Remember When...

[MHSL82]

Being a newb here, I will just let it go..have fun.

None of those were serious. I'd be surprised if anyone else, newbie or regular, had a problem with what I posted in this thread, either for its content or its fit along with the OP's post. This was about football (made in game threads about an exaggerated criticism of Smith's on-field play), happened in the past, "funny, ridiculous, or even bizarre," etc. I did give the disclaimer that it was only funny to those involved.

For the newbies on this board: this originated on ESPN when everyone was blaming Smith for everything, even when he was injured. I think it started when Smith was on the bench nursing his torn throwing shoulder. It's a bit of an inside joke that isn't that funny for those not involved, but a memory nonetheless for us regulars. Maybe one of you newbies contributed to it but then did not migrate until now.

I was thinking "what the hell is going on with the endless Smith rant". Thankfully I missed that joke.

I started that in a game thread a few years back. After NolanNonsense blamed Alex Smith for something when he was on the sidelines. Something like "If Alex Smith didn't take all the first team reps Hill would be more prepared to win this game" And I started expanding it to more outrageous things. IMac joined in and it got really fun. Way to make a losing game interesting. Then the next morning a new thread with just alex smith stuff started up.

I love watching these interviews with the ex-Beatles.

Haha, it was ridiculous but memorable for those involved.

I participated in that original thread, but I think everyone on that board did! It was like the anti-Chuck Norris thread...

I was serious with every single one of those "Alex Smith . . . ." posts that I made.

But seriously, like darken said, leave the past behind and stick to the OP's plan with this "Remember when" thread.

Wait. What?

The only thing I regret about everything ESPN did is that it cost us those threads. Those were good times.

Remember the future because the past is the past, forget it! Just kidding, Darken, I like your posts and contributions to this board.

Remember when we were allowed to have sexy chicks as our avatars?

But really, remember when there was a very long debate thread about the appropriateness of private gun ownership in America, and then it's illegitimate love-child thread about the appropriateness of private gun ownership in regard to adults stalking and murdering unarmed minors over a bag of Skittles? Sure glad the internet was around in 2013 to solve a couple of America's most pressing issues with such eloquence.

The "Fumblerooski" by Nebraska against Miami in the Orange Bowl. Too cool.

1984 Orange Bowl National Championship - "FUMBLEROOSKI" - YouTube

Nebraska ran their first Fumblerooski in 1979 against Oklahoma, with Randy Schluesener, now one of my doctors (he's an orthopedic surgeon), running 17 yds for a TD.

The whole video is good, but 6:12 is the good part...

Wish I could find a better video, this clip just didn't do it justice!

That just depressed me for some reason.

Pretty cool. Its a gutsy play, purposefully leaving the ball on the ground for a lineman to pickup. When it works, its cool. Remember the Staue of Liberty play that Boise State ran on Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl a few years back for the winning TD? That was awesome.

Just to keep it all together. No need to go read it, of course.

Remember when Kaepernick used to throw touchdowns?

Good times.
