that and a nickel bub...The powers that be decided a few months back that there was too much clutter in the legit forums for threads like 'this player sucks, he cost me 10K', or the 'Houston coach sucks, because he called a draw play in the first quarter'.
I think that's the reason, I think the mods and admins want the college and pro forums clutter free, so handicappers that spend time and energy threads don't get buried because of dumb ass threads.
That's what I think anyway.
