Anyway, it's that time of the month again where I have to remove a few more blogs due to six months of inactivity. By now, you know how this works. I'll link them on here so that you can all see what they were about, and at least give them one last shot at recognition. The Sports Card Blogroll sadly says goodbye to:
- The Topps Card Blog (no, not mine, but a guy who was going to talk about Heritage cards)
- MLB Collector
- Get High on Hockey
- 1978 Topps Baseball - 78 Topps Cards (from the writer of the HOF 88 Topps Cards)
- Boston Red Sox - Green Monster
- Adrian Peterson - SCU Presents: The All Day Highlight Reel (Gellman's attempt at a player blog seems to have been shelved)
Sincerely,
JayBee Anama

Seem to me that it comes in waves. For every 10 new blogs, only one or two actually stick around. A lot of people like the idea of a blog, and they write their first entry all excited with ramblings of what they're going to be writing about... and that's it.
Some times people just fail to realize how time consuming it can be, and that's perfectly fine. Other times I think people just fail to plan things out and don't have as much material as they'd thought. Then, they get discouraged when they're not immediately getting hundreds of hits per day. It takes time! And if you think you're going to make money out of this, you may as well not even start. Keep it a hobby and you'll be fine!
Either way, I'd much prefer those 10 new ones only to see them dissipate than nothing new at all.
A few you could add, most fairly new (see, we're not dying!), some not:

Thanks!
Thanks for mention, night owl!
I try to keep The Collectiholic updated at least once a week. I have tons of stuff to post, but don't want to have it distract me from my main blog devoted to the Astros.
I agree with Joe S. I believe too many people lose interest if they are not getting a lot of hits and it hurts thier ego. Sure, comments and such are great but to me posting a favorite card are doing the extra research on a player (even though their might not be much on a particular player) makes it all worth it. I'm having fun...and that's all that matters!
Thanks for the recommendation Night Owl. The blog postings do seem to come in waves. I'm really glad to find out about the blog roll, now I'll have a lot more blogs to read.
EX-MT is now open for business.
