Nice idea but most of us are gone by 4PM CST. If this thread is here tomorrow we will probably use it to see who all is over here. I think you will find that we are all decent posters and after two years for most of us we don't understand why we started getting banned by CBS. It had to be all the ESPN posters that invaded while ESPN board was down. Oh well, we will survive.

Thanks for the new site. The ex-CBS bunch is not too bad, Jesse. Love the "Dick Pic," but for reasons more similar to yours, I think. "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?"

A president said that. I can't believe it. But anyway, welcome to the board.

Here's my take. A good bunch of guys were on every weekday, and some other times as well. About 3 weeks ago, the ESPN boards went down, and a group of 8 to 10 came in and started talking trash. The "old-timers" gave it right back at 'em, and it deteroriated from there. Either a new ESPNer got upset, and ratted on an old-timer, or an old-timer got upset and did the same. Long story short, (too late) the board got 'watched', and a lot of posts would suddenly be deleted. If anything was said even remotely political or controversial, it just disappeared. No explinations. This continued after the ESPNers went back to their board after it was repaired. Either there was a moderator who loved getting his rocks off deleting messages, sometimes the whole board, b-ball topics and all, or someone hacked into the system and accomplished the same thing. I'm still not sure which. Glad for the switch. We're not that bad a bunch. heck, I'm an old liberal, and some of my best buds on the board are old arch conservatives. We were hurting no one. That help?

We will TRY to behave. South GA? AL- Benny, perhaps? Spent a Christmas there one year. Hot as heck. Have a good night, Mr. Tenn.

Cheezy, the swearing was usually only directed towards stupid F'ing newbies. We flamed them as best we could over there. But I see that doesn't happen here. Anyways, we are a kind and industrious people. I think we will be just fine.

Jesse and the other moderators! It will take us a little while to aclimate to the rules of this board, but we will.... For we are a noble band of basketball warriors from the hills of Tenna, Kentuck, the Carolinas and VA. Some of our horde migrated many many moons ago to the flatlands of Kansas and MO. There are some Yankees and even a couple of foreigners from New York and DC. We are led by our Queen Kimmieb and we worship the BB_girl, who alas is rarely with us anymore. We tried to replace her with the Indianachick, but she left us also....Poleon and Billswinners are our sages and SIUDancin was our elected President/Counsel until he too went missing. During the real basketball season we break into our various "tribes" and cheer mostly for UK, KU and the ACC except for the Dookies! LMAO -Poleon
