Why are we making excuses for these imbeciles? They obviously have not made any significant investment in redundancy. Just call it like it is.

I think the Blizzard of '96 really hampered their infrastructure. They simply haven't been able to recover.

I would not be surprised in the least to find out they've suffered a catastrophic data breach and have no way of recovering from it. This makes no sense at all. We'll find out tomorrow when it's still down and their excuse has to change again.

don't mess with timeform.....don't ask them "what are YOU gonna do about it?" "they ain't playin!" as they say on the streets.

I was warned by DRF there could be delays in the print edition for Friday.

DRF was somehow able to hit the streets with a timely print edition for us in SoCal.

It sure appears the issue with PPs and internet content is taking a backseat to the immediate concern of the printed page. Hopefully everything returns to normal soon and everybody can get back to their equine routine.
