Doesn't exist on a fan forum. Everyone here has their own degree of homerism otherwise they wouldn't be a fan.

I like having all teams in one site(SECR). If I wanted team boards I could just go to Dawgrant,ITAT, VOLnation, etc. I don't want to go to twelve different sites, I prefer the one that involves all 12.

Info that would normally get posted and discussed on the SECR is now buried in hundreds of pages of recruiting post.


Yep. And I ain't got the time or inclination to read thru 100's of pages.

I really don't see what the big deal is. The people who don't like the SECr as it is now because of differing opinions will be able to talk amongst themselves on their homer boards, and the SECr can go back to the way it used to be. And Chicken can be the benefactor of all of it. If people can't control themselves, that's their issue, and they can be dealt with. It's not like these things don't evolve on their own.

Great job Chicken!

Do LSU fans get banned automatically for going to the Alabama page?

I understand. I'm just saying that maybe the fan that is always in the spotlight for a certain school may not make the best admin for that school's separate forum (if and when this happens). Someone needs to fly somewhat under the radar as an admin there that won't get to whacking/anchoring threads just because they don't agree with someone's opinion being posted.

I agree wholeheartedly.

Chicken has done a good job of figuring out who makes the best admins in the past, both with the TigerRant (which is what the little school sites will inevitably evolve into) and the SECr, OT, etc. I'm sure he knows what to look for.

I think so too....

Chicken has done a great job with his admin team and I know he will continue to do a good job with his team moving forward into this new venture. I guess I was just trying to give my opinon of what type of person I wouldn't want as an admin of my team's site...

Precisely. Those that post here, will still do so. But there will be other boards that they can go to, to talk more in depth about their teams, hopefully without the incessant flaming. I see it as a win/win all the way around. And if some can't control themselves on another teams "board", within the secrant.com, then they'll have only themselves to blame if banned.

I mean, yeah. Why wouldn't Chicken want to get as much business as possible? Old SEC ranters wouldn't leave because there's nowhere else to go like this website

I think team boards will go over smashingly when game threads are made in them. It got unbearable last year most times trying to sift through the flames. With a team board, it will probably make it alot more enjoyable.
