Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Can't believe nobody has mentioned Coach KD's 'Chalk Talk' series. I'll wager more folks have learned more about this game from those than any other thing they've read. I really need to add to the 'White Board' too. It's been too long ..... Hail.

Capt. Kaos Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I don't know about influential but I still get comments from ESer's at tailgates about my "The season is over" ninja thread. That thread was freakin' fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 It could be argued,a little,that the Daily Babe Thread was influential,but it was more notorious than anything else. That and a real pain in the ass for the mods. The thread pushed the envelope. I remember the reminders not to post out right porn in the thread. It is the one thread everyone from that timeframe remembers, and for that it is influential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 TK once posted a legendary "State of the ES Union" (as I always called them) type thread about morons on ES and contributing to the "revolution" here. It was such a good thread that I bumped it years later, I believe, during a particularly annoying time in ES history (maybe the Cult of Colt days) but I can't find it now.

mattermind Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I'm pretty sure Jesse Lumsden factors in here somewhere. Paloffs is classic, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Anything posted by Pittman4two Oh man, I miss that guy's annual Preseason Prognostications threads. I still hate Mike Alstott, but because of P4T I can never truly hate the "Pewter Pirates." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirt Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Pittman4two, and some thread with killer ninja text. Eli drunk thread. Babe thread. The best thing about the Malcomb kelly thread was that the VERY FIRST reply was simply a picture of a comb lol. GHH makes a point, while we're pretty much talking most memorable, the most influential would be threads that were actually about football. A lot of threads end up with links to those Bill Walsh youtube clips that we all wish we could watch a whole version of. But basically, what THIS thread did was give me nostalgia, which made me pissed off all over again about how the board changed .

PCS Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 The thread pushed the envelope. I remember the reminders not to post out right porn in the thread. It is the one thread everyone from that timeframe remembers, and for that it is influential. Pushed? Cripes that thing many times flat out put the envelope in the shredder. This after numerous warnings to participating members about it. The Owned thread was just that close too,but folks really rallied for that one.

I didn't even visit the board that much and managed to catch the 'out-right' pornography haha. I actually figured the mods were kind of 'letting it go' with that one. Same with the owned thread.

SkinsFTW Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 The funniest thing about the Pittman4two threads was that 1/2 the people got pissed and took him seriously lol. I always thought the guy pretending to be Todd Collins and his threads were funny too and got the same kind of reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 We never did sign VJax. RJax TJax DJax, but VJax never did roll into town although we spent about 2 seasons tracking him on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Did the term "Norvousness" ever catch on, outside ES? Yes. San Diego was quite familiar with it: http://boltbeat.com/2012/10/16/a-norvous-breakdown/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Would say this is an easy one....the thread when we were about to hire Jim Fassel? I am convinced that the outrage that ensued once it was leaked, changed Snyders mind on who the HC was going to be. Lol I remember that. People on here were freaking. Out.

Metalhead Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Anything posted by Pittman4two Definitely his threads. New posters that didn't know his schtick would go ballistic thinking he was trolling ES. He was always a step ahead of those clowns. Does he still post? I haven't been over to the Stadium forum in quite some time (the McNabb era really burned me out). But these are what I remember the best: When Gibbs came back. That thread will stay with me forever. Cult Of Colt. It was a full-blown civil war. Campbell haters vs. believers, and he had "it". He supposedly had "it", but so elusive even he couldn't find it. Paloffs *Edit - I forgot about the Fassel thread. What a meltdown! Drunk Eli. Just thinking about the clown 'shopped in is cracking me up lol.

Larry Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Yes. San Diego was quite familiar with it: [The term "Norvousness"] http://boltbeat.com/2012/10/16/a-norvous-breakdown/ Dang, that brings back memories, too. Epic find, China. Not just the use of the term, but the context, too. Opening paragraph of your link: There were no words. I sat on my couch stunned, not wanting to believe what had just happened on Monday Night Football. There was an odd calm about me; no yelling, no cursing, as if I had just accepted my fate of being a Chargers fan. We had just blown a 24-0 lead and lost the game.

d0ublestr0ker0ll Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I'll nominate "The Random Thought Thread". In my short time posting there, it's come to my surprise that people post alot about what is happening in their lives. Good, bad and ugly. It's kind of a venting thread, and the posters are good people, it's therapeutic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
