Upon logging onto Bleacher Report this morning, writer Steve Jankowski was notified that he was promoted to Analyst. The box stating what he has written about showed that he wrote more than 3,500 articles on Major League Baseball.

"I went from having written nine MLB articles to 3,500 overnight," Steve said. "I didn't know I could write so much in my sleep. I should try that more often."

Apparently the result of a glitch, the sight of such a large number still caused a bit of a chuckle for the newly-christened analyst.

"Thirty-five hundred articles, that's pretty impressive," he said with a laugh.

The page also showed him having written nearly 3,000 NHL articles, almost 300 White Sox articles, and just more than 400 humor articles—not including the one you are now reading.

A source close to the writer said he'll take the additional credit, but wouldn't be surprised if the glitch was fixed.

  I'm glad the engineering team found it humorous! And if it led to the fixing of the glitch, I'm glad I could help.

Actually someone stole your identity and wrote 3,000 first round Stanley Cup Playoff recaps last night.

Self-interviewing. It's a concept that's a little out of the box... but I think I like it Steve. I think I like it.

  I got lucky, you know. I'm not an easy person to schedule an interview with, but I was able to get in contact with myself, and get the interview done. I have to thank myself for making this possible.

  I think self-interviewing is something most people do anyway. They make up what people say...
  
  Very funny, Steve. I have around 3600 NFL articles, 3600 about the MLB, 2300 about the NBA, 1400 about college basketball, and 333 about the Twins alone.
  
  And the funny thing is, it says that I only have written 86 articles.
