Hah good post. Some people prefer forums and some prefer social networking sites and others prefer major news outlets. Blogging is slowly growing and starting to make an impact.
My online audience couldn’t fill a dugout, but this is a great post Gyutae. I wonder how many of those writers take a moment to visualize those numbers before they hit ‘publish’.
Awesome post Gyutae! Staples Center….what is that?
Lol, shhh!
4 coaches and a minivan….
Great post!
School Bus - 43 capacity (plus driver, 44)

Never really thought of it that way.
That was a really awesome post. Creative for sure!
Great post! To compare my audience isn’t big enough to fill up seats at the bar of Applebee’s, but I’m working on it.
Lol… great analogy Gyutae,
