Remember when this forum discussed sports?

Those were the days.

1. Remember when sports were important and not mired in cheating?

[Captain Hilts]

2. Yes. There are too many personal threads to avoid now. nt

[Renew Deal]

4. And this is coming from a Mets fan

:evilgrin:

[Renew Deal]

3. That was so boring

:evilgrin:

The sports forum is a wasteland of personal attacks and fanboys.

[cboy4]

5. The sports forum ratings have never been higher.

6. The place is just inundated with a fewl people who listen too much sports talk radio

They try to bring the schtick here.

It's really east to figure out who it is.

Reminds of me when Republicans get high on Limbaugh, Oreilly, Severine and Hannity. They run off to message boards to spew the same flawed arguements and get frustrated when it doesn't stand up outside the bubble of radio. Instead of quitting while ahead they just fill up on more shit the next day to take another crack at it here.

For the most part I think many of us are still intereseted in talking about sports. Much what it posted is sports related and all in good fun.

7. No.

My memory doesn't go that far back.

8. I was going to post a thread like this, but the title was going to use the word "circle-jerk"

because that's exactly what this forum is turning into. First it was the S.F. - D.C. - Pitt. axis of mediocrity (or worse), but now I see it's taken a disturbing turn towards the New York area. Grow up people.

9. A disturbing turn towards the New York area

:rofl:

10. Hasn't Denver been noted as a hot-bed of mediocrity!!!1!!!

:rofl:

Have the Rockies won a World Series. I realize they don't have 55 YEARS OF FUTILITY!

11. Look friend, I make no bones about the Rockies

That's why I don't go around, as a Rockies fan (more or less) telling people their teams suck. The Rockies suck, and if they could skate, they'd suck on ice. Their management is awful and honestly, until they dump dealin' Dan O'Dowd, they deserve to suck. 2007 was fun times, but it was a freak of nature or a miracle depending on how you view the concept of an omnipotent power in the great beyond.

It's like the time the tiny Swedish kingdom schooled the Austrian Empire. Verily, 2007 was like our 1632. But yeah, at least I admit the Rockies have been downright shitty for a long time. The people I'm talking about (you know who you are) keep acting like there's nothing wrong with your bad hometown teams, and then launching attacks on teams that are pretty much equally bad. It's like a slap-fight between 98 pound weaklings. The Rockies might get a lot of sand kicked in their faces, but at least I'm staying on the sidelines while the other dweebs slap it out.

13. There's a certain clique over here.

Just like the Lounge.
