I may be 'Clue'-less, but I'll say:

scarletngrey, I'd have to say if you said something obnoxious, you deserved it, but that's not really your posting style. Lemme guess, you said something, a couple people took it out of context, built a straw man, destroyed it, beat their chests about it, called you an "idoit", and when you tried to defend yourself, you get banned.
Typical. It's a good board if you feel like putting up with a bunch of bull[censored] and don't mind the cliquishness. It's generally very hostile in nature, and you have to have some thick skin. There are many posters that are very obsessed with with the aggies, which I still can't understand. I don't think that site is very representative of what visitors on gameday experience, so don't worry.
I shouldn't be too hard on it though. There are some very knowledgable posters over there and it's generally well run.
But for a site that's a lot more friendly to guests filled with mostly with folks who just like to talk football, try www.burntorangefanzone.com |

I have been banned over there a few times myself, they have an itchy trigger finger. It's just a Vince Young lovefest over there anyway.

Off topic, but I'm curious.
Say Troy Smith is from Cleveland (or Cincinnatti if you're a Bengals fan). The locals love him, and he loves his hometown. "Local boy done good" and all that. Say he goes on to have an unbelievable season, wins the Heisman trophy, and leads OSU to a MNC. The media goes nuts, saying he should be a top 5 pick, if not the top pick due to his obvious talent and valuable intagibles. Also assume the Browns/Bengals had a horrible season (in part due to poor QB play.... Browns fans can probably imagine with Dilfer at QB, and pretend Aaron Brooks is the QB for the Bengals if they're your team) and have the #1 draft pick in 2007.
Now, say the Browns/Bengals select Adrian Peterson with the #1 pick, despite the entire city of Cleveland/Cinci begging for Smith. Also assume the Bengals/Browns have much more glaring needs other than running back, even though AP is obviously a very special player.
As a Browns/Bengals fan, are you [censored]ed? |

there are plenty of bengal fans that love the bucks, but brown fans almost always love the bucks... so I'd use cleveland in your example. I think VY is an even bigger example than TS could be (despite becoming OSU's greatest QB if that comes true), simply b/c he took the Texas program to the next level. Troy will be continuing what Krenzel started.
I'll let the brownies chime in (I spend my non-buckeye moments thinking of santana going deep  ).
