This site has always been up and down since I’ve been around and I’ve always wanted to see some consistency. I though about taking that site and bringing it back to life but two things held me back: I am only a Sixers fan. I don’t know much about the other teams so I would’ve needed plenty of other writers to cover all the teams. And then, I became editor of this site so my focus belongs here.

Well, today, is a good day. Section 215 is back up and running led by Tim Kelly. Our very own Emily Gruver is also going to be writing for the site too.

Now, there’s another site that covers the Sixers. So it’s Section 215, 76ers Digest, and of course The Sixer Sense. FanSided continues to grow. I think that perhaps S15 can finally become the booming site it used to be and be even better. They will be a leader in your number one sport for all Philly teams. Of course, I’ll always stand by The Sixer Sense being the ultimate 76ers news site. Congratulate Emily and show your support for Section 215!

Welp, here we go! Here’s the post from our first milestone

The Sixer Sense, as I write this, have a total social media following of 185. This is actually a combined number for The Sixer Sense and 76ers Digest (as I’ve said before, they are FanSided family). So, how can we get this site and 76ers Digest to 250 social media followers in just 22 days?

Well, the staff here is aware of what we are doing. Be prepared to be bombarded with “Follow us!” and “Like us!”. Plus, with the largest staff in the NBA division of FanSided, you can expect a lot of quality content. So, with that in mind, why bother with the social media?

Welp, for one thing, we do a lot of live tweeting during games. The Twitter account is connected to the Facebook page so you can still follow along there. I am working on getting live game updates on Google+. Pinterest is Pinterest.

If you follow just The Sixer Sense, you need to also be following 76ers Digest. In the near future, I’ll actually be putting a page up just for them so you get to know just who they are. You’ll want to follow them when I’m done with that thing.

Oh hey, even if you don’t do social media, we have plans to make this a real community blog. You may notice that in recent articles we, the staff, have been commenting on the post. We invite you to join us and talk about what you read. We value your opinion just as we hope you value what we’ve written for you in these posts.

I would like to thank you for sticking with us. We just keep growing and growing and it’s a big part because of you, the readers. Oh hey, by the way, you deserve a name. How’s this: Sensor. You’re a “Sensor of the Sixers!” So join us as we take this blog to another level!

Let’s shatter this Social Media milestone, Sensors!
