Your thoughts: Game threads

There's still a month left before the start of the season, but I figured I would throw this out there now.  I'd appreciate as many responses as possible, even from the lurkers, as I'd like to know exactly what constitutes site improvement.

(Here's where to log in, and here's where to register, if it makes it easier.  C'mon, you know you wanna.)

Question: How much interest would you have in live game threads?

Background:  The platform on which this site runs offers forums that would be an effective medium for running commentary on a ballgame. I haven't activated them for a few reasons, but as I'm re-evaluating the way I add to State of the Sox this time around, I wouldn't mind adding game threads/chatter to the mix if there's a demand for it.

That's a key "if," though, as I'd have to add customizing and troubleshooting the forums to the sizable list of site projects I have targeted for completion by the start of April.  Considering Sox Machine is a one-man operation and I'm by no means a tech wizard, I'd like to have some idea of how popular this feature would be before delving into it.

Any and all input is welcomed.

That is all.
