Why did Chris deem it necessary to create that dumb board and why do so many of you post over there.

Ive got too much internet in my life as it is.

There aren't enough of us to merit another board. We need to learn to live with each other and be a unified front!

My opinion only- OK? One board is very limited in your comments about things, the other is much more liberal. One has good interviews, the other has more limited information. One is 'directed' by the athletic dept./university, the other is totally independent. One is very restrictive in its' content, the other is very liberal. One offers total freedom of speech, the other is somewhat limited.
I happen to post on both.. They both serve a good purpose. I am sure some will disagree with me and that is their opinion which I respect.

I sincerely hope you're not insinuating that we're controlled by the university. There's a difference between professionalism and ethics in journalism (what we do) vs. shlock journalism and sensationalism.

Occasionally, we do keep a lid on things if we think that reporting it might disadvantage the team. I hope you guys can respect that as PonyFans.

Both boards serve a purpose. That's like asking why we have a football topic and a babe of the day topic.

Wait, that's the other board.

Football topic vs. basketball topic.

To be credited with any kind of "journalism" totally establishes the validity of our existence!

Sensationalism is our Hallmark!

WE ARE NEVER BUTT HURT!

Maybe not controlled by the University but what about being controlled by some in the athletic department (censorship)?
