EDIT (Grady, 9:20 p.m.): Speaking of site issues, I accidentally deleted Nuss' post while cleaning out some of my outdated drafts. Thanks to Google Cache, I can bring it back to you in its entirety:
SBN is experiencing some issues sitewide today -- I experienced some of it when CougCenter wouldn't load a bit ago -- and here's the official word from our people:
We have identified the issue causing the slowdown and taken action to resolve the slow load times. However, we have not yet resolved the core problem. Currently the network is up and performing at normal levels, but we are continuing to work on the underlying issue. As we make progress, we'll keep you updated.
So in other words ... we're sorry, and thanks for your patience.
