    think about this, suppose you added a little content?
    I am not suggesting your information isn’t solid, however what if you added something that grabbed
    a person’s attention? I mean Guthrie boys track claims another championship | Guthrie Sports
    Page is kinda plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create article headlines to grab people
    to open the links. You might try adding a video or a pic or two to grab people excited about what
    you’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your blog a little
    bit more interesting.
