are now in one of the helmets on the left, or was that always there? That's cheesey looking; me no likey. The revision to the M letter size is better, but either put the real banner's tag-line on the bottom or vertical justify the MGOBLOG. Meh, whatevs. I still voted for it over the "Bo-Centric" one (but of course).

Moving the 'M' on Minor's banner seals the deal.

clicking on Minor's banner fails to load full-size... I don't think Brian meant to link to his desktop: c:\Documents%20and%20Settings\Brian.EEK\Desktop\jason-minor-banner.jpg

The even "mgoblog" is perfect; I love that banner. Though I could do without the recent addition of the theme from the "yvgeni" banner.

is the Minor's isn't winning 18,481 to 0. Who are these people that insist on old coaches? Is the snowbird crowd haunting the pages of mgoblog?

... now is there any chance of getting Jason to center MGoBlog from top to bottom on the banner?

Is there a "mercy rule" in effect? It's not even close right now.

Oh man, can we just stop the fight? I don't want my banner getting hurt out there!

Well, I guess the only way to keep this even remotely close is to completely sell out.  You Yvengi fans may be interested in my new version... http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee219/UMTailgate/donhelfrichbanner2.jpg

@Barwis Effect: Just to let you know, I automatically read all of your posts in Barwis's voice in my head. @Helfy: Well played on the evil additions. Had me cracking up. And good work on the original.

WE ARE GOING TO BE A MACHINE.
