Agree with the bible thumpers being anti-gay. Not all of them. Had a couple over for dinner we use to go to church with. This guy is one if the genuinely good people in this world. This was about the time states were legalizing gay marriage. This guy who I have never heard him once talk bad about someone, goes off on a 5 minute rant on gays and marriage. What happened to not being judgmental, it's for God to decide. All bc he heard some preacher talk about it so that was his stance. Turns out this preacher was laundering money through his church. Preacher served 3 years.. I haven't gone back to church sense. Okay sorry SportsHoopla members went a little off course.

It is the internet with words on the screen. It is simple to scroll. No need for anything extra here our mods have done a fantastic job. No need for more ever.

Meant to ask, how are the kids doing today? Better I hope.

I actually called in sick, and so did my wife. We work at the same hospital. This is the first time she's missed work in 5 years. She's been a nurse for 10 so we are around sick people all the time.

I have a 4 year old, a 2 year old, and a 6 month old all with fevers. It's been a fun past two days.

Yea fevers and throwing up were part of it and the flu shot seems to not matter. I just blame school cuz they spread germs sooo fast there. Obviously hospitals have germs too but i swear kids go out of their way to put their hand on everything then into their mouth goes them nasty fingers. I just hope it passes fast, for everyone! The worst is when the littlest ones get it and all they can do is cry and not tell you what hurts etc.

Interesting read, some of this. For you Rivalites, a question: do the Rivals mods get paid? Were they chosen from posting regulars of the board?

Some of my earliest memories involve music. My parents were big into it and we had a lofty collection of 33s and 45s. Dad was more into the mellow stuff while Mom dug bubblegum pop and early era heavy metal, along with most anything else that sounded good. I got my eclectic taste in music from her and my After Hours music moods from Dad.

This is late 1970s/early 1980s we're talking where my world basically revolved around cartoons, toy cars, and music. We'd listen to the radio a lot and it was one of those with the green dial lighting and an 8-track player with that big white button that when you pressed it would skip from the middle of the song you were listening to the middle of the next song.

Dad had an 8-track player and every weekend if the weather was nice, he'd tinker with his car while listening to Booker T & the MG's. He was into the Lettermen. Mom was more of a Led Zeppelin girl. Both loved Carolina Beach Music, people like the Embers, Fantastic Shakers, Chairmen of the Board, and the Drifters among others.

We had a little 45 player in our bedroom and the parents would just bring home new vinyl. My brother and I would listen to them and if it was universally agreed that the song sucked, he and I would take those 45s and roll them down the hallway to each other. I remember this vividly being something we did after listening to John Schneider's cover of "It's Now or Never."

I took to listening to records and the radio real early in life and that's never really gone away. A lot of the informational stuff was from being fans of people like Casey Kasem, Rick Dees, and Dick Clark.
Damn!! We might be brothers. Pretty much the same story growing up, especially the beach music. I've loved it since I was a kid and now I've turned my kids onto it. They are 11 and 12 and love it. I'm trying to find somewhere reasonable to teach them how to shag. In other words, not in the berr joints and bars, but an actual studio or something.

They are not paid. They are regular posters who get selected after a mod steps down.

I hear that a lot of people shag in the bedroom.

Unpaid position. Yes, chosen from regulars of the board. @bamagrad75, @CowpokeU, @PSUTE, and @IrishBlooded can answer most of your questions since all spent time as moderators there.

Thx. I know ESPN farmed out the mod work to agencies, before they closed the forum shop.

Good to have some more SECE guys in. Great fake punt by Kirby there, ODD :)
