We've considered a bunch of different possible ideas for commemorating the first day of our partnership with NBC.
And we continue to come back to one thing -- just keep doing what we do. (We liked it primarily because it didn't require us to do anything beyond the stuff we already do.)
But we still felt like we needed to do something different. So we plan to launch a Live Blog tomorrow at 12:00 p.m. EDT, just in time for our friends on the West Coast to show up for work and then get no work done for the first hour or two of the day.
In that Live Blog you can tell us what you like, tell us what you don't like, submit random wiseass remarks, or submit football-related questions that we might or might not ignore.
Basically, it's the Internet equivalent of a housewarming party. And I might have some jobs for some of you.
Eddie Drycleaner, I need you to be in charge of the coats. And I'll be asking Vox Veritas to guard the fish tank and make sure no one taps on the glass.
FooKFlorio? You're in charge of the music. We hope you get jiggy with it.
First.......I feel like Jackie Robinson
Love the new design.
first
Who gets to stay by the phone in case someone calls and asks for directions?
Eddie Drycleaner is like a rockstar!
testing, 1, 2, 3, testing...
Where is everybody?
I like the new look. I'm glad its not the NBC Sports format, this one still has the feel of the old site.
Looks sweet Florio. Great job to you and the everyone that made this happen. Congrats on the launch.
This nbc crap has gotten more annoying than micky jacko's death. get over it.
Like the new site layout. Congrats on your new home!
testing 4,5,6......
Is there a moderator in the house???

Falcons, baybee. :D
So what's to become of
1.) comment ratings
b.) turd watch
???
First posts with pictures in them, now I get to use HTML in my comment?
You have really made it big, my friend.
Looks much better.
It says there's 10 comments but I ain't seein' squat. Another seamless PFT internet escapade.
"And I might have some jobs for some of you."
In all seriousness, are you looking for moderators or something?
I was worried it would look like the NBC sports blogs. This actually looks like PFT, but better.
It's kind of like when Jerry redid his kitchen, except I actually like this new kitchen better.
You know what? F Florio, I'm goin' to sleep early.
Tuesday June 30 9:29 PM.
Definitely love the new design of the page.
Hopefully it'll read better on my cell phone now as well.
haha, you finally had to rid yourself of the
"bang it here for the daily rumor mill"
Don't feel bad, Mike, it didn't really make sense anyway.
Holy crap look at that DAYS WITHOUT AN ARREST graphic!
Everything looks so familiar, but will still take some getting used to.
And yes, Florio, that is what she said.
And here I thought PFT was keeping its domain name, and would just be hosted on NBC Sports' servers. Not sure I like the change, it seems to remove some of the appearance of independence.
I thought the comments wouldn't have to be approved anymore??
Finally, Kidekk, HAS COME BACK to PFT.
(Wrestling fans will get it)
A job at PFT?
Gotta be better than my internship at Kramerica Industries.
ENnn beeee seeeeeeeeeee
Sweet, you have reliable hosting for the site now. Next up for West Virginia... indoor plumbing & paved roads.
So you still haven't addressed the elephant in the room:
What is going to happen to PFTV? Is it going to be produced by NBC? Are you still going to be "working with"/"berating" Joe Brocato?
I like the layout, it looks better Mikey
Did NBC get control of the jars full of pee in your office?
Florio,
Great Job.
go giants
Testes...testes...1, 2.....3?
Nice, love LiveBlogs. Will you still have THE Kevin Everett video???
congrats again mike!
where are the comment ratings? :P
*taps on fish tank window*
"Anyone here?"
Dallas still sucks!
just for clarifications sake, so aliens can read this 2 million years from now, what Mr. Florio(Mikey to me) meant to say is that I am incharge of the SKIRTS. That's right ladies, you can leave them with me as you enter the PFT Planet.
And ArtVandeLay, by Rock Star you mean hammered by the time the sun goes down? Thanks for the appreciation. I wish I could have been here on day one. But, unfortunately, the lappy wanted to protest the move.
