Sometime yesterday, Get the Picture enjoyed its 20,000,000th hit. As someone who started this blog on a complete lark (Reggie Ball as my muse!), call me gobsmacked by that number.
Needless to say, I still enjoy bloviating as much as ever. But I enjoy your company here even more. Thanks for continuing to stop by the joint.
First!
Gobsmacked.
Love you’re work Senator.

20 million is indeed a large number of hits. I’m sure I have contributed a few thousand myself. It’s a daily ritual. You would have no way of knowing this Senator… but your blog has (in part) contributed to our decision to relocate back to Athens following retirement at the end of this year. Building a house in the Classic City as we speak. Go Dawgs!!

Congrats, you put a lot of effort into finding the national stories that impact CFB, and still keep the focus on UGA…great balance. Since I often comer to posts by way of Dawgbone, I guess I account for an additional hit every post I read, not just once when I come to your site directly. Don’t know how that works actually but it can’t hurt. Hope you are getting back into game shame for the season.

I remember when you posted on old ABH message board that you had started it. It’s still going strong and been so popular because you do a great job.
