Madden talked about the board and how all of us are soft and not listening to the doctor as he's been cleared to play.

In other words, Madden reads the board.

He’s spiritfan.

Can anyone explain why media members even bother reading this stupid message board? Message boards are an outdated way to communicate, and there are only like 40 people that actually posit here. And really no one here posts anything of value (especially not this marsupial). I dont get why media members find this place compelling enough to post incognito or even come right out and say who they are.

Because there's a thread discussing them and they're all insecure?

Why do media members respond to challenging interactions on Twitter? It’s the same insecurity alluded to by ulf.

You’re not going to win a battle with the Stoolies. You’re just not. People keep saying it’s a “fad” that will “wear out” but Erika Nardini is a very smart businesswoman and the right person to lead the ship. And the talent at that site is top notch.

Barstool is somehow a bigger toilet than State College.

In my humble opinion about concussions. I don’t believe if you have one your brain is more likely to have another one, BUT I do believe some people are more susceptible to concussions because of the way they go about sports - ex Eric Lindros refusing to skate with his head up leaves him more likely to have his eggs scrambled.

Literally minutes after we were having that discussion on this board I left work. As soon as I started my car and turned the station he's talking with Bob about and says "Seriously, here's what these people on this message board are saying..."

I just laughed hard because I think we first mentioned that story at like what, 4:30? (FIX THE CLOCK) and by 5 o'clock he had read it lol.

Totally forgot about that. Some good gifts are out there. The cardboard Orpik still makes me giggle.

In regards to the "why do they come here?" Most likely an ego thing, but if I could change one thing, it'd be that someone reads this board and sees how awful the current fan format is with commercials and does something about it.

I don't remember who it was back at the old place (maybe MCM?) but Madden read someone's entire post on the air and presented it as his own ideas.

I wonder if the talent is truly bad, or the talent is good enough to establish a rhythm because of the commercial breaks. Nah I'm kidding, Pittsburgh Dad Jr. doesn't need more time to speak, he needs less. Load it up The Fan.

Also, the whole fighting with barstool thing is really stupid. It's gotten to the point where he just trolls, but nationality-reach wise, he's the blip on the radar in this case.

He did that to me way back in the day when I listed a bunch of stuff about what Rendell was saying about the new arena deal.
