OD did it nearly a week in advance with Oregon I saw, a couple of people were like ugh stop. Then others started doing it.

I think there must be some kind of pride thing with starting the thread or something. :noidea:

Should be started Monday, 5 games before the game. One forum I go to always does this and it is much better than the forums that don't start them until the last second. It is not like this is a high activity board and it is fun talking about the game all week not just the day of

The convention had been that game threads were for talk during the game.
Maybe we need official "pre-game" threads for all the trolling leading up to the game.

Why not just start the game threads Monday and talk about the game all week? Why do we need a separate in-game thread for discussion during the game?
