We had another crazy thread years ago with ~40k views. I think it was involving the Paterno case. I'll have to look for it


It may have been the Ryan Reynolds is gay thread on the WC, but that was made three days before we set the record for most users online. I'm too busy to look for it. I know it was record for most views at the time.

I think we had a "Tebow has herpes" thread that blew up.

Just wondering why so many people are searching for that today. Did someone air a Bear Bryant biography or something?

My guess is the UAB thing since it's supposedly linked to badmouthing Bear Bryant.

The Ryan Reynolds is gay thread has always gotten good traffic. Of course, they don't sign up but at least they stop by! :D

Wait a second. The racism is just that he chose not to recruit black players?

Guess I should just leave this thread quietly then. :dhd:

He advocated for the recruiting of Blacks at a time when it was not popular in the south to do so. He engineered the game that helped to integrate football in the South. The USC/Alabama matchup in the early 70's is what helped to bring in players of color to predominately white teams in the South. The Bear made that game happen via a good friend and golf buddy and the rest is history.

I take issue with the term " Wife beater"...It's okay to hit your sister.
