I'm sure you all know about the merger taking place over the weekend (via PM I assume). JBB will be transferred over to Sportstwo.com and all users will be transferred over with it (PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP, your JBB profile will be transferred over automatically). All staff members keep their positions and the guys who have been running JBB since the beginning retain creative control. The site looks a bit rough and tacky right now but they're working on a re-design and it should be easier on the eyes in the coming weeks. I really enjoy the community we have on this board and I hope it carries over to Sportstwo. The in-depth, intelligent discussion we have here is really hard to find among the other Warrior boards around on the internet so I'm hoping most (or all) of you do make the switch over to sportstwo so we can continue with our discussion over there. Again, please don't be turned off by sportstwo.com's appearance, we're working on new graphics, sig limits, etc. so if you would just bear with us for a few weeks we'll have a lot of that stuff cleaned up. I'm excited about the site's potential as they have all the resources that we could never have here at JBB (historical stats, salary info, trade checker, etc.) so hopefully we can bring over the JBB quality discussion that bigger fan boards like ESPN and RealGM lack. Hope to see you there!
<div class="quote_poster">CohanHater Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Yep... I hope it is as troll-free as these boards</div> I'm confident that it will be. The entire JBB staff will retain their positions and should all continue to hold the sportstwo basketball board (it will be branded JustBBall) to the same standards as we do/did at JBB. We will still have little or no tolerance for people who troll, instigate petty arguments, post one-liners, etc. The goal is to have a site as large and resourceful as RealGM, ESPN, etc. but with quality discussion like we had here at JBB. Also, the staff encourage members of JBB to post around in the boards of other sports at S2.com. So please go ahead and post in the Raiders, 49ers, Giants, A's, Sharks, Cal, Stanford forums or Golf, Tennis, Soccer or whatever suits your fancy. A lot of these boards may be in need of moderators in the near future so if you're interested you can ask Shape or some other global mod. Again, hope to see all you guys there.
<div class="quote_poster">Silver Man Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I already have an account over there from BBW. Which is the same name.</div> Alright then if theres already an account on S2 with the same name then you should be able to sign in as "JBB (user name)". After the merger (tonight from around 11 PM to about 12:30-1 AM) you can talk to a mod and they'll work out how to combine your two profiles.
Excellent job, Run. This is going to be good! Once the basketball season starts (in our case: pre-season ball), we'll have a lot to discuss, especially when the new kids suit up. All the new features of this site will be very good to have, especially if we need to quote facts or gather statistics and we need to do it quickly without having to dig through a lot of additional sources (my bookmark collection of sports links).
Is there any way to make font bigger for this website? I have to say I am getting a headache to read 4 size font...</p>

Thanks for the help. I just dled FF (used to use IE), and it works great. No more headache as well . Can't say I prefer this web setting over JBB, but I guess I will live with what S2 provide...
