damn i wanted to hear how a young teenager decided he was going to become a jags fan and had stuck with them ever since.
That's essentially me with the Rams.

so a random poster just claimed y2k was a jags fan and comes in here every week and posts about them?
It's a weird obsession.
Regardless of whether Y2K really does or really does not like the Jags, they are an interesting case study.
I empathize and identify with Browns fans. We Canuck fans share a lot of similar pain.

Except they haven't been in the playoffs in 15 years or won a playoff game in over 20.
On the other end, they were a quite successful franchise winning several championships early on before the Super Bowl era.
The Browns were close for a few years and suffered a few heartbreaking playoff losses. There are parallels.

Decades ago though. Just don't confuse 3 or 4 down years with multiple decades of failure.
Good point. Because the Canucks certainly have never suffered multiple decades of failure. When were you born? 1994?

Not really; Browns fans (at least those REALLY old) had far greater pain. Look into the history of Jim Brown & why he ended his career early.

I have no idea how, but I won 4 spots to an open skate at Rogers tomorrow. Now, I don't have my own skates or helmet--can't really skate anyway--(TFW you grew up in a poorer Asian household) but there'll be food, Canucks alumni, and apparently off-ice activities. Anyone ever been to one of these?

Not me, all my stupid predictions/analysis have been erased from history!
Seriously though, there *IS* however a way to read SOME threads going back prior to 2011. Not that easy but one can try and find SOME fragments via use of "The Internet Archive Wayback Machine..."

Going to take some digging...
Here is an example of stuff way back from 2008:
