What meltdown of 99? I got here in March of 2000. In fact, I was on here because the Tide was in the NIT and some smarty pants up in Michigan invoked George Wallace and racism before the NIT Final Four. I also met bayoutider on another board, and he told me about here. Wound up getting a great copy of the 1991 MSU game from a feller in TX.
I haven't read the rules since day one, so I wasn't aware of the post count rule. It seems to me the three unmentionables on TF are anything to do with Saban's immediate predecessor, discussion of moderator action, and post count.
