Opponent Message Board Links are up

[Brad]

Just wanted to make all aware...

Also, please, when you visit other boards - provide a link back here so they know where you came from.  A simple link back to the TheBullsPen.com may lead to informative posts and debates as well as attract some new Bulls fans.

And, don't forget these two links:

Big East Links:  Full Page providing official site links, newspaper links, and message board links for all Big East teams - football and basketball.

2006 Schedule:  Some more updating done today, but more to do tonight - the schedule has start times, TV exposure, newspaper links, and message board links.

FIU has another site at:

And thanx for the newspaper links ...

STAMPEDE !!!

Also, is there a place you can put the link that RTB started a thread on ... for Big east visiting teams ... seems like a great site.

I have added RTB's Big East visitor link to the Big East Sites Page - which will be renamed to Big East Links.

I want to thank people for offering other sites for me to post.  I decided to post only one site for each team this year (on TheBullsPen.com - every link known for Big East sites are on the Big East Page) and this is how it was done:

Site listing priority:

1)  Independent site

Since we are an independent site, I feel it natural to support other independent site  - help to build their traffic as they would likey do with us - some already do.  When I cam across independent sites that lacked decent traffic, they were passed over.

2)  Rivals or Scout

If no worthy independent site was found, I linked to the most active Rivals or Scout board.  I determined this via a highly scientific method of taking a quick glance at each page.  I played no favorites and posted what I thought would be the best visit for TheBullsPen.com members.

I am open to changing the links should there be a recommendation.  

Furthermore, if I have left any good links off of the Big East page, please send me an email and I will add your recommendation.

^^ Other than the Pitt game.  All Big East Games of the Week kickoff at Noon.  USF has FOUR games (U Conn, 'Cuse, L'ville, and WVU) that could be added to the Pitt game as a GOTW.
