PrintThought I'd put up a FanPost where everybody can sign in like a regular roll call. I want to know who has already made the switch over to the new format. If you've made the switch, update your profile and add a pic to be your avatar.
Also, if you're a regular who has changed names during the switch-over, let us know here. Tell us your old name and the new one. Maybe we should create name tags...Hello, may name is....
I'm Grizz and I'm lovin' the new BTB 2.0.

Trying to get used to this place.. I feel new again like a child watching his mother leaving on his first day at kindergarten. I’ll be strong though, I’ll be strong..
I still dont like the subject lines.
But everything else is nice. I wish it had old stats.. maybe i just didnt look hard enough. Either way i like the new change!
What old stats?
Maybe I can direct you to the right place.

Like..
I click the stats button and it says 2008 stats coming soon.. well where are the 2007, 2006 so on..
that comes from a 3rd party provider
I will check to see if we will get the historical stats. It might be a money issue, they may want us to pay for that or something.

I first realized my disease when I was 10 years old. . .Danny White had a QB season better than any other in Cowboys’ history and we still lost in the playoffs to ‘the Catch’. I cried for three days. . .

Not bad

First to six!!!

The new site looks great, Grizz! Just in time for the draft!
That #38 sure can hit!

On Board
Hi all. Cowboy Louie on Board with the new format. It’s great. Just enough time to get used to it before Draft Weekend.

Grizz - you done good, son.
I don’t know what we would be do without you, Grizz. I’m about to lose my job because of too much time on this site, but after the draft, I hope to have a good run and close some deals.

i think i am here
lets see…
yep. the global sign in works. unfortunately that probably means a lot of ignorant Philly, NY, and Washington fans will be stopping by during the season.

Hi
Longtime reader, never posted before here, just on Lone Star Ball, which is weird because I’m a bigger Cowboys fan than Rangers. I’ll try to change that during the draft.
New home
I am just thankful I stumbled onto BTB a few weeks ago.
I have been a Cowboys fan all of my life (now 53!).

formerly nonotmenever, decided to stick with my BON login. Trying to get acclimated with the new look and layout.
Can the draft just get here already…..
sprprsnmn here
I also agree that the new look is a bit cluttered, but I’ll get used to it with time.
"Rocks" with one exception
I keep getting these warnings that Flash Player is wreaking havoc with my browser. It sends me into ‘debugging’ mode. Is there something in the blank space at the top of the page that I’m supposed to be seeing?
BTW, “Pete” was taken so I’m now “Pete222”
Glad to see all the old faces!
I'm having a similar issue
blank space at the top, but it doesn’t send me into debugging mode or anything. I am checking on it. Is anybody else seeing the blank white space at the top or a blank white space on the right sidebar?

Looks good!
Longtime lurker, but thought I’d post for a change to congratulate you on the great new site.
a bit gettin' use to for sure....
Ok….same general name…BoyzRback – 07
I just cancelled out the ‘07….cuz I think we’re going to be back on top for some time Boyz…..lol
I have also noticed alot of new faces…I sure wish you so called “lurkers”..lol…would add a bit from time to time..I’m always looking for fresh perspectives on our Cowboys.
This new format makes it so much easier to post your thoughts of the day.

I'm here
it’s a little awkward at first, but I like it.
CowboyBawler4 in the houseee!
My popcorn's ready!
just checked in from sunny Jamaica
on vacation until draft day, cool format, should be a lot better.

lol...I was wondering where Terry went...one day without his posts...people notice...

Checking in
Occasional poster, though I hope to be more involved. The new site will take some getting used to, but I am not opposed.
Count me in...
New format looks great… I like it that all posts are open when you go to a diary and you don’t have to open them individually.
The Red Ball Express will be rolling this year!

still around
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dallas_cowboys Pretty much required reading for any Dallas fan.
new format looks good
Its been awhile since i posted (been on sabbatical since the playoffs) but I’m anxiously awaiting the draft and the 2008 season
It's Word Smith....
I’m digging the look. 5 days to go baby!!!!!!
New name
One letter names (e) no longer good, but web site is cool.
lurker
I’m Jeff and I mainly just read the posts. My firewall at works blocks BTB under “games”, but I did find a way to read the site thru the RSS feed.
Hey guys this is Tom
I guess I’m the only BTB regular who had to do a major name change. I should have done it the way Nelson did, just add some ellipsis’ but didn’t think about it long enough. Anyway , like the new format, still feeling my way around, but it looks really sharp.

Been mostly a lurker but an occasional poster. Pretty pumped about the new BTB 2.0, as I have been waiting for it ever since lonestarball got it. It is a much better layout and much easier to use for comments!
what up !
longtime cowboys fan and BTB lurker. i live in the washington dc metro area and have to listen to all the redskins hype each year, which makes me hate them more than most cowboys fans !!
newsih to BTB
Hi yall
first time commenting, thought id sign up with the swap over.
anyone here from the dallcowboys.com blogs?
Love the new site
New name, used to lurk on the old site as chefman66. Can’t wait for the draft, and the season upcoming. Go Cowboys!
A big BTB welcome
to all the lurkers and new guys who have signed up. I hope you guys will jump into the conversation, the more the merrier.
Hell yeah
Hey all, BudLight always and forever. Once known as Or Moyal before switching to a a more indiginous-sounding moniker to replace my given birth name. Anyway, great timing for SB 2.0. Draft week is one of my favorite times of the year.

HI MY NAME IS GROVES
I’m ready for draft day, this is my first post since the playoffs, i think, still check btb daily, but I was depressed about last season for the last 3 months or so

Been reading for a while, but according to these fancy-schmancy stats being tracked, I haven’t commented at BTB yet. Maybe having a single account for here & Pounding the Rock (Spurs blog) will get me participating.

I’ve been to so many different Cowboys web sites over the years until I found BTB. Grizz and his fellow writers have raised the bar, and the other members input only serves to add a bit of spice!

nice digs
but will take some getting used to …
Just say no to Pacman. He’s a loser.
Keep doing what you been doing, keep getting what you been getting.

...remains GhettoBear04. I voted down just because it takes longer to load on my phone, which is where I read half of the posts.

Are you a Dodger fan?
I have been for a long time.
My name is Ron. BOYS fan since around 1962 or 1963. I picked them because they were called The Cowboys. I have followed them through Viet-Nam and many states, If not a Boys fan I would probably not watch or care for football. This is my first post although I have lurked site daily for a couple of years:) Currently in Seattle and have managed to see three Boy’s game-paid $560.00 for one a couple of years ago for a Monday night when the boy’s scored 14 points in about the last two minutes, but had left with two minutes to go to beat the crowd:(

Looks great Grizz
Man I have holding off joining, but I can’t stand it any longer. I joined the DMN paid service and enjoyed the forums on there. But they dumped it. Oh Well.
2.0
Still poking around a little, but so far, I like what I see. Nice job!
Format will take some getting used to. . .
but overall it seems to be pretty good. I think the people voting against the new format are just a little thrown off by having to deal with something different that what they’ve been used to. Is there a post that kind of walks you through the new features. There may be, but I have not had time to look around too much yet. Good timing on getting the switch done. This would really suck if it happened on Friday or the Monday after the draft.
New site will take
some getting used to.I feel its for the best,however i’m still a little overwhelmed.Can’t wait for draft day!

Nice add (here)
I especially like the real-time update feature for game-day threads so we don’t need to click “refresh”!
And this is the 100th sign-in!
I'm here, for a brief time.
I saw nothing wrong with the old site and find the new one hard to read. I’ll follow the draft, but my Cowboys interest has waned since the awful playoff fades of the past two seasons. Maybe I’ll just watch the final two minutes of the first playoff game to see if they actually win one.
