Montana's AD Jim O'Day has heard these concerns, and replied with a remarkably long, detailed e-mail that was circulated among Montana fans before being posted to eGriz.com, a popular Montana Grizzlies fan board. We have confirmed with the Montana athletic department that the letter is genuine. And while it's much too long to post here in full, there was one particularly scary detail about how the school currently struggles with finances (bolded emphasis ours):
 
Congrats!

What was that Steve Martin movie where he sees his name in the phonebook? He was running around telling everybody that he is finally somebody.


Glad to see that you are finally somebody, police blotters aside...

:lol:
 
It's too bad that the people at CBSSports.com gave it a rel=nofollow in the link. That would've been a hell of a nice backlink for egriz (google pagerank 9 site linking to egriz).

Usually you only add the rel=nofollow on links that have absolutely nothing to do with the content (like links in the comment section in a blog). They shouldn't have added the nofollow since the link to eGriz is relevant to the content of their article.

Still very cool though it's in the CBS College Football Blog. Maybe we'll see some Griz fans pop up on here who weren't aware of eGriz yet.

Let's face it, they might be better off not knowing about this place...

:clap: :clap: :clap:

I was thinking the same thing. :lol:
 
eGriz isn't that much different than other sports message boards in terms of type of members that post here. All message boards have a fair amount of trolls. Show me a message board that doesn't, and I'll show you a message board that has no activity.

As much as we dislike trolls, they serve a useful purpose. Controversial posts generate interest, replies and keep people coming back to a message board. A message board that has no controversial topics to discuss is a very boring message board and will die out fairly quickly. I've seen it happen before to a fairly large and popular message board :( Of course a message board that has too many trolls can run into trouble too if the trolls chase too many regular posters away.

Even though it seems like we have a lot of trolls, there are much more regular posters on here than trolls. We have a pretty good balance I think... Trolls are always very vocal, so sometimes it seems like there are more of them than there actually are :)
