Dont worry about it. We dont even need to go there. Its actually not just one, there are a couple, but I dont see them wanting to come over here anyway. Oh, one more thing, though. Balls actually being cool with Tone coming over is asinine, cause if he did we would simply be a repeat of the old board.

Bottom line is, it's not important. Tom has his reasons, I have mine. And there is no talent being kept down. It's a message board, not a place to try to improve your status by shitting on people or a place to show how many stupid pictures you can find. Hopefully, the fact that people joined today shows how they feel. No one has to choose one board over the other. Hopefully this board will be an alternative.

My posts will probably still annoy you, but I have my old SN back, whoo hoo!
Will there be a fantasy baseball forum over here for session standings and what have you? I guess it doen't really matter, because if Frost can't come over here, then we can't do all league business here anyway.
As for the color scheme, I'm not a fan of the teal, but the lighter colors are a little less SCREAMING "I'm on an obviously not work-related website."

Balls is still running the fantasy section on the old board. But I think he has limited it to just posting the standings daily. There wont be any fantasy stuff on here, especially with the season just about over. As for the colors, yeah, the teal should change. All in due time.

Wasn't your birthday a month ago? Yes, it was july 30th. I didn't realize Tom and I are one year and 6 days apart in age. He's old.

Tom is so old, that on the game shows he watched as a kid, the grand prize was fire.

Speaking of that, I want a birthday thread of my own too. I'm on the same day as Midget Mike but all I get is Tom posting pics of Hogan on my myspace. Well that's not all tue, Evan did post a pic of Maria Sharapova too, my future bride starting monday when I go to the US Open and get her number.

I vote *no* to Mac as he's nothing but a troll, refusing to engage in any meaningful baseball (or other topic) discussion in lieu of taunts, threats, slurs, posturing, and Red Sox fan clichés. Leave him to message boards where "getting over" on others and "pwning" are encouraged. Any Red Sox (or other team) fan that wishes to chat is fine by me, but he has no interest in that.

He he he... she said NUTS. I actually like Red Sox fans... I feel bad for them, and I'm apparently not the only altruistic aquarian with such feelings... some people feel so bad for them, they give them all our beer...

There really isn't anything lamer than a word filter. Come on, we're all grownups here.

You make a pretty decent argument about Mac. I don't know how others feel about it. I loosened the filter restriction. Domi's right. We're all adults here.
Only the N word is filtered now. If Tom wants to add some more words, I'm cool with that, but I have no problem with cursing. I think the only real issue is giant curses that show up at work, and we'll delete posts like that.
Anything that will cause trouble with your job will be deleted.

I have no problem with curses making cameo appearances on here. The word filter was not turned on conciously, it was like that when we came aboard. Its not my intention to turn this into a Romper Room sort of place. Carry on.

I was on Romper Room as a kid. With Miss Louise I believe. Got to eat a cookie and tell the world I went to bed at 7:30.

They weren't allowed to say "Balls" on Romper Room?

Didn't pay too much attention to Romper Room but I knew that something just didn't seem right with the Magic Garden.

Yeah, those two were a little busy playing with their "chuckle patches" if you get my drift.
