Have You Joined the Brieflines Google Group Yet?

Hi guys.

Just a friendly reminder to join the Google Group that is part of the online consortium of resources I manage (this blog and the archive site are the other parts).

"Why should I join?" you're probably thinking.

Well, I'm pleased to say that in eleven of twelve months since last October, there have been over 100 posts in the group (198 in FEB 2012). That's an average of a little over 3 brieflines pictures sent to your email address per day. Can you live without that briefiness?

One "small print" detail: you need to answer all questions (age, reason to join) before I'll approve your membership. Please attend to this. I'll not reject your membership but it will be in limbo until you provide this.

You can get to the group by clicking here.

See you in the group!

R.I.P. Sidelines: Brieflines Site V3.0

Welcome to V3.0 of the Brieflines Archive. Breaking news: the Sidelines page is dead!

But, don't be alarmed, brieflines fans.

I re-organized the brieflines site last night and this morning to accommodate the growth of non-tennis brieflines on the site. Ultimately, when I thought about how to reorganize the growth of the pages that were hierarchically under the sidelines section, the current system of page organization didn't make sense any more.

The largest growth in pictures and athletes is in the pages associated with football (international and American). As the number of athletes added grew, the potential for the sidelines section to become unwieldy increased. This is why I deleted the "sidelines" page on the brieflines site and added a page for each type of football. I also have left the option open to expand to other sports like track and field and cricket.

Now, I don't want to upset my international readers, but I did have to create uniquely named pages for international and American football. This means one first level page could be called "football" and the other would have to be called something else, to eliminate confusion. Thus, international football pages are ordered under:

sites.google.com/site/brflines/soccer

and American football pages are ordered under:

sites.google.com/site/brflines/football

You should not use the sidelines address anymore. You will get an error if you do. Here's a scheme of the old (v2.0) and new (v3.0) organization of the pages.

Do you like the new banner on the homepage? :) I also added a navigation bar on the right for quick(er) movement throughout the site.

Let me know if this is a thumbs up or a frowny face.

Cheers!

Stephane Robert

Good morning guys.

Sidelines: Laurent Koscielny

Good morning, all.

I added a new page on the brieflines site for French footballer, Laurent Koscielny.

I hope you enjoy the pics and see you here tomorrow.

Julien Benneteau

How I miss the good old days of the French briefsters.

I used to take it for granted that if it was a French player, they would be brieffing it under their tennis shorts. Now, not so much.

Players like Clement, Llodra, and one of my faves, Julien Benneteau have been converted to the dark side of the trunk.

But every once in a while, I'll still get a good shot of a briefline or two, like the one of Benneteau above.

And there's always Richy and Jo to make up for the lack of Frenchy lines :)

Enjoy!

Rainer Schuettler

Hey guys.

I added two new pics of Rainer Scheuttler, a retired German tennis player, to his page on the brieflines site.

I last added pictures in 2009, so it was about time.
