This page was originally posted, on March 17, 1996, as a schedule. I added game scores to it pretty much daily as the season progressed. The final version–this version–was posted on September 2.
In the event you’re coming to this page “cold,” here’s an explanation of what I’m up to.
FWIW: The next entry will be (re)posted on April 6. The first entry of the weblog proper will be (re)posted on April 8. Things should get more exciting at that point.
Outstanding! I’ll be following along.
Best regards,
Jesse
