This has happened before.  Maybe in 2005 (?) the original site name; brewerfan.com, expired and was immediately snagged by some internet vulture and held for ransom.

We considered passing the hat to pay the ransom, or changing the name.  That's the day brewerfan.net was born.

Ah, so that's how that happened. I knew there was a switch but never knew why.
