You All Forgot Our Birthday
JMUSB officially turned five years old last week on December 11. And every single one of you forgot, didn’t you? Well, that’s not technically true, since the fact that it was our birthday, anniversary, or whatever you call it had to brought to our attention by our friend. So we completely forgot too. But we expect more from you people.
It’s hard to believe it’s been five years since we got this little project off the ground. We started with a post about a basketball team led by a guy named Denzel Bowles and a link to video (because we didn’t know how to embed clips) about a flash mob in a library that didn’t exist when we were students. Things were a little rough around the edges at first, but have evolved to the point where the blog is now pretty well written and highly respected five years older.
A lot has happened since the blog started. The hoops team finally made it back to March Madness, the new Bridgeforth opened, coaches were hired and fired, and the CAA added and dropped and added teams. We got to write about it all. And we also got under the skin of other team’s fans and got to write about silly stuff like JMU athletes marrying boy band stars (which seemed to trump everything else traffic wise). That’s all been fun. What’s really been neat is the fact that we’ve been able to connect and make friends with a lot of people through the blog. That’s been great. What’s been even better is that the blog has made the two of us even closer than we already were. And for two guys who were pretty good friends already, that’s saying something.
So thank to everyone for putting up with us for the past five years. We’ll keep going if you keep reading. Go Dukes.
Thanks you guys for creating an alternate source for JMU news. You guys have become a daily stop for me. Also, I really appreciate the chance to write for you guys. If you guys ever expand the team I’d be happy to jump on board!
Happy Birthanniversary!
Thanks to you both for giving an aging Duke somewhere to go and find out the latest info and rumors about our beloved alma mater. As the only purple sheep in a family of hokies, this blog gives me a great place to visit online and discuss sports news/issues that I actually care about. Keep up the great work.
Congrats on 5 years. Cheers to 5 more!
Keep up the great work! Go Dukes!
More boy band posts, please.
Love the posts, great work guys. Go Dukes!
So let me get this straight; Orly pisses off the Judge, and if he actually did fine her $10,000.00, and all she needs to get a “trial by jury” is another $10,000.00 fine, which would be a total of,$20,000.00 …… I hope she’s going out of her way to piss this guy off.If she gets a trial by jury, it’s over for Obama.Okay Orly, you’re a woman, and women know how to push a mans buttons, so lets get to work Lady Liberty!Piss that Judge off !!!!!!!!!!Whooooooooooooooooooooo-hooooooo
