OT: New sports site concept, users control what the news is!
Hey everyone. I recently created a digg.com like site for sports and sports only since it is hard to get anyone on there care about digg. I started creating it this morning so there will be some changes over time. Currently we have the site auto submitting sites from RSS feeds of ESPN and Fox News. Until we get more story submitters and we will scale the auto submitted stories down. Again it is a brand new site, so feed back would be nice. Feel free to vote or "smack" stories to the front page using the "Smack for Stories" button.

Now to the site name. Might think its weird but I figured the universal sign in athletics for good job is as pat on the ass. Thats where the name came from. Feel free to anonymously vote or create a username and submit your schools news and stay awhile...Thanks for reading

I was thinking of something more like NCAAOvertime 03-wink Would add another site to the network and resurrect an old name.

Just so happens an NCAAbbs member already owns that domain 03-melodramatic

We have other forums here for professional sports. Could OVERTIME work as it is now, with news for all sports?

Perhaps if all pro sports were lumped into one section?

Swag nasty goes from saying its the worst site ever to wanting to host it. What a change of events. 03-melodramatic

Might be easier to export everything then redirect that URL to the new one

Once you change the name and the awful coloring scheme, it's hardly the same site.

Besides the red and black (for obvious, UGAg reasons), I like the color schemes/ideas.
