McGriff's

Is McGriff's forum totally shut down now? The "betting line" posts are gone, but I couldn't post to it.

I thought you did not go back there anymore?

It appears that Gary has just locked up the site. I am surprised this is the first reference I have read to that site.

Peace

Couldn't tell you. I gave it up about three weeks ago.

I used a tabbed browser called Maxthon. It has all the boards that I frequent saved as a group. I deleted McGriff's basketball and football boards from the group. I have no intention of going back there.

I wouldn't either, if I could get onto the FED boards.

I used to get there via the Colorado Springs IAABO website. But I have not gone there for quite awhile. I cannot remember who the ill informed joker was on that board, so it is good that I am not able to go back and remind myself.

According to their records, there is a username "ChuckElias."

Have you forgotten your password?

No, but I just went and tried it and it worked. Is the username case sensitive? I don't usually use the caps to login. Maybe that was the issue. Anyway, thanks.

No, I don't think it's case sensitive...at least not with regard to the username.

You're probably talking about the guy that started out as GL and wound up as JMO. I often wondered if he was doing that crap just to yank everyone's chain, or if he really was that bad.

I think the last time I was over there was two years ago. I read one thread as a lurker and decided never to go back.

McGriffs is back now. Apparently, it was a file problem and has been fixed.

JMO was the guy I forgot about. Thanks for reminding me.

Man, Gary got it back up and running, and it's already crawling with those spam messages. I wouldn't be surprised if Gary just shuts it down. Too bad. It used to be a great place.
