Though, in less painful news, you've all been killing it as far as the Sports Page goes!  Tampa really is a derby town!  (Provided there's no World Cup or dying baseball magnates to compete with...)  As always, thanks for your support!

I was just coming on here to let you know!  Now I'm stuck looking for the edits.

Does this mean that you are getting a lot of hits?

Means I'm beating the averages.  They give me the "Tampa Bay average" and "Sports average" every time I go on.  We have no problem beating the "Tampa Bay average," but the "Sports average" is usually up there.  Luckily, Rocket City plus the Bradentucky recap doubled the leagues who'd read it.  Still haven't made the Top 5 Tampa Bay list, but who couldn't write a "Tampa Bay Sports Car" article every day?

I don't think so b/c the way I read it, I thought he maybe meant to put Sixgun Susie jam....and erroneously used the ATL skater instead..no?

[ShenaniTims]

No, it was Siouxsie.  There's way too many vowels involved for me to make a mistake like that.  It's not 100% proof, but I usually err on the side of laziness.

The announcers were calling her that too...

Yeah, I think Slam Margera got things just a bit mixed up.  Probably just nervousness from calling his first-ever DNN boutcast (let alone doing so solo).  Reminds me of how I kept calling CT Rollergirls' travel team the "Suburban Sabotage" during my first-ever DNN broadcast at ECDX '09.  DOH!

In his defense, he was pretty glowing in his praise of Tampa, and told me that Tampa falls in his Top 3 Most Fun Teams to Watch.

[Punkin]

Tampa falls in his Top 3 Most Fun Teams to Watch.

nice!

who are the other 2?

[Vince Hannity]

I believe he said Dixie (his home league) and Atlanta.  He mentioned he was trying to save his voice for the rest of the weekend, but that Dallas-Tampa bout was so crazy, he gave up.
