I like Reddit but it is hard to have a dialogue there with the same group of people.

Yep, SportsHoopla isn't too big or too small (outside of the MLB board which is entirely too small, which is a shame) and even though it's anonymous mostly, I can actually recognize half the people at least.

With more forums shutting down it will increase the odds that some of our Hoop castoffs will come crawling back...

If I owned this site, would look at running some ads at Reddit on the NFL, CFB (if they have one), NHL and MLB boards. "Biggest sports forum on the Web", something like that. Unless it's cost-prohibitive.

Yeah- they’re on the facebook juice as well.

SportsHoopla needs a victory day thread to commemorate this victory over ESPN.

ESPN shut down its forum years ago. I doubt people wanting to comment on a article is coming here. probably they will go to PFT.

Feels like they all went to a bunch of private sites, here and a couple places. Was like a rowdy bar scene.
Yea we had quite the fallout for the Steelers fans. A group of 10-12 of us came over here after the shutdown, but only 3-4 of us stayed. Not sure where everyone went.

Same here. There were quite a few quality posters that were able to survive the ESPN boards and find a home here.


I survived the 4 letter board too. I spent a lot of time on the baseball side too. Alternating between Red Sox discussion and getting banned on the very sensitive Yankees board. For some strange reason (Hammerdown) a lot of Patriots fans did not last long on here. I wish they'd come back for a look. Shaggy is much more even-handed.....
