Assuming from your avatar that you are part of that league, can you shed light on to what the differences between what you have on your page and what OOTP has? Is it a different set of component files?

It's debatable as to whether you're missing much, but you can't see the video? Are you perhaps using the Firefox extension NoScript? That could explain it; you'd need to allow jibjab.com to be able to see it. At any rate, here's a direct link to the video on JibJab.

Through the use of tokens, the text of the article would be highly customized.

Delayed dola (it's like a delayed steal, only better...)

Imagine that you could push a button, and magically create a story about a baseball game. That’s what the Stats Monkey system does. Given information commonly available online about many games — the box score and the play-by-play — the system automatically generates the text of a story about that game that captures the overall dynamic of the game and highlights the key plays and key players. The story includes an appropriate headline and a photo of the most important player in the game.
