If you are interested in how many hits the site receives, there have been 9,600 so far just this month. Close to 66,000 this year.
The Blogs are a bit of a side idea. I originally started them last spring to give weekly updates about softball and baseball season; and again, I have no idea how many people actually read them but I had fun writing them. Then for football season, to make the site stick out (because lets face it, there are probably too many high school football websites out there) I put some weekly Hogoheegee previews in here with some lame-o predictions I came up with in my nerd-time. A few of you have offered some good words about them so I'll keep them coming.
The videos are a monster of my time, money, and sleep. It involves me packing up the Kodak and a friend and driving no less than 50 minutes to the "closest" and "most hyped" game I can. This takes up a majority of my Friday, my gas money, and sometimes when I go alone to a high school football game with a camera, my dignity. But hey, I love doing it. So with that being said, there will not be a video for a couple of weeks. A guy has priorities and school happens to be on top of mine. Don't worry though, the website... and my family... are a tight second.
Some of you want to know who I am and what I look like...
I really wish I could put a hit counter on these blogs so I could really know how many people are actually appreciating my spare-time. But then again, it would probably only turn out to be 3 per day and one of them would be me. So if that's the case, to the other two of you, get a life. Nah, I'm just kidding, please don't...seriously.
Does anybody have any ideas on how to spice up basketball season? Last year I did rankings for boys basketball and that was a HUGE hit. I was appalled. I didn't do girls because it is hard enough for me to get girls scores from the district, much less the region. Maybe one day, but as of now, reporting for female sports is really sad. I hope that inspires some of you, but anyway.. I'll be doing that again for boys ball and I'm also trying to get some coaches in some interviews like I did for football. Coaches are hermits though and don't like to venture far from their caves to lend time to sweet gentlemen like myself, so we'll see how it goes.
But with that being said, please pass the word around to any Coach, Fan, Parent, Player, or Team Manager.. it is YOUR responsibility to give me the scores if you want them on here. So if your son or daughter is hitting the court this winter and you plan to make it to a lot of games, then you're going to need to add this email address (hogosportz@hogoheegee.com OR hogo_sportz@yahoo.com) to your phone or Outlook and report those scores. Don't worry if you think it has already been reported, I would rather have too many reports than none which is sadly the case much of the time and it's frustrating for myself and fans who enjoy the site. I know people go to all the games and I know 97% of people have the internet or some means of communicating with me...no excuses.
Uncle Hogo Needs YOU!
Until next time..
