Set Your Calendars For Liveblog

by Akula Wolf on Nov 11, 2010 2:22 PM EST

Now that basketball season is back, it's about time for the return of the liveblog. If things go as planned in Charleston next weekend, NC State will play a pair of games on ESPNU, including, with luck, the championship game against Georgetown on Sunday the 21st. Sounds like a good time for the first official liveblog of the season, though I'm going to plan one for the Friday game as well. The timing of that one is awkward (6 PM), so I'm afraid you'll need to leave work early. I'm sure your bosses will understand. Oh, yeah, the liveblog, of course!

And who knows, maybe we'll liveblog the Carolina game on Saturday, if there's interest. Could be a whole weekend of liveblog action. There may even be some triumph.

If you haven't participated in one before, I hope you'll give it a shot this season. They make the losing a lot easier to take. Where else on the internet can you swear with people you've never met while watching a sporting event? Everywhere else? Oh.

Liveblogging: DeFilippo-sanctioned fun since 2008.

Lookng forward to Charleston Classic

As a State graduate attending graduate school at Georgetown, I am looking forward to these two teams meeting up in this tournament. It’ll be a great test for them both, but especially State. Hope it happens.

if there is even a question ...

then he is way over-valuing the chance to hook up in a bar that night. Which I guess I can kind of understand, but that doesn’t mean you have to respect it.

liveblog population

Let’s don’t promote this thing too much. The good ones last year had just the right number of participants – enough you had frequent comments, but not so many you couldn’t keep up. Rarely had five new posts before you could respond to the last one. And kind of got to know folks. Certainly a couple guys here I’d buy a beer for if they introduced themselves somewhere, and I wouldn’t say that about SFN.
