"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

Re: USCHO Memories: Back In The Day....
I also didn't officially join right away and/or my original moniker was Slaughter - hard to remember that far back.
Really miss hockey postings from the DU fan that quit several years ago due to really uncalled for personal attacks. Name started with a, "D"?
The series threads were often locked from too many posts, especially anything UW/UND/UM and to lesser extent SCSU when Hartigan got robbed (no he didn't), and anything BC/UHN was sure to be epic.
Polls used to matter.
eaglebunny? Holy s**t that guy.
Wasn't there a UCONN or CommAveHusky that passed? I might be completely wrong on that so don't want to send up a false flag.
[edit] I just realized I'm going on 19 years officially, and I now remember that I first visited not long after I was married which was August, 1997.

CAH is still with us. Which is both good and bad because I owe him many a beer.
My favorite was probably the threads of the women's DI board where UNHCat07 kept talking about PU getting their desevrings and Coach Nutty being... nutty.Last edited by Jon; 11-26-2019, 11:29 AM.

Name started with a, "D"?That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
