Ah, OK. This happens when there are postings in the feed which are older
than the expiry-time. I think this can be considered a bug, but not in
rss-blogs but in sb-rss.el itself. I will have to take this to the
emacs-w3m mailing list.

For now, you can circumvent this problem by either not deleting/expiring
the articles (just mark them as read) or by setting a large expiry time
on the group. 

For doing the latter, completely delete the group (with 'C-u G DEL'),
restart Gnus and create it anew. Then do 'G p' on the group and set

((expiry-time . 300))
