Thank goodness for this board. Single-team boards are the worst

Took a little time to lurk on Tiger Rant, TexAgs, and SurlyHorns today.

Without other programs to keep you in check, these boards dedicated to a single team are just delusional fapfests. Not all of them, but far too many threads are like a Trekkie convention for keyboard jocks.

Not even trolling here. I like the back and forth here, and can put up with the ones who take it WAAAAY too seriously because they get usually get called out here.

You people...(sniff)...are my people.

(Except for the assholes).

You make a good point but when is the last time people have had a legit discussion here? It’s just rampant trolling

I’ve only been here for about 4 years, so not much history to lean on. There is a good bit of that, but most of it I see as the ribbing buddies give each other. As I said, some take it way too personally, but they are outliers.

I do see some actual football discussion, but you do have to pick through the can sometimes. Only so much in-depth stuff you can expect during the week, though.

Plus, when you do actually talk about the performance of the teams, some fan bases (the ones in yellow) get really pissy these days.

It took me a while, but I much rather this board now over Tiger Rant even though this board is a troll fest. The minimal amount of rational discussion is better here than the dillusion over there.

Sure it is. They're using rock salt instead of lotion.

Opposite side of the same coin. Still a function of conversational inbreeding (or “constructive interference”).

I think Tiger Rant holds a pretty good balance overall.

Much more likely to find actual discussion on team boards. That used to occasionally finds its way here before it was trolling non-stop.

You can have a good discussion here outside of the Big 7. I have learned a lot about SEC programs on this forum.

Joined this summer. Highly entertained and love the broad representation.

And to be honest, I'm not really looking for a serious discussion. I don't claim to be a football guru, have a demanding job and come here for a mental break and a laugh.

I guess. Ever since the UGA invasion back in 2017 this place just hasn’t really been the same. This account is only 2 years old but I’ve been here for longer. The peak was 2014 when State and Ole Miss were really good and it’s kind of just been in TDecline ever since
