Been that way for the 11 years I've been on here
The funny part is the people that say the "good posters" got run off
It's no different now than it was in 2005
Wrong, it is lot different.
the YMT group has run things defacto for some time now.
Bullshtt
While this point can be argued from both sides, the number of "old school" posters (jeb, jms, etc.) hardly ever post here anymore. We used to have a lot of guys & gals that brought real substance to the board. They "seemingly" have been run off by a proliferation of goofballs. At least, that's what it seems like to me.
Folks see things the way they want to sometimes though.
Yes, you do. Errr...I mean, yes they do.

Whatever you say, amigo.
I recognize all kinds of posters have been "run" off.
I don't think it's ONLY the "good" posters.
I can see all sides of the argument without having to agree with it and my opinion is that to think the YMT crowd has run this place for a long time is pure bullshtt. I remember not too long ago when Pastner was still the head coach and there were "good" fans defending him and as it turns out, they were dead wrong...and folks were getting banned on both "sides".
If you think it's only Jeb and whoever who don't post here anymore, then you don't remember a lot of the old time posters.

Speaking of banning folks, the mods did finally get rid of Stammers. To me, that proves that moving things toward rational discussion is at least somewhere on the mod checklist.

Just fyi,tho, it was not Pastner some of us were defending.
To ceaselessly decry him was not helping our program overly much, imo.
But just for the record, I chose not to introduce myself in Vegas at the tournament. And Pastner was siting less than 15 feet from me all--- smiley in the pregame warmup.

I never got what was so great about Jeb. You should see some of his Twitter rants. As for JMS I think basketball's inept coach ran him off as much as anyone from YMT. I still find it interesting that YMT is continually bashed on here, even though it no longer exists, while another board that will go unmentioned is always cheered.
Like I've always said some folks have an agenda
