Come to the Launch of 312sports.com!

[Guest]

wait.... are you guys using IE 6?

[Guest]

Ouch - 312sports is blocked at work but NSBB isn't. I'll register at home tonight.

[Banedon]

wait.... are you guys using IE 6?

 

Yep...only option for me at work. And the IE7 rollout is not going well.

[javy knows my name]

IE 6 is the worst thing ever. Thank God I can use Chrome at work.

[Guest]

I wonder why that site would be blocked...

 

Think it is the "sports" in the title that the blockers are catching? Or sites that begin with numbers like 312?

[Roast]

Ok, so who's the big fat jerk who took the name Roast2k9 over there? :club:

[inari]

I'm digging it, Tim. Really great work. I wish I had beat you to the punch, I've always wanted to be a part of a website like that.

[Guest]

By the way, we have podcasts of interview sessions with Ron Zook, Pat Fitzgerald and Danny Hope online over at 312sports.com.

 

A small piece of what is to come. :)

if we want to recommend the site to non-NSBB'ers, would you prefer we do it now or wait until the official Friday launch?

It's just a couple days until Friday. There's still a few wrinkles being worked out, so I'd say hold off until then.

Lots of progress being made at 312. The team pages for the pro sports are all in place with a fair amount of content already, with lots more goodies coming soon. The college pages are mixed in how much is there, but the Illinois page is starting to show some of the possibilities.

[Vanilla Ice]

I'm digging the site.

[Derwood]

so, is it officially "launched" yet?

Not the countdown clock on the front page of the site. ;)

[Guest]

For all the Illinois fans out there...

 

The first major interview of tonights festivities will be live at 6pm central and the second will be live at 9pm.

 

Be sure to come to the site and check them out!

It's too low on the page to be seen when you first surf there, so I didn't see it. Not very prominent

It's 450 pixels down on the screen - what kind of crazy resolution are you running?

Here's a screen cap of what I see when I go to the page:

You must have hit ctrl++ about seven times.

You must have hit ctrl++ about seven times.

 

hit what now?

 

it's just what it defaulted to

 

I'm on a laptop, so if I ctrl - too much then the message board is too tiny to read

[Guest]

The player introductions are on the front page of 312sports!

 

to steal a lousy phrase from southwest air...It's on!

[Guest]

the festivities have started!

 

The first video is up with the player introductions

 

More coming soon including the dunk contest! :D
