Boneyard 8/8/1998 to ...

Can we get back kras, nyhuskyfan, AussieCuz & Rabid ... at the waiver wire. I’d clearly push out 4 to-be-named11.

Thank you. I AM certain I read every post back then.

I think nyhuskyfan is here under a different name.

I think nyhuskyfan is hear under a different name.

I thought you were in education. Here not hear

I’ve filleted the PR from nyhuskyfan☀️ All steps of his career. His school is always amongst my favorite - including their Women’s Soccer Team.

When Justin Brown crashed and burned I think AussieCuz lost his standing and interest in the 'Yard. Great guy though, loves his Red Sox. Grrrrrr!

Of course we need to HIGHLIGHT this one from a Syracuse fan in May 1998

“First off, I'm glad Hamilton is staying. I say that more as a Big East fan than a Huskie fan, of course. I mean, our league needs to keep all of its top players for as long as possible. Second, have any of you considered the amount of pressure this will bring to bear on the program? Now that Hamilton's staying, I'm hearing a lot if "Final Four" talk as if it's a given. That's a mistake. Fact is, pressure like that that can do a lot of funny things to even the most talented of teams. Calhoun MUST get the job done, or get close to getting it done, IMO, if he is ever to be considered among the games better coaches. If you guys ever field a better team than the one you'll have next year, well, congratulations. I'm not predicting a complete blowup or anything, but I do think that expectations have a way of getting in the way of reality. Thoughts? “

Yup

I have thoughts. Hehehehe

I read one post trashing Moore. That probably why the poster disappeared in shame.

Actually. He pleases me to no end annoying the swami in politics and rooting Red Sox baseball

 

[temery]

He's still here?

Ha ha. Nope. Still alive and well.

The image of you talking Boneyard posts into your iPad amuses me. Not sure why. Maybe because I picture you animated and pacing as you do it.

I clicked onto one link and it mentioned that Dirk Nowitzki was staying in the NBA Draft.

I feel like I'm 90.

 

[MadDogRevival]

There's a few of these handles on the board. @mauconnfan aka Mau is actually Mass-UConn-fan not a tribute to the Chinese chairman

I seriously just assumed he lived in Maui.
I'm going to keep thinking that - it's a much better image.

Wait til you get to feeling like you're 120, youngster. Lol.

I guess was here in May of 98 when the wayback machine discovered the 'yard.
It was great reading some of the old names. Really miss nyhuskyfan and AussieCuz. Both were clever, and nyhuskyfan in particular was among the more insightful posters on the board. Miss SuzyQ, too, despite her orange leanings.


Was funny though to see a Bobby Hurley mention in a recruiting thread from may of 98.

Joined in the Scout days under the handle DConn. When the platform changed to rivals I was unable to retain it; but I have never seen a DConn post since then. My girls had given me a UConn men's championship CT license plate for Father's day -EWEKON. So that's how this one came about.

Holy cow...I remember DConn. Hated that guy.



Anyway, I stumbled in here November, 1998 as the swell was getting bigger for that eventual 77-74!!!!

 

[Marat]

I think I was lurking on the Yard mostly at that time, but using BigEast.org message boards to post back in '98.

The attached images are reversed because the stickers were designed for placement inside the car window. They are unused extras. I can guess, but don't know: When we're they issued?

At Tom's behest, I designed and had printed the 77-74 sticker starting immediately after the game. I think they were available in May of 99. I still have one on each of my cars.

International Zone Coaster

For the longest time, I thought he was "International Zincster" - a big supplements guy?

 

[Paesano]

I am on that page under a different name. I personally liked the old Courant and Big East boards where the moderating was nonexistent.

Zinc is good too. GREAT mineral.

I was "lurking" back then as I do now. We had just moved from CT in 97 and this was my lifeline to info. Sure has changed

Agawam lol

Basically the same thing. They are both vacation destinations.
