Well we have come a long way. This marks our 100th post to the website since its conversion to a professional blog in August of 2007. I honestly had no idea what was the come of this website when it was started in early 2006, by two kids then barely in high school. True story. A story that I never formally revealed to the S2S audience.

Saturdays2Sundays was a pretty simple concept. We needed a creative name for a website that would do its best to predict the inexact science that is the N.F.L. draft. Since college football players play primarily on Saturdays, and professional football players mostly on Sundays, the name Saturdays2Sundays seemed original and catchy. We scrummed up some money, bought a domain name on Yahoo!, hired an aspiring graphic designer, and found free hosting services. This was all after we tested the waters on Freewebs.com.

The bold prediction in 2006 by one of our owners that Jay Cutler would be the best quarterback in the 2006 draft class still resonates in my mind. I have to admit I was skeptical at the time of this bold prediction, but this kind of stuff is what kept the website operating through these years. Our first 2010 mock draft is in the works, as we have decided to do away with the meaningless pre-playoff mock drafts.

That’s all for now. I’m definitely planning on at least another 100 posts, but we’ll see how it goes. Follow us on Twitter (@sat2sun).
