So after having done a live blog at a women's lacrosse game yesterday for work, I got the crazy notion in my head while driving home afterwards... "Hey, why not do one in ITC? Maybe that'll add something new that hasn't been done before."

There's a website called Coveritlive.com, which contains a software tool that allows you to do something akin to a live chat or a blog. If anybody followed the trade deadline on TSN.ca, they used the same platform through Cover It Live.

I'll probably tinker with something like this tonight, so if you have anything you want to drop in, like news, rumors, stats, etc., you can either PM me or leave a comment in the chat platform itself.

Comment: sounds interesting. Would you do it around trade deadline time, Stanley Cup finals or daily. I'm not too familiar with it...

Question: do hot chicks play women's lacrosse?

To answer your comment: Anytime I feel like it. Could happen in response to a news item or big trade, or maybe on some kind of weekly or bi-weekly schedule.

To answer your question: That entirely depends...

Hmmm, that didn't work the way I thought it might.

I thought I'd be able to put the code right into a forum thread, but that doesn't work. Jer would have to paste the code into the ITC homepage, I think, in order for this to work.

Pretty sure you could just set up a free account on blogger and host it like that. I could be high though.


Thats a fantastic idea though.

I think that's probably what I'll do. I could interview various GMs and talk to them about their teams, and have them take questions from the gallery, so to speak.

If nothing else, I think it'd be pretty fun.

Dear Columbus GM,

who the hell do you think you are in trading Ryan O'Marra? He is a legend in Columbus and trading him signifies nothing except that you have no regard for the city in which you currently manage.

Signed,
Columbus Blue Jacket fan [and also Penguins GM]
