A big thank you!

I wanted to take a moment to thank several folks that have been really supportive in our blogging endeavor but first I think I should thank Mergz for agreeing to do this.

I began blogging about a year and half ago and I now have several blogs about varied subjects. But before I was a blogger I frequented Gator message boards. And it was on one particular Gator board that I began to read Mergz' insightful thoughts. I don't know why it took so long for me to realize that we should start a Gator blog but the realization finally hit me like a ton of bricks. It hasn't been disappointing. I'm glad we went with the name Mergz suggested instead of the one I had thought of. I think it's unique.

The blog has really gained traction even though it's only been around since October 11th, and for that we need to thank the following people:

All of the members and moderators at Zook Free Zone for allowing us to shamelessly plug this blog and giving us our built-in audience.

Orson and Co. at Every Day Should Be Saturday for putting us his blogroll even though we were brand new.

Ryan Ferguson from AOL's Florida Fanhouse who's been a big cheerleader for us.

Keltic Gator and the gang (including Ryan Ferguson again) at Orange and Blue Hue.

SMQ at Sunday Morning Quarterback

Senator Blutarski from Get the Picture

GatorMark at Swampball

The reader's at Mudlizard's Virtual Swamp

The readers at the Swamp Gas forums

All of you who stop by and read our stuff, especially those of you who leave comments. Good, bad, or indifferent comments always make us feel like we are doing something. I'm sure I left some people out.

So as Mergz and I get ready to leave for Glendale we just wanted to say thank you!
