One More Update

March 28, 2012

It's been a while, and you have probably noticed that the blogs have gone through a major overhaul. There are still a few more little details I want to throw in, but for the most part, the redesign is done. On Monday, April 2nd, I will return to posting on the blogs regularly, I will also be posting regularly to the new Twitter and Facebook accounts as well (@OTBphilly on Twitter and On the Board Philly on Facebook, in case you are interested in following). I understand that it may have been frustrating to you, the reader, over the past month while I took off to do the redesign. Again, I am very sorry for any inconvience that I have caused you, and I hope that you will find the blogs to be a lot better than they were before. I have also set up a YouTube channel that is connected to the blogs as well. There are currently no videos on it yet, but a few friends and I have been working on creating a weekly sports talk show. We have been working, but were not at the point where we feel we are ready to start posting episodes just yet. Just know that we are working on it, and expect to have the show ready very soon.

I can not stress enough how sorry I am for any inconvenience or frustration I may have caused you over the past month. I am deeply sorry.

I worked hard on the new look for the blogs, and I hope that you really enjoy it.

Remember, I will return to posting daily on April 2nd.

I look forward to getting back to writing.

P.S.- Tomorrow (March 29th) I will be heading down to Clearwater for the last few days of Spring Training. I plan on sharing everything I see and her on the blog when I return.

Update

March 5, 2012

You mave have noticed recently that some dramatic changes are being made to both That Phillies Blog and That Flyers Blog. You probably also have noticed that no news has been posted as of late, and there is an explanation for that. I've been playing around with the various tools that Blogger (along with the rest of the internet) has to offer with the intent of dramaticly improving the blogs. But as I started to learn more and more about what I could actually do, I decided to relaunch That Phillies Blog and That Flyers Blog. For starters, both blogs are now joined together by one home page, so now, you only have to type in one address to get your news fix. Next is a name change. Both blogs are under one name now; On the Board Philly (ontheboardphilly.blogspot.com). The web addresses for both the Phillies (thatphilliesblog.blogspot.com) and Flyers (thatflyersblog.blogspot.com) blogs will remain the same until further notice. With the relaunch, the blogs will also finally expand into socialmedia. A Twitter account has already been created (@OTBphilly), and a Facebook and YouTube page are on the way.
I have a lot more other features and ideas to add to the blogs, and they will remain up the entire time so you can see the progress. Right now, I have no set date for the official relaunch, but I can say that it will be in March of this year, and that I will work to make it happen as soon as possible. I kindly ask you, the reader, to please bare with me until then.

I thank you for all the support.

P.S.- I will be updating the Twitter account regularly, even though the blogs themselves are not back yet. Follow On the Board Philly on Twitter (@OTBphilly).
