Russo’s Rants is moving

Posted on October 19th, 2009 – 3:24 PM

We’re moving from one blog platform to another.

The new URL’s are

www.startribune.com/russo 

or

www.startribune.com/blogs/russo

If you have Russo’s Rants on your RSS feed, you’ll need to update it with the current url. One other change is - you’ll need to register with StarTribune.com to make comments. It’s quick and painless (and helps keep out spam, and certain multiple personalities to use one identity.)

If you’re looking for any archived posts from the last several years just click above on Russo’s Rants Archives and you can search the old blog.

It’s quite annoying when you can’t use the same username you’ve been using all along.

Agreed.

Why is it that you can’t use the same username? I haven’t tried to comment on Access Vikings.

Look at it this way: Call it the Mr. Know It All rule…one identity per person.

That is true Russo… but we are all so used to this format. It is super easy to follow a flow of conversation on here. Oh well… adjustment period here I come…

Russo — is it one identity per computer or per email address?

Don’t give any trolls any ideas, ATx’s!

Hey, I’m just trying to keep the identity I have. Mr. ATX over there is not fond of (a) sharing the computer, particularly during games, and (b) changing all of the required fields (particularly e-mail address) when he posts right after me. I foresee confusion…

I foresee confusion…

Indeed… but remember, I am one of the sane ones… someone said so early today!

I have only checked it out in bits but even the Vikings blog posts don’t seem to get a lot of comments because there is no way to carry out a discussion in that format. Although Russo’s tweets will keep me up to date on his coverage of the team, it sadly looks like the day has come to find a new place to chat :(

Speaking of tweets: Russostrib Wild captain named Tuesday. Has to be one of two forwards, Koivu or Brunette.

AustinTXwildfan says:

At this juncture I kinda hope it’s Bruno. Koivu just hasn’t had “it” so far. Maybe slapping the C on his chest could give him a confidence booster though. really you can’t go wrong either way.

I think folks forgot that Boston owns Toronto’s 2010 and 2011 1st round picks. That is why I said that Boston is in it for the long haul.

Alas, the dreaded day hath come. :(

sunshine says:

I think it should be Bruno, too but I think Richards will go with the safe bet and pick Koivu.

Bruno is not an out of the box pick but the fans expect the Captain to be Koivu.

Really sunshine?

The “C” is up to TR not the fan’s sunshine.

Why is it that you can’t use the same username?

The username has to be all lower case, no punctuation, no spaces, 6-12 characters long

so The Stranger is out (space). Wafer is out (only 5 letters), voiceofreason is out (too long). thestranger was taken apparently, as was stranger.

waferthin is alls I got left.

Can’t for the life of me find the RSS feed link on the new blog. Then again, I haven’t had enough coffee yet this morning.
