    Used to love college basketball “Back in the Day”. Watched any Raycom, Jefferson Pilot, and Big 5 games from the Palestra on channel 8 out of Lancaster. Never missed a Terp game. Lost interest when they switched to 1 and done players. Players would come and go so fast, you never got to know and appreciate the best players.
    Also couldn’t get into watching those big Terp/Iowa or Nebraska games.

    Amen to that. Also, maybe his sister-in-law could get enshrined too. She's sort of the Earnest Byner of RSR.

    Ha! JimZip told me I got name-checked, so I figured I'd pop in and say hi. And look at that, my account still works and I even remembered my password! LOL

    All's well here. Short story is, my dad and I went to the SB in New Orleans, it was literally a top-five moment in my life, and I wound up coming to the realization that I'd peaked as a Ravens fan. It would never get any better than being in-person for a SB win in an incredibly thrilling game, which was amazing. But it allowed me to just emotionally check myself out of the sport. Why bother getting irritated when something bad happened, when it would literally be all downhill from there? Like Jim said, I disconnected so thoroughly I had to ask whether Lamar really was as good as he seemed to be last year.

    The family and I are healthy and happy and living our best lives, as much as anyone can in the midst of a pandemic where my wife - who worked in a unit that would maybe see one or two people die in a year - was coming home daily with stories of another person passing away and occasionally the horror of basically an entire family succumbing to the disease. I honestly can't complain much though. We're both still employed and have been staying safe, and the kids are both great, so it's all good.

    I'm not back here...I won't be checking the board. But figured I'd check in and say hi! Hope you're all safe and well! :-)

    I remember him. GinoGiant and GinoMarchetti were to others I recall.

    hey psu, thanks for popping in. sounds like life is good and in balance and all. i got to a point a few years ago where i had to take an honest look at whether football fandom was having a negative effect on my life. that Christmas game against the steelers in 2016 was def. the low point. we flew down to spend christmas with my in-laws, and i'm really the only football fan there, and we lost that game in the last few seconds and just the emotional rollercoaster didnt ruin xmas but it did cast a shadow over it for the whole fam. i'm in a better place now. not as invested in the game, but i'm a better father and husband.

    I stepped back from the game for other reasons and as I came back to it, I found my it is "just a game" mentality. No matter how much you despise the other team, most if not all are saying hi, hugging and chatting after the game. Even Raven's steelers at the end of the day are co-workers. Fans need to treat the games more as such and it has a much less of an impact on your overall happiness.

    No I swear it was something else, definitely longer. It was still in the whole fantasy dungeons and dragons theme.
