Same here! It was so restricted with posts being deleted for "no reason!" I got tired of it and just didn't comment on tennis for months! Now they're going away! I won't miss it! Hopefully we can have some serious dialogue here without the threat of being banned! I like to hark back to earlier times, the 80's for instance, and I was punished for living in the past! That should be my purgative, esp. if players like Martina Navratilova are being maligned and overlooked as if they didn't play or had inferior competition! I just don't find the tennis as entertaining with most players just bashing the ball mindlessly with no real strategy! There are exceptions like Federer & Gasquet for the men and Radwanska and Hingis for the ladies, but Hingis will only be playing doubles from what I understand!

They shut down the other place approx 4 hrs ago. Up until an hour ago I could create new posts but could not refresh the main page by clicking on the 'tennis' link. Would auto direct to a standard ESPN.go page.

I agree about mindless ball bashing with brute strength a lot of athleticism and modern equipment. This is not tennis IMO.

Welcome ESPNers. A few CBS posters are here as well. Many of them did not make it unfortunately.

Hopefully this board picks up a bit. My fingers are getting tired, LOL.

I used to post on cbssportsline a long time ago before they closed it then moved in 2001 to ESPN forum.

I have had threads deleted that reached 100+ replies after I creates it.
I have seen posts vanishing like a magic effect right before my eyes.
I have been banned like 11 times (sometimes valid reasons but mostly out of prejudice because I did not worship certain players or bow down to certain bigot posters)
I have been personally attacked out of the blue by just being there.

Yeah that board was a nuthouse being run by nuts.

Fed may just be experimenting with 250 tournaments like Hamburg and Gstaad but I think he should give the 93 sqinch Blade or a 95 sqinch frame a try. Heck, Wilson will just custom make him one if he wanted and give it a new line name for the mass.

I'm not a big poster, but this has to be better than ESPN.

Hope to see lots of you here.

Be aware, after you get approved for this site, it takes a little while before they approve you to start threads (24 hours for me), but you can post in any thread that's already up.

Good night, Serena just won Best Female Athlete on ESPYS.:nod: Good to be on the board.

It was gone yesterday! Good riddance to bad rubbish! You weren't allowed to express yourself there with Williams' and Nadal sycophants that didn't allow their reputations to be besmirch! Those same losers railed against Henin and Hingis who aren't even playing on the tour! I won't miss it at all or the people!

Some of the posters there claimed to be "avid fans" but border on obsessive behavior.

For the most part I found a majority of the posters to be knowledgeable tennis fans.
