Surefire way to fill this board up with some horrible discussion and some TomLight obsession.

Gatos is the only one of those I've heard of...

All of the rest (along with Gatos) go back to Austin 360 days.  Probably way before your time.  I see all three at times post on the CyberSewer (gp.com)

Before my time? Possibly, but that'd be tough to do. I've been around since the beginning, though I didn't peruse Austin 360 all that much. Plus, my memory gets pretty foggy when stretched that far back.

Personally, I wish Wichita Cat would come over and argue with me.  He's about the only hardline gp.com kool-aid drinker that will go slumming on the "Cat Chat" board.  And he isn't even that much of a kool-aid drinker.

ksupowercat.com? Hmmm, it doesn't really ring a bell. I was one of the first on the ol' KSUFans.com though. How do the timeframes between that and ksupowercat.com compare?

You expect me to remember the date? Haha, yeah right. :)

All I know is it was right after I got my Hotmail account early in high school, because that's the only time I used "kougar24" (#24 in basketball, played for the Cougars, "cougar24" was taken, yadda yadda) Lucky me, I've been stuck with it ever since. Would 1998 or '99 fit your theory?

Old KStatefans had the best basketball discussion there has been.  Period.

Of course it helped that there was still some hope then, the cynicism hadn't crept in yet that we've seen progress the last 3 years.  Besides us diehards and optimists that just like basketball, there really hasn't been much to discuss besides disappointment the last few years.  Its been a case of "who can spin this the best" and "who can be the best cynic".

I think March will see a new wave of basketball posting and in a light that we haven't seen for quite some time.

I'd say kougs wasn't around for ksupowercat or wildcatfans.com. I think wildcatfans.com was the best all-around because it was small, but it had a good group of regular visitors that didn't talk a lot of crap. That's when LBuff was actually cool. The board was short-lived though. I was mainly a reader on Austin360 and didn't post much. When ksupowercat and wildcatfans merged though it made for a good board. What the hell ever happened to Sooner04? Is he still on soonerfans? I know 24 is still around.

Didn't ksupowercat use the @ as in ksupowerc@t?  My favorite thread there was the raging debate over the lavendar jersies (pre-Wooldridge's botched attempt at bringing them back for the ku game).

http://web.archive.org/web/19990128150443/www.ksupowercat.com/bbs/ksubasketball/

I wish we could still read these threads.  There could be some interesting conversations from those days.

I remember GoBig12 before Austin360 took it over.  That was back when NUBB was NUBB.  "KSU takes $8 million from the Big 12!"  The big best flame wars were against the Sooners at the time, not Squawks or Huskers.  Boomer Sooner and his poor sexually abused dog locked in the basement.  TexasSooner.  D-Mike.  Girly Fighter.  And of course, Gatos' stories of Green Country and his neighbors (can't remember the guy's name; his wife was "Big Red").

That was fun reading.

I still think "Winbush vs. Sproles" would hold its own against the best of the best, all-time. Between the large crown on Wagner Field to the double-digit number effect on the apparent size of a player, that was a classic if I ever saw one.
Title: Re: No Wildcat Nation?
Post by: Fausto on February 18, 2006, 09:57:39 AM
"KSU takes $8 million from the Big 12!"

Ahh yes, NUBB.  Don't forget his friend Cousin NUFB as well.  Nothing speaks more to the value of a Nebraska education.

When did you start up on GoBig 12/Austin 360 Maniac?  I'm thinking it was '97 for me.  My god, almost 10 years!  The name I remember (besides those mentioned) is OUthouse, err I mean OUrhouse.  Anyone seen that name slumming around anywhere?

Title: Re: No Wildcat Nation?
Post by: Cat Maniac on February 18, 2006, 05:47:19 PM
"Winbush vs. Sproles" started off great for about the first 3-5 pages, then got stupid as some folks were mindlessly bumping the thread with pointless comments unrelated to the game-by-game updates of the "great race".  "Moulin Rouge" suffered the same fate.

I started in the summer of 1998.  Lurked for most of that season.  My first post was a response to NUBB who claimed that the BCS was forced to take the top 2 at-large teams, and I found an ESPN link that said the exact opposite.  Ironically, if NUBB was right, we'd been in the BCS in both 1998 and 1999.  *Sigh* 

My first major thread was the "Nebraska takes $8 million from the Big 12" one where only 3000 corn went to the 1996 Orange Bowl, and the OB people were on record that they were afraid the same thing might happen to KSU after the 98 Championship Game.  About two dozen corn swooped down on me and called me "classless!" for that post.  One guy I recall saying "I was going to congratulate you on getting Josh Buhl to commit, but after reading this thread...forget it!"  Then I found a Topeka C-J news story that confirmed my post, and the NUBB wars were in full-force.  That was right after he called you, SoCalCat, NCCat and Gatos out by name for not posting the night of the Alamo Bowl loss, even though most of you were in San Antonio at the time.

What a dork.

NUBB, Secure NUBB, Cousin NUFB, nom de guerre, Husker88, Big12sportsfan, the list of NUBB sock puppets had to be over a dozen long before greedoor and pinkslip ever showed up on the scene.  I wonder whatever became of that guy?

You seem a little angry. I think its because you support a team that has never won a national championship... in anything.... ever...

Haven't even come close really.

No, you should for making a dumbass statement.

Remember, NC's really don't apply to you because you weren't even really human the last time ku won it.    Since then, you've come close once, only to be embarrassed by a lesser talented team.   Don't even go to football.   You couldn't even come close.

Does anyone else go back to the pre-Austin 360 days?  I don't even remember the name of the board (if you want ot call it that), but it was formed when the idea of the Big 12 conference was being discussed and refered to it as the "Waylon and Willie Cold Beer and Chili Conference".  Damn I'm old.

but go pry witch and the mismanagement man away from powercat and all will be forgiven.
