0 Subject: Hip Check v2005 - GuruPatron Bonus Tool

Posted by: RecycledSpinalFluid

Since I still owe Tosh some coffee...from three years ago...its time for the tri-annual update of HipCheck for baseball...

With a rash of injuries to my players, I realized what a pain it is to lookup data on players at all the different sites. I wished there was an easy way to say "Open all pages related to Joe Schmoe", click a button and BLAM! There they are. Well, here is what I came up with. Definitely just a beginning point, but better than nothing.

Some low-down:
0.) This is only operational if you are a GuruPatron. This is designed to be a bonus for their financial support of Guru's fabulous site.

1.) The ALL will open up all the possible pages for the specific player (the individual check boxes do not get selected).

2.) If you are running on a dialup, this might be slightly painful. A lot of simultaneous pages loads at one time may cause some to not load.

3.) Popup blockers might not like this, especially when using the ALL selection.

I think that is about it.

Good Luck.

If there isn't an associated page, it doesn't do anything. Also, I have not re-verified all the "local press" links, so if they don't work or there is a better one, let me know.

How do you check on gurupatron status? I'm a patron but it doesn't work.

Use the GuruPatron Validation link in the second dropdown menu. From there, you can go to the page that allows you to reset your ID.
