A Special Thanks from All of Us

Blueshirt Banter hit a very special milestone today. Earlier this morning we registered our 500,000 visit. That is truly Blueshirt_medium
remarkable for a site that started literally from scratch. The early days of this site were literally Ryan McFadden and I putting stories up, and then commenting on them, trying desperately to get people involved in the conversation.

We've come a long way in just 9 months, and we have all of you to thank. Your support of this site and of the radio shows is absolutely amazing, further proof that Ranger fans are the best hockey fans in the world.

So from me, Joe, Rob, Ryan, Eddie, Nick and Laurie, thank you all very very much for the continued success and growth of this site, because without you it wouldn't be possible.

Just an FYI, tomorrow night is our First Annual "Blueshirt Banter Radio Holiday Spectacular", it's just going to be more of a bull session, no guests scheduled, so we'd love to just have you guys join us and call in. Should be a fun show, we'll have some laughs and talk Ranger hockey.

Repeat post..

I posted this in another thread, but it really belongs here.

I just want to say that this type of good discussion is what brought me over to Blueshirt Banter – and keeps me here. Kudos to all the contributors and the "hosts" for keeping this the best Ranger discussion place on the net.!

Congratulations on the milestone – keep up the good work.
