Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

"Liberal, shmiberal. That should be a new word. Shmiberal: one who is assumed liberal, just because he's a professional whiner in the newspaper. If you'll read the subtext for many of those old strips, you'll find the heart of an old-fashioned Libertarian. And I'd be a Libertarian, if they weren't all a bunch of tax-dodging professional whiners." - Berkeley Breathed

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

Um....as the name suggests, I'm Rockspeed's girl and will be haunting the board in his absence, reporting in to him so that he doesn't miss out on anything while he's away from home. You'll likely only see me posting during gametime, other that -- I'm just a lurker. :)

Welcome to the board.

How long have you been lurking?

For a few months. Most of my lurking has been over his shoulder since he keeps me pretty informed (the man is obsessed I tell ya....). Most recently, I was very actively lurking as we watched the IU football game at whatever unholy hour of the evening here in Germany. It was great to get excited with everyone....and also feel the pangs of disappointment via the community as well. :)

I'm not a born Hoosier fan so my knowledge of Hoosier history is what I hear (and remember) from him. Depending on the evening (and the amount of wine in my system), I retain various amounts of information. :)

Haha, that was funny!

If I'm allowed to be nosy...is he a born Hoosier? And feel free to keep us updated on how he's doing!

Thank you for the welcome timpickett and tAmazing! I'm officially the resident dork and newb. (I promise to read first, ask Rockspeed, and THEN ask questions...actually, I'll probably just stick with asking Rockspeed :P)

Obatskii: Rockspeed is VERY much a born Hoosier. VERY. MUCH. I bought him a Championship banner to decorate his office (which is cream and crimson, glass and stainless steel) and you would have thought I proposed. Hell, the banner is cheaper than jewelry....

He's doing well. Already arrived at his destination super tired and already busy. Ah, the joys of Uncle Sam's bidding. :)

His office sounds awesome, and it sounds like you know how to buy a gift!

I had a girl buy me an IU t-shirt once and I was about in the same boat of emotions.
