little access we get it's the last thing I want to do.
