Question

Interested in keeping the board going during the off-season?

I have always missed the downtime on the board over the winter and summer. I have been wondering how we could productively keep it active. Here is what I was thinking.
Read the following, suggest improvements, and give me your “username” if interested.
1. I will set up a list of interested participants and assign each person day of the week to start a post for the rest of us to try to figure out or discuss.
2. How many new posts each day will depend on how many are interested in participating.
3. You have a week to come up with a good “stump the chump” question, or other topic to discuss.
4. On “your day” you post your question for the rest of us.
5. A couple of days later, you post the answer if you have not already been in the discussion.
6. Try to come up with some good ones to get some good debates going.
7. We could also share pregame topics, mechanics, or specific position responsibilities.

If you decide to drop out, let me know and I’ll adjust the schedule if needed.
We can answer all posts from perspectives of NF, NCAA, or both, by just stating it in your reply.
Any number of people, from 7-35 could make this work. I hope some of you are willing. We can adjust if needed by numbers or interest, I just want to get something going if possible.
I have posted this on the McGriff’s board, and the Official Forum and will set it up and be willing to participate in both.

Give me input and tell me if you are interested.

Talking I volunteer to be stump the chump...

As most of my fellow officials will tell you: "Give it to Mikey... Mikey likes it!"...

Count me in also... I don't do any other sports so I would love to keep the mental gears oiled during the winter and spring months.
