    The site will be down Saturday as we move to a new server. We are moving to a custom server with specs that will meet our site's needs with vbulletin and vbSEO in mind. I want to thank hermhater and bloodfilledwater for their hard work and determination with the current server we are on but as we get closer to the season it was becoming apparent that a new solution was going to be required to meet the demands this site puts on the server. We should expect the usual downtime as the site moves to the new server.

    And FYI (i know we are a football site) but Homerun Derby is the 13th followed by the all star game on the 14th. Don't know if it matters or not...Just sayin.
