NBC Extends Wimbledon Contract

NBC has signed a "long term extention" with the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club for coverage of the Championships, Wimbledon.

More is hopefully forthcoming, as linked article does not provide exact duration.

UPDATE: The "long term deal" is for only four years. ESPN is also close to a deal that could include the Tennis Channel, according to sources.

New Counter, New Poll

Da Counter has officially switched to SiteMeter. Also, I've removed the "greatest lists" from the inclusion poll.

The web site will launch with a poll, which I'm working on right now, asking you to choose your topics of choice. The list right now is very general and still is huge. Here's the current list of topics, and I encourage you to help make it more specific by commenting on this post:
