While not posting as much, I still read quite often and I just don't see much of the entertainment that was once here about 6-12 months ago. Blame it on baseball if you will, but I enjoyed all of the posts during the summer last year. Is it sports talk radio that's been a bit boring as well this summer which has seen a slow down in posts on the MJH section? Or are we missing some of the old timers that made this fun? Which Hero do we need back? |

For some reason, my option of Mr. Pickles is not on there. While I wouldn't vote for him, I figured some would. |

I feel like this board is like wrestling. Was really good a few years back when the Monday Night Wars existed. Not as much talent top to bottom, but the top talent was by far the best group ever in the business. now there's a lot of talent out there, but no one knows to do with all of it and somehow guys like Mao (great Kahli) and andyROONEY (Lashley) get all the air time from what I know. |

This board is like the stock market. You have rallies and corrections. Right now we are trading in a range after the last correction of early May. Trading ranges can be boring but you can still make money from them. I think we are poised for a nice mid-summer rally. |

I'll take the fall, Dude. Those guys were some bad dudes, dude. I think that the wear of posting during the day has really worn down a lot of the posters. Posters on other message boards wait until night. I also think that posting during the day is easier for the brothers and latino posters. Edit: -signed Dusty Baker. |

I'm not sure how I feel about being on that list. I'm also not sure how I feel about not winning. I'm also not sure what it all means exactly. |

You still bring it Dr., but you're more in a Roger Clemens form now. You don't show uo until late May or June, you requested that private jet from bigfan which I thought was odd, you don't come out to the bars after a day's worth of work and always go back to your family. You should play for the White Sox. Just call me Brian Anderson or Kyle Farnsworth. |

Coach Crapowski, that is an amazing idea. You are really a great poster with many great ideas. Mustang Rob was once the top of the list of people I would like to have children with, but you have now gone and put yourself on my top 5 list. |

it's better than having 9 pages of angry threads. sports sucks ass right now. i have zero opinion on any of it. the three things that interest me currently are: how is tiger doing? where did jeff gordon finish? is there any MMA on t.v.? other than that...i could give a shit unless i'm at the baseball games or hanging with the CSFMB crew. which, is why you get dumbass threads about nothing started by me. |

You have it all wrong ryan. The board lights up when we have a well intentioned but slightly off the wall NEW poster. The new poster gets to play the part of the pinata at a party that lasts about a month. It's always a good time. |

Well, all you need to do is start a thread about drunk driving, speeding, seat belt laws, or cops in general |

I don't think it's the fact that certain people are missing here as much as the subject matter. You cited the MJH board as lacking content these days. Perhaps it's because some of us aren't listening as much to shows that revolve so much around baseball. I still listen, but after about 15 minutes of groundhog baseball radio, I'm often gone to more diverse sports programming. I'm not an NBA or hockey fan by any means, but those sports' post-seasons are far more interesting to me than local baseball in the middle of a 6 month season The hosts in this town are heavily consumed with baseball and focus more on pre-season baseball, for example, than they do on post-season hoops. Hey it works for them I guess, but if you consider this board as a microcosm of the general listening population, many on this board apparently don't care nearly as much about baseball as the hosts do. And the postings on the board might reflect that. How many guys here really have the passion for baseball that they listen to these shows as much every day as they do during football or basketball seasons? People won't post as many comments about a show if they are not listening as much. Summer on the radio in this town is for the baseball nuts. We need the baseball guys like Anthony and Suckers Playground to kick their postings up a notch and let those of us who aren't listening regularly to know what new and interesting things have been said. Also, If you think the board has cooled down in the other areas outside the show threads, then maybe it's other things that are working against the board. Maybe the rise of Mao has had a chilling effect on the board. Communists often have that effect on people. |

This board will get better during football season. I think it's a combination of things...radio shows not as good, posters leaving, sports aren't great right now, too many trolly people, etc. |

However, I do not look to this board for serious baseball discussion. I appreciate it when it occurs, but there are other sites that meet that need much better. I come here more for general topics. |

Sorry lads, but Mr.Pickles was the best poster ever to grace this place, and the collection of wet farts left in Mr.Pickles wake is now apparent, in style and quality. Mr.Pickles thinks you spoiled manhood milkshakes should begin huffing gym socks, or in some cases, sweaty male gym shorts. Embarrassing!!! |
