Picking at 23, but probably trading back from there, makes it a bit hard for me to get excited.

It's gonna be different having a relatively limited number of picks to play around with this year. That much is for sure. Kwesi really really needs to bring his A game this year. Last year's draft was a disaster....

With camp underway, I expect things to pick up around here again. It’s been pretty quiet around these parts since the draft.


This is a friendly reminder to play nice. I’m still lurking…

Not sure who you are, Mr. “Joined on June 10th, 2023, but name-drops hates like a vet,” but if you continue to call out Froobs unprovoked like this, you won’t be here long.

I’ll be the judge of that. If you enjoy his contributions, then you should encourage him not to call out Froobs like he did in this thread.

How are we all doing? Just over a week until it gets real again! I hope you’re all excited about the season and looking forward to a few really active months here. Should be fun.


Keep in mind, we’ll probably attract a lot of users on game days that don’t spend all their waking hours (not that there’s anything wrong with that!) here 12 months out of the year. Be nice. If they ask about something you guys have rehashed a million times or forget that a guy was released or don’t know the development arc of our UDFAs, be nice. More users makes for a better board and good behavior attracts and retains more users.

The board has been great, if I may say so, since I started moderating more actively last December. The credit for that is to you all. Thank you for what you do here and respecting my moderation. Expect the board to be challenged with increased usage. Don’t let a bad apple (should one appear) ruin this for everyone and don’t lower yourself to that level. Report it. Let myself or another mod deal with it, and move on with your Purple Froobing. Use the foe/ignore feature for an unruly poster in real-time if the mods don’t immediately intervene. Remember, such folks only have the power to ruin the board that you give them. Deny them your attention and you deny them their power. We will clean it up eventually and take out the trash as necessary if behaviors are reported, but I’d hate to have to throw one of you fine, upstanding Purple Froobs out with the trash because you lowered yourself to it. But I will. Rules have to be rules and they apply to all.

Remember, no spamming, name-calling, or hijacking of threads. Do not allow purple discussions between posters to become discussions about purple posters.

Go Vikes and suck it Green Bay!


Have a good season of Froobing, my purple brethren!

You can be as negative on the team as you want. You can’t troll, spam, or name call (among other things).



To clarify. You can name call coaches and players and refs and owners if you want. Call Kirk cousins a shitface. Call Zygi Wilf an idiot. I don’t care. So long as it’s not racist or sexist or homophobic , etc., vent until your heart is content. But don’t call other Froobs such things.

But see, I chuckle at the bs that's posted because the poster shows how ignorant and stupid they are, as compared to the person they are posting about.

Entertainment is in the eye of the beholder, which I understand.

You are in the minority on that. But honestly, if everyone had that attitude, we could let more go around here. But most don’t. So we gotta do what we gotta do!

Enjoy the season!

Reminder to be nice to others, Froobs! 0-3 with the chance at falling to 0-4 can be frustrating. Don’t take your anger out on each others. Remember, none of us have anything to do with the on-field product. You’re not mad at your fellow Froob!



Also, when venting about said product, don’t be a one-note, obnoxious troll. Nobody wants that.


And maybe we win and we’re all friends again, except the “Collapse for Caleb” crowd. But you can’t please everyone!

So you are both admitted trolls? Pretty sure that's frowned upon by the mods.

btw you're less of a baiter and more of a back-tracker. :beer:
