    The only problem that I have with these lists is not in the content, but in the execution. Why do I have to check World Hoops blog every day for the next 10 days to get the whole list? It's a lot better when the list is all at once. Maybe you could compile them into one post at the end? Usually, I end up seeing only 2 or 3 out of the 10.

      Yeah, but that post would be too long.  This one was 4 pargraphs.  If that's the average, that's 40 paragraphs of text for one post.  People would complain about how long it is.

No that does not get old AT ALL). ...
