Am I wrong or wasn't it Kassulke who married a Bennie?

In today's economy if ths board wasn't at least a breakeven situation, it wouldn't exist.  PC does a great job with the board but, it would be hard for me to swallow that he takes money out of his families pocket to keep it operational. 

The popups on the other board are ridiculous.

Are you using Firefox or Internet Explorer or what?

Because Firefox is excellent at blocking pop-ups.

Download Firefox.  It's got a grade A pop-up blocker and very slick tabbed browsing.

Not what I meant. On the posting part of the site. The front page and all the other parts are ok.

Thanks, it is much better.  I used it on my old pc and when I downloaded it everything started to go wrong.  Maybe just coincidence.

[CobberFvr]

Firefox has a great reputation. I am sure it was just coincidence.

Some people still do loss leaders.

But seriously, we've gotten about nine cents per thousand page views on the message board this month.

I guess we know why Pat moved to Minnesota then.  The big money is with the MIAC board.  1.1 Million Page Views = $100.  Nice.

[tmerton]

PC says these boards don't make him any money, and actually costs him money.

Why do you think I'm still here?

Good to know I've personally made you at least 72 cents!

If we all got in the habbit of clicking on an ad each time we log on or change threads, how long would it take before your advertisers noticed the lack of follow-through?  Maybe we could at least generate a little windfall for you.

71, I believe you are inviting "click fraud" and Pat doesn't want to be part of that.

The business  model if I'm not mistaken, is to use the forums as a traffic building tool which then allows Pat to use these numbers to sell "premium" advertising to other segments of the site such as ATN. Also, Pat sells the Season Preview for all the teams- high profit margin 
I'm sure Pat has long range financial plans for the site. He has the traffic so that's over half the battle of making with an information site. Pat's a smart guy, he'll do fine.
