Happy Friday to you all! There have been changes in the works for a little while here at SB Nation, and I have to be honest: they're kind of exciting. I can't get into too many details right now, but what I can show you is just an inch or three down down your screen.
Below is a message from SB Nation founder Tyler Bleszinski, teasing what's coming for us in the future. All I'll say is this: remember the changes we went through back in early 2008? When the site changed to its current incarnation from this? Well...the future is awesome my friends. Here's Tyler:
It’s with great pleasure that I unveil the first step in the next evolution of Twinkie Town. In the next month SB Nation will be undergoing a dramatic upgrade to our platform and our editorial process. There will be much more detail to come but for now, the new logo below is just a first taste of what is coming for Twinkie Town.
This is a small, but important sample of what is coming when our network undergoes its most exciting and radical transformation in the eight-year history of the company. A new visual identity here and across the network is only one step we are taking to unite our network of sites. United through individuality is the underlying theme of this project. You’ll notice that our team colors and the unique spirit of our individual community is maintained while making it clear to sports fans that each site is a part of the larger SB Nation network. We want everyone to know that they can find the same type of great writing, video and conversation that we offer here on all of our 300 plus sites. You can browse through all the new logos on a special page we put together at sbnation.com/united.
Our commitment to passionately follow our sports will never end. It’s what makes SB Nation a special place and that will only be enhanced by these new changes. In the meantime we’re setting up additions to our store so you can be sporting the latest and greatest before it even launches. Welcome to our future.

I really like our new logo. We retain our skyline. The baseball is right there. There's even a hint of the stadium there with the screen and the lights.
We'll share more when possible. Until then, enjoy your Friday and Stu will be here shortly with our regularly scheduled programming!
