Question of the Week

Welcome to our second Question of the Week. We were very pleased with the response we got last week and hope to build on that with this weeks edition. Brett Favre recently passed for over his 400th career touchdown. Add that with the over 50,000 career yards of passing and there is no question that he has put together one of the all time great careers at quarterback. The question on the table is how great? Where do you rank Brett Favre in your pantheon of all-time greats? Top 5? Top 10? Outside them both? Best ever? Write in with your answers and we will discuss them on the show next Monday. This is BC, keep listening...

Question of the Week

Hey readers, how's it going. This is BC: Brian Corley one of BoxScore Banters co-hosts. I just felt like welcoming everyone to the site and I hope that you will keep listening/reading as we get more organized and put up more shows. I thought it would be good to get some dialogue with you the fans so I am going to be posting a Question of the Week once a week for you to write in with some of your own thoughts and opinions.
This weeks question:

In light of the still incomprehendable comeback made by the LA Dodgers this past week (back to back to back to back home runs in the 9th and then a walkl off in the 11th) I decided to theme the question to sports comebacks. What is your favorite/most memorable single game comeback in sports history. Any sport, any level. If you are curious about mine it is game 3 of the Boston Celtics and New Jersey Nets 2002 NBA playoff series. As I am sure you all know my Celtics came from 21 points down at the start of the fourth quarter to complete the biggest ever fourth quarter comeback in NBA Playoff history. They outscored the nets 41-16 in the fourth to win 94-90. E-mail us with your favorite comebacks or post them as a response to this.

From the desk of bombs...

Whats up all!
I hope you all enjoyed the pilot of the Boxscore Banter, I thought it went very well. However the best is yet to come! I hope all of you tune in on Friday to our football Friday broadcast. Should be fun, PS Yanks magic number down to one!

Be good,
JJ

More Good News

Well, after what seems to be a successful first show of BoxScore Banter, the good news keeps rolling in. I was just informed by iTunes that we were accepted into the iTunes Music Store Podcast Directory. Those of you who had a tough time subscribing to the show or downloading it will find that it has now become a lot easier. I am changing the side link where it says "Subscribe with iTunes" so that it will now bring you to the show page on iTunes. From there you can choose to download the shows individually or subscribe to it (just click subscribe).

Also, the show is now in the searchable database which means if you search for it on iTunes it will come up. Note: We are BoxScore Banter - there is another one called "The Box Score Banter" that was someone else's show which they stopped doing.

We also should be getting ads up on the site soon...this could potentially help us with making some money so that we can eventually buy a domain and spend some money on a server with more bandwidth and options (all of this is wishful thinking).

Keep those emails coming, we will try to cover 2-3 every show. Until Friday afternoon, just check the Box Score...

The Good...The Bad...

A little bit of good news, a little bit of bad....

Good news:

1)
We have received a few emails already and really like the questions/topic suggestions. For those of you who are checking this site out for the first time, feel free to email us at boxscorebanter@gmail.com with any topics you would like us to discuss, or just to give us some feedback.

2)
We are a go for tomorrow afternoon. We now have an intro song and a solid idea of how the show is going to go. Please give us a few episodes to get all the kinks out. We promise a good listen.

Now for the bad news:

As of 1:35 AM on September 18, there is NO bad news. I uploaded a test show with success. I do not recommend downloading it...I will not post a link, but if you find it and choose to download it, you will just be wasting your time.



The site I am hosting the show on, podbean.com is giving me a difficult time with uploading the show. I sent them an email and hopefully they will respond by showtime tomorrow. I would try to find another host but for the amount of space podbean.com provides for free, it seems like it is the best option once I figure out what is wrong. We will hopefully switch away from podbean once we start to get enough listeners that we actually need to pay for space (that is the ultimate goal ;) ).


Regardless of what happens with podbean.com, we will still do the show, and if we have to, we will find another place to temporarily post it.

Until then, let the word out about the show...new post tomorrow!

We're Live in Five...

Hello to everybody who knows about the upcoming podcast "BoxScore Banter" with BC, Bombs, and the MurrDogg. We are three guys spending our time in Syracuse, NY with nothing better to do than offer our insight on sports to the rest of the globe.

Our first recording will be Monday, September 18th sometime before the MNF game. Odds are we will probably post the show the next day. In the future, we will be attempting to get the show done during the weekend in order to have our monday night picks out to you before the games actually go down.

I will post here pretty frequently, so check back to see what is happening. I will definitely make a post within the next few days; mostlikely including the link to our 1st show. Until then...Just check the Box Score.
