    Hi....

    Been a long time since I have posted, but wanted to see if any of the old timers are still on here. Anyone remember BigCurt ...Swann&Stallworth? Like I said, its been a long time since I have been in the room. It always feels like home here tho....If I remember correctly, this room started off another room back ....1997..98...I think...lol...I could been wrong tho...lol

    Anyway, have any of you guys been on the Steeers Leged Cruise before? I just got back today and it was awesome!!!

    If you haven't been, you guys should check it out.....Blessing to you guys....Have a good one...

    I remember both from the old steelers.com board.

    I believe TheStallworthSwann made a brief appearance here at one point but I haven't seen him in a long time. I credit him for shaping how I look at the draft process. Very knowledgeable guy.

    IM definitely interested in those Steeler cruises. Maybe some day.

    I was rick723 on the old board till they banned me for saying I hate cowher. I remember swan&stallworth. Not sure if I remember BigCurt. Rick723 I think was banned for life. Resigned up as Coastal Steeler and never could post after that. Couldn't talk Steelers till TTF made this board

    I remember all those names. I, too, was banned from the "official" board. I don't recall what my name was on there.

    Lol at the banning. Sounds about right.

    I used to frequent the forum and the chat room (remember the chat room? anybody...?) back in the early 2000s, but then had numerous issues with signing in, posting, etc. etc. I think quite a few of the early signer-uppers on TSF were in a similar boat with the posting problem at the official board.

    The thing I used to really like about the old Steelers MB was how the main page always had a note saying "Steelers sign Sean Mahan for a 7th round pick" in the right hand corner. FOR YEARS. Even after Mahan had left the team.

    The old "Official" Steeler Message Board was the closest thing to The Soup Nazi scenario playing out in real life. :club: I was banned for using the screen name "Buddy Dial" (WR) in honor of one of the few bright spots of 1960's Steeler football. In their unwritten book of rules, you couldn't use a Steeler player's name in your screen name. Never could sign on again or sign up under a different screen name.

    I was around for the old board but was never able to post on it. I still have emails from the old message board. I suspect they went ahead and banned me knowing it would have probably happened anyhow!

    Preemptive banning/ I can see the old board mods doing that! For anyone who wasn't around, that's where "Bad word" Lebeau came from since you couldn't say Dick!

    No wonder the old board died. It appears everyone was banned.

    Infomercial:

    I have found if you make donations to this site, you are less likely to get spanked or banned. Just saying...

    It probably still exists but with such a level of exclusion, only Deljzc and Joey1584 (was that their name?) are physically able to see it.

    I never was banned and had 8000 posts when it went down, the (anything but football section) was a wild west knock down and drag out with a lot of women posters who kept the cat fights flowing, they of course closed it down, but it was fun to watch the cat fights on there...................

    Yup, I was there and even on a really good one way back in the myspace days.


    I think I remember Pimplydan the most from the old board. He should be the mascot of this one. He's gold!!!

    Ha! I was on the "Official" board as well...I remember the default password they gave me was some numbers, Colclough, more numbers. (think it was his jersey number)

    I don't think I posted much there though. I think I was more sarcastic then.
