I upgraded feedland.org to a new version of the system software, still being tested. In the process I started a fresh items table. This means for the next day or so your timeline may have a lot of items for a few feeds, as it catches up with every feed it keeps track of. Also, the server was down for a couple of hours while we did the upgrade. Still diggin! ;-)

Don’t Let The Shills Tell You The Commercial-Free Service Should Have Commercials

Don’t Let The Shills Tell You The Commercial-Free Service Should Have Commercials

This season, NFL RedZone will have commercials. It actually had commercials for a moment last year: During a Sunday slate of games this past December, the NFL tested out whether it could get away with them without a revolt. Despite complaints, the ads are here to stay.

RedZone host Scott Hanson mentioned this change during an interview on Wednesday's episode of The Pat McAfee Show. He noted that his introduction will no longer be "Seven hours of commercial-free football starts now," because that simply isn't true anymore. "The business folks handle the business, and I have no say over different elements that could or could not be in the show," Hanson told McAfee. Going forward, the host's intro will be: "Seven hours of RedZone football starts now."
