Are you a member on an opposing teams board?

In general i am more likely to stay if there is good analysis and logical basketball talk but their success may be too new for that. Hopefully when the season starts i'll find a thread to get into and get comfy, but not so comfy that i get cocky, if ya know what i mean.
Good one!!! You know though that really good threads are hard to find. Went to Hong Kong but their thread are no better.
 
I did notice they were smashed together, the men's and women's BB threads that is but most reads have been decent haven't found a thread I felt like jumping in but over all it's been okay. Every board has it's own set of extremists I have found so there is no escaping that.
Extremists---By enlarge 90 plus percent of the Boneyard members offer fair comments. I think we can all be extreme when the right combination of words hit our brains. But I've surfed other boards and found some maybe more than some, hurtful, off topic in answers, personal attacks---those few Boneyard off topic offensive hurtful attacks --I apologize for.
 
Though the Orange motif makes me wanna puke, I do enjoy visiting VolNation (not a member). Lots of passionate and knowledgeable fans, lots of finger pointing over their program's FF failures, and often lots of comments about UConn. Man, those folks get really worked up over their women's basketball- can you say Boneyard? Holly suffers the brunt of the anger, most blaming her for the program's struggles. And while they almost always heap great praise when discussing Stewie (really, they do!), to a man they consider Geno the devil (for 'stealing' Maya), and Summitt saintly. Entertaining site- though a bit much of the coarse, ad hominem stuff.

VolNation isn't bad. I'll read it every now again when recruiting heats up to see if anyone has any insight into how a prospect is leaning since we generally go after the same kids. They have their yahoos as all fan bases do, but they also have a good dose of grounded posters that are pretty fair.

I find it night and day compared to the Summit which I haven't visited since it became a pay site - it can still get heated and occasionally personal, but mostly it has some pretty interesting discussions.

I'm too much of a UCONN homer to be a member on any other boards. I choose not to be because the Boneyard gives me all I can handle. Where else could you get such snarkiness as above from our Tobacco Road "Guest".

I completely agree with CocoHusky. What was it that Marv Levy (former head coach of the Buffalo Bills) use to say just before kickoff......"Where else would you rather be than right here, right now".

I love the yard. I came here from another thread. We never got the kind of news and updates there, that we get here. I'm too biased. I want the Huskies to win the NC every year until Geno leaves.

I'll "troll" other sites just to read what they're talking about, but I don't really have much to say about their team other than good luck for the coming season.
 
Rutgers Rival was good but since the BET isnt in Hartford anymore, its no fun and because UConn doesnt play them anymore.
The Summitt was nice to me when it was free. JumpingJack, Maria, TinyVol, RealTall, Chaffon VolCrazy89 were cool.
Volnation is honest these days... pissed but remain faithful.

if you mention how great UConn is on any other team site you'll be considered a troll.

Stanford, ND and Baylor had their moments.

I enjoyed Duke's and UNC... they were kind of active than normal
