I've made a big discovery, and unfortunately I have to give Jeremy Lin some of the credit

The other day I was reading a post on celticshub.com about why trading Rajon Rondo for Paul Gasol would be a good deal for the Boston.  I have an extreme dislike for Gasol and a very high level of affection for Rondo, so I was inspired to write a comment underneath.  To help make my case, I left a link to one of my posts explaining why, contrary to popular belief, I believe Rondo actually can shoot.  The next day when I checked my stats, I was pleasantly surprised to see that 30-some people had clicked on that link.  So yesterday I left another comment on a cbssports.com article about Jeremy Lin, and included a link to my blog that details why I think he's going to have a tough time the rest of the season.

When I got home from work last night, I discovered that NINE HUNDRED people had clicked on that link.  I assumed it was some sort of computer glitch, so I left another comment/link below a story about Lin on espnnewyork.com.  By this afternoon, 600 people had been here via that link.  In the last 3 days, this site has gotten as many hits as it did in the entire month of October.

Now I'm sure this is somewhat of a coincidence, and obviously it won't always be so easy, but I have definitely stumbled across a fairly effective way to promote lucidsportsfan.com.  And if you've been wondering this whole time how the picture relates to anything; the answer is it doesn't.  But when I did a google image search for "discover something new" it popped up, and I just liked it a lot.  Years ago I started mentally designing what the perfect bar would look like, and this one has several of the key components.

Also I don't know why the ads on the side only work sometimes, I'm hoping it's something adbrite will sort out in the near future.
