But that's just my opinion. And it's not like there was much activity on the site tonight other than the MBB thread. Most of the site was dead.

I'm not just simply stating that during a game that everyone can watch on tv if nothing else can discuss and watch the game together. To me that's the whole point of this site. I am all for the off topic stuff, etc. any other time. I for one post A LOT of off topic stuff when we're not playing, but during the game I am all about the game. If this really bothers people here then ask yourself why...

Hey, some would say it's rather foolish to even be on the computer when the game is going on - I wouldn't disagree with 'em.

Again - people can do what they want as long as rules are being followed.

Jeremy can also make the game thread stay to the top and that would solve this small problem. Real small problem....he also said you can subscibe to only certain sections.

Whats this laptop you speak of? I put my darn PC tower and Monitor on my lap during games. My legs fall completely asleep shortly before halftime. On the plus side I lose all urge to pee.

I agree, but my PC is two feet away from my TV and I keep it on to post about the game during TV TO's etc. , like I said before as if I was talking to the guy next to me at the game...just my opinion...

Would a chat room work better for games?

I see over on the post-game thread that Coach might be on the hot seat next year. Boy that seems productive.

Jeremy should shut down all threads but the game thread during any sporting event. I think this is a great idea...

for me to poop on!

Attention: Chuck Boozer just texted me a little bit ago and said he was on his Palm pilot during the game, and he said the lack of people paying attention to the Iowa State vs aTm game thread on cyclone fanatic really made the team play bad as they didn't feel as if everyone was supporting the team.

Post game is over 30 mins after the game ends...dont you know this is the time to post ONLY off-topic stuff, since there are no athletic events taking place?

Some of us have achieved the ability to multitask. We can do several different things simultaneously. If you eat your Wheaties and go to bed on time, one day you will be able to multitask too!!

Until then, get off your high horse...
