Other than Tidefans, what is your favorite rival forum?

I just checked out SEC Rants and it didn't seem very active. There were several threads devoted to the games this weekend, but other than that there were threads from October still on the front page. Then some guy had a sig that would get him banned here.
I lurk on the UAB site. It is pure comedy gold. Every thread seems to relate to us in some shape or form, mainly because they don't have their own football stadium to go with their basketball arena they never fill up. The jealousy and hatred they have makes ITAT look like a pro-Alabama site.
Then there are the posters spouting such wisdom as they would be able to compete with LSU and beat Vandy this year. Today someone started a thread wondering if the big storyline in a Bama-FSU game would be how we blocked them from hiring Jimbo Fisher.
My favorites are when someone starts a thread asking if anyone has extra tickets for an upcoming game. Once someone told a person they had 50,000 at the ticket window if they needed one and got called something I can't say on here.

From a totally unbiased opinion, I do believe that some of their claims have merit and I can see the conflict of interest. They fell off the map after Brown was fired, and the hire of Neil Calloway seemed like a horrible choice. But, the root of their problem has to do with UAB and their location. I believe their basketball team is a good example, they can't blame the UA system for their inability to sustain a winning tradition. They have had some really good coaches.
It's o.k on special occasions, just make sure you take a thorough shower afterwards
O.K. -- but it's only been 11 years... I misplaced my password for a bit and couldn't post.:wink:This is so wrong, and the fact that you have 2 posts in 14 years I believe this is advertisement
I think this legitimizes my recommendation. I posted the above remarks on a thread over there, check this out.........

The responses to your post over there are priceless. TexAgs is definitely an acquired taste.
For all things golf I go to Golfwrx.com. They have a great forum with very knowledgeable people posting there (Tom Wishon is a frequent contributor). Any question about clubs you can get answered there. Recommend highly. (I Thank Jess for getting me started with that one).
TideFans is the only site I post on anymore, I will lurk on SECRant, BamaMag, Rivals, and another Bama site called woollyal.com..For sheer comedy, I go to ShaggyBevo, that site is hilarious, especially the fark board on there..

I can't thing of one single board (other than this one) that I visit regularly. TideFans is my “home”. I may mosey over to ITAT every now & then if they’re in a meltdown, but I certainly never post there. I also have a few Bama "groups" that I visit on Facebook. They’re certainly not for “intelligent conversation” - although they do have some pretty good rivalry jokes/pictures.
I agree, though I haven't checked out woolyal.com yet. For classic farks, soonerfans.com is pretty good, too. The board itself hasn't been as funny lately, though. They used to have some great battles with Texas posters.
