One more about the new layout

Posted by Joe Siegler on February 11, 2006 at 8:30 am

If you were reading my news updates via an RSS feed, you will need to regrab the rss file location. The reason is that the location of the rss file(s) has changed. The old ones are gone. Here are the locations for the new ones:

New Look

Posted by Joe Siegler on February 11, 2006 at 8:22 am

Well, as you’ve seen, I’ve implemented a new site look. I’ve taken away the frames look that has been here forever, and replaced it with a frameless version. I did this for a couple of reasons. As I have moved so much of the site into MovableType blogging software, the need for a framed menu became less important. The old menu on the left side is now on the right side. It will be there on every page (once everything is properly coded, which it isn’t yet). Furthermore, some sections of the site haven’t been updated yet, and navigation might look odd. These include the seat selector, and old schedule archives. As the old schedule archive comprise roughly 1,400 pages (that’s 7 seasons at roughly 200 updates per season), I might just leave them alone and go forward – need to think about that, as updating all those pages will be a boatload of work, and the old schedule archives aren’t looked at very much at all anyway.
Another reason for this is that I’ve been having some serious problems getting Google to crawl my site since I went to rangerfans.com from rangers.siegler.net, and according to docs at Google, this should help.
Finally, now that I’ve removed the black menu on the left, I find tha an all white background is somewhat harsh on my eyes. It’s like the black that was there before was a nice contrast, keeping all the white in check. I’ll probably need to play further and pick a new background colour instead of all white.
Do you have any thoughts on this? Anyone even reading this site anymore? :)

Soriano loses arbitration

Posted by Joe Siegler on February 10, 2006 at 11:24 am

From the “I really feel sorry for THAT” department, Alfonso Soriano lost his arbitration case with the Nationals, and will get ONLY $10 million instead of the $12 he asked for. That’s a record arbitration award anyway, beating the $8.2 that Andrew Jones of the Braves got in 2001.

G1: Rangers beat Red Sox 15-0 to start 2006 season

Posted by Joe Siegler on February 9, 2006 at 10:52 am

I will have my commentary on this game posted shortly, but wasn’t that a great win to start the season? Complete game shutout by Kevin Milwood. A Grand Slam from each side of the plate for Mark Teixeira. Great start to the season! Here we come, AL West title!

(For those of you who don’t regularly read my site and seeing this on an RSS feed or something, I’m working up a new publishing template for the 2006 season for my site, and needed a placeholder, – this is of course a fictional update.)

Here is the remainder of my coverage for this game:

Yeah, I’m still alive

Posted by Joe Siegler on February 8, 2006 at 1:27 pm

Yes, I’m still here. I have been paying attention to the transactions and news since my last update. I’ve just been taking a break until Spring Training actually starts.
I’ll start up with regular updates again at that point.
You might also see some odd posts in the next few days, as I’m trying to work out the formatting for the 2006 season, as I want to move my game updates into the software that I’m doing the rest of the site in.

About Site

This is a Texas Rangers fan site run by Joe Siegler. From 1999 through 2013 I used to do daily game updates, but got burnt out on that and stopped.

The site lives on as my favorite section to update I’m still very interested in. That is the Uniform Number history pages, which I’m quite proud of. Plus Ill write the odd article here and there.

I mostly spend my time in this Facebook group talking about the Rangers these days.

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a line.
