In 2007 a friend was trying to convince me to join SA and showed me the "Could an unarmed man defeat a gorilla in hand to hand combat" thread. Dozens upon dozens of pages of heated debate on the topic. I got in near the ground floor and never looked back.

i remember when the "airplane on a treadmill" thread went to like 600 pages and spawned numerous death threats.

The majority of my 30 posts here since 2011 are inquiries into whether or not some average to above average starter is an NFL Caliber QB

still the best TFF meme ever, and my first ever GDT was a classic Romo choke job on the 10th anniversary of 9/11 (complete with awful snap and crazy 4th quarter comeback), and this was around what I consider "peak Romo" - he was at his most underappreciated at this time, and the "ROMO WONT WIN THE BIG GAME" narrative had really taken off making for some pretty hilarious material.

IS JOE FLACCO AN NFL CALIBER QB?
ROMO CAN'T WIN THE BIG GAME
IS ELI MANNING ELITE?

My first TFF post I think was in 2010 when there was a discussion about Belichick and someone said there should be a version of Johnny Fiveaces with him

I was bored at work so I did one in Photoshop and everyone was all YES! and LOL! and then immediately someone else posted a better one and mine was forgotten and that was a sign that I would have a forgettable TFF posting career

My first TFF post was a rivals pun about the patriots playing the giants in 2011 and how they would get revenge for 18-1. It was my only probation until 2016 when I got a second for some dumb mod challenge in gbs that happened after I posted in the thread and everyone got 6.

Then they go and lose the super bowl again just to really make that post bad.

I still have fond memories of Fancy rear end Ho's "THERE IS ONLY ONE TEAM IN NEW YORK AND IT IS THE BUFFALO BILLS" posts during that brief period when the Bills actually looked startlingly competent to start the season.

It was a shame the Bills turned out to be the Bills.

I've been posted on SA a good long time, don't remember when I started posting in SAS (although I do remember my screen name at the time was my real name), but I do have fond memories of that guy who had to carry out his Toxx praising either the Seahawks or 49ers for 600 posts. He made it to 387 and a mod told him he'd done enough.

One thing I have noticed over the past decade plus is that there's far less discussion of actual news over the past like five seasons. Usually people will make 2-3 comments on a news article and then resume general chitchat. Used to be you'd get pages of discussion and additional sources.

I don't think the division threads are helping this any. Did you guys know Dorial Green-Beckham was cut recently?

Yeah, this is definitely true. I'm not sure it's necessarily a bad thing and it's probably part of the increasing insularity of the forums in general. On the other hand, I've increasingly turned to other sources for NFL analysis.

I started lurking to mine TFF for goonlulz, but discovered that several of my old compadres from V2 posted here. Stayed because I was outraged by the weird posting environment wherein you would get probated for being positive about your favorite team.

Funny thing is that even tho some of you have posted some really personal things over the years, nothing ever struck me as anything fyad needed to know until parm's meltdown over Tyreek Hill.

Even then, his rage quit was so personally satisfying to me, I left alone. Turns out I like you nerds

I tried to post in FYAD once but it turned out I'm not funny

I did spend a depressing amount of time posting in Helldump back in the day though

My first offseason as a regular poster in the football threads was the Mario Williams draft :shobon:

I think this is a side effect of people here realizing how little we know and how 90% of the stories this time of year are meaningless.

This. Right now I think Nola.com is just doing a countdown of the 20 best Saints on the team now. No real NFL news for a couple of weeks until training camp.

I take that back: actual news: Saints players are really impressed by Adrian Peterson. Think he's still got it.

Also: Ted Ginn is still fast. No word on his hands status.
