For months I've been slaving frantically away at the site rebuild I announced back in October. Since it's a complete rebuild, all of this time has been spent on constructing the foundation for this beast, and making sure it's a solid framework on which to build the site. It's actually been a fun challenge for me as a programmer, and you're gonna LOVE how much better the site's gonna be... but there hasn't exactly been a lot of sexy eye candy to show you.

Until now!

I'm entering the "let's see all the cool things I can do with the new technology platform" stage of this journey, and I'm finally able to share glimpses of some of them with you as I develop them. Teasers, if you will. I hope to find the time to be able to post these goodies for you more regularly going forward.

A more formal, exciting, higher-level announcement about this huge project is coming in the next few weeks, but for now, I'll leave you with this look at this brand new (upcoming) stats tab on the Your Team page:
