More on Anchor of Gold. The official site will stream the 1pm press conference “in regards to the football program.” I’m trying to post relevant links on my Twitter, too.

I’ll make this short and sweet. I don’t write enough about Vanderbilt sports to merit maintaining a site for it.
I will be blogging at Anchor of Gold. Here is my stuff presented as its own blog — when I feel ambitious, I’ll try to get the root of savetheshield.com to redirect there. There’s also a personal activity page in case you want to read my comments, etc. across the whole SBNation network. I’ll try to set up an archive on STS — probably http://savetheshield.com/archive, but don’t hold me to it — or otherwise archive old posts over there.
I really do like how SBN is organized, as well as what AoG has built and is in the process of building. Frankly I wish both of them had been around when I set up STS. I still love the discussion at VandySports, but I think the market has shown that intelligent talk about sports is better served by blog networks than by a technically crappy message board where everything expires after three weeks. None of this in any way should be construed to impugn the fine journalistic work the VS guys do. Really, the work they do for little explicit reward is phenomenal! But I’m pretty sure they would tell you that the message board is secondary, particularly the free message board. Rivals’ technical strategy, if there is one, reflects this lack of emphasis. Sometimes you just want to refer back to something you wrote three years ago, you know?
I’m quite certain that group blogging will be more suited to my temperament than trying to keep STS going singlehandedly.

Today I finally got around to watching the first half. No, it’s not for masochistic pleasure, and in fact I’ve been emotionally “over it” for a while now. I just didn’t have the free time to go back and try to watch analytically until now. But I think they take the first two rounds down after the final game, so I’d better get this out of the way.
I have nothing earth-shakingly divergent from the conventional wisdom so far, but here are a few observations:
That’s all I’ve got. The biggest conclusion I’m taking away from this second viewing is that we were really in a mess defensively, given that it’s hard to go for long without either JJ or BT on the court. Now I’m actually eager to watch the second half to see how we fixed things. Other than that, at least this viewing confirms some of my earlier impressions, so I guess that’s worth suffering through it again.
