Mr. Belding approves.
Actually, two things to announce.
1. We will be going to http://avoidingthedrop.com in the next couple of days, so when the official change comes, we’ll announce it so you can all update your links and bookmarks. We’re nice like that.
2. As soon as a consensus is reached, we’ll have a new theme here. Our friend Sculptor helpfully pointed out that it’s sort of tough under this current theme to see who is the actual author of the post. We’ll grab a theme from WordPress that will help us do that and take it from there.
Thanks for your ongoing support of Avoiding the Drop. Unlike others, we value you as a community and hope you’ll continue visiting our site. That is all.

Since you’re making changes, how about adding more content? I don’t think you cover Manchester United enough.
From our by-laws:
33. There will be no penalties or fines assessed for consistently predicting the incorrect scores of every match in MLS.
34. Mentioning, or even thinking about Manchester United in the ATD offices…that’s a paddling.
35. All hail Liverpool! And too a lesser extent, Arsenal. If you must, Ross County.
Oh, I have the feeling we’ll be talking more and more about United this season. This offseason hasn’t exactly been gracious to them.
Can we talk about how awesome that photo of Mr. Belding is? He gave a talk at my undergrad about five years ago. I had an organic chem final the next morning. Obviously I went to see him anyway. He didn’t fail to disappoint. He’s unintentionally hilarious.
I got a sneak peek at those by-laws. Fuse left out the important sub-clause in rule 34.
Rule 34a: at the discretion of the management, a spanking paddle with holes may be employed.
Nice! It only took me until 4:15 this afternoon to get the joke in the title of this post. Good thing I have tomorrow off…
