I've enjoyed watching this board grow and mature over its nearly five year existence. There have been many great threads out of the over 10,000 that have been started,and most of the outstanding early ones are likely forgotten now because of the sheer volume of new threads over time pushing them into therecent mists of historyand memory.
Three I like because of the sheer volume of posts and views are the Brian Leonard thread, the Craig Pickering thread, and the Tiger Woods thread.
The Leonard thread was begun in February of 2007 andcurrently has 1,122 posts -- more than the total for any single NFL team -- and is closing in on 50,000 views, the most of any thread.
The Pickering thread, begun over four years ago, currently has 910 posts and 41,881 views.
The Woods thread has 256 posts and 15,949 views; others besides the two mentioned above have more posts and views, butthe Woods threadhas remained active since October 15, 2004, the day the board was publicly launched. I don't think there are any other active threads from 2004.
There have been many threads memorable for their insight, humor, and occasionally for their combativeness. There is information and points of view on this site about the Caste System and about white athletes of the past and near-past that might for all intents and purposes be lost for good but for our attempts to memorialize them for the present and future.
Anyone have a favorite memorable thread?
