Who Wants to Have a Blog Here?

I see there are a couple of Blogs running on the forum here now.

How about opening up a Blog section for everyone Jack?

It would be great to be able to have a blog here and be able to read through other's blogs, I'm sure some would be a good read lol...

A blog is a place to put the stuff that is uniquely you. It's your home, like your own site. It's your space to put in your thoughts and ideas, where you and others can access them.

You can keep a record in there of what you bet, in greater detail than you would put in a sig, if you want to, so others can see how you've done.

In time, certain blogs become more popular, get higher ratings, more comments. You want to see what a certain capper has written because you know they can cap. You want to read what their latest thoughts are on the games, because they have won you money in the past.

Some blogs would be very profitable to follow, others would always be good for a laugh, some would be both, and would be the first place you'd visit on the forum as a habit.

ill pass, i dont get it. people have too much time w/blogs Facebook etc. we post picks here & talk sports, why do i need a place to give my insight when i can & do it on the forum itself. maybe i am getting old?
