I just found out ES was taken out in the back today on Reddit, because life has been going on since last year. So I followed the ES sub-reddit and see some familiar faces like Chew, Jumbo, ix, SS, sluggo and others. It's good to see the band is getting back together. :D

All we wanted was an answer, just a definitive "thanks, but no thanks" from the team. The mods poured their hearts and souls into that site, the members who were lucky enough to do game day coverage worked hard at it...and worked for free. I don't think we expected the new regime to understand that but pulling the plug without any warning and without any follow up as to why was the worst part.
Someone else probably owns the domain now, especially since the 2010 version pops up but is filled with links to porn. If anyone ventures there, don’t log in; just view it.


While this site may not be as big as ES, we can create a nice community here.

I am interested in getting the old admin/mods back into those roles if they are interested, so if they are send me a message.

I started using reddit more (still use it more than I do), but reddit sucks. Each thread is just hundreds of anonymous, throw away conversations that go nowhere. Too crowded and not enough organization, reminds me of trying to talk in a crowded club with loud music.

Wonder where the diehards like Califan went. Is it possible that he and others decided just to cut back from message boards....assuming they aren't on BGO?
I think we got to find a way to find them. I know someone knew skinsmarydru and I think she seemed to know a lot of the es diehards. So just got to keep plugging away. Getting China to signup would be a huge boon for the tailgate section!

If we can get SkinsMarydru to know about the site, that would be nice. Maybe give us a looksie.

LadySkinsFan, VoiceofReason were good posters.
