Hopefully I can make this easier pretty soon.  Here is what it looks like when you got it all typed in:


which gives you this:

Crimson Red Sports

And you can use the code button to show a piece of literal bulletin board code without it being converted.  The code button is the # sign next to the quote button.  So the first code block in this post was accomplished like this:

LOL now that is pretty fine. 

Welcome CrimsonPhoenix.  +1 E-Cred to you.

Welcome hscoach.

Lots of people have been asking about you.  I'm glad you decided to join us.  Here, have some E-Cred.

I just saw that hscoach signed up.  I'm sure he will be in here shortly after he gets the e-mail confirmation from the server.

Lol that is what he told me about a week ago.  He must be really working hard on that.

Maybe we can build a special recruiting section over here when we get some time.  I'm guessing that a forum is probably not the best way to track all of that stuff.  Maybe we have a blog post about each recruit with their picture, bio, stats, etc.  And then everyone can comment on that one recruit instead of having one big recruiting thread.  We could put a recruiting link on the front page that goes to this special section.

Not that I'm aware of.  The e-mail address I had may have been old.  I had not sent him anything in a while.

I'm going to take the sticky off this topic, I think it has run its course.

LOL that is funny.

By the way the book is Copyright 1974, so it may very well have been the same book you read back then.

There are a ton of great stories in that book.  I highly recommend it.  Another one in there talks about the time he wore a helmet in pre-game warm-ups at Georgia Tech because the fans had thrown bourbon bottles at them during the previous game there.  They came out for warm-ups and the scoreboard was set to 90-0 in favor of Tech.  Of course that didn't work out so well for Tech. 

I will give this word of warning though... on many occasions when reading the book I found myself wanting to put on a helmet and go tear the door down myself.  It really get's me fired up.

It might be fun to post some stories like that from time to time.  I don't think we would be in trouble for copyright violations as long as it is a short excerpt from a much larger book, and we give credit to the author with a link to where to buy the book on amazon.  I might try to contact the author of that book and see if I can get official permission.

Any lawyers out there want to weigh in on what is allowed without getting in trouble?

Doh!!!  I see what happened.  I was working on the new theme last night and I accidentally changed the background color for the quotes on the live server.  I put it back the way it was for now.  But I will probably make the text a little bigger in the new theme.

Sorry about that guys.  I guess I should get a boo for that.

Sorry about that, I noticed it too.  I am making the text bigger in the new theme I am working on.

Welcome Captain Hammer and +1 E-Cred.

Another +1 for the entire board.
