Happy 2 year anniversary!
 

This site will be 2 years old already this month! Thanks to everyone that was involved in keeping the Freaks alive!

Ready to watch the Colts stomp the Texans tomorrow night and make us Freaks proud!

Truly has to be getting close to 20 right? Where we at? 16 years?

Good question, I can’t remember. I was part of the RATS board migration after it got over run with Pats trolls and then got shit down. I can’t even remember when that was.

You are probably right altogether.

I think a lot of us deflected from there and made this our home for good.

It had to be before 2003. Or right at 03

I know that I was on RATS in 2003, and I think I may have been on there as early as '97 or '98.

Before that I was on an AOL Colts forum/board that sucked ass. But, I believe a lot of us migrated to the RATS board.

I think originally Edgeman & Sodapop started it as a Colts and Softball site around 1998 I think Soda mentioned when he, Austin Collie, Pez and I met for the Cowboys game :cool:

I was on RATS first and moved here with everyone else. Don't remember my old username. Glad CF is still going.

November 24 2002 I joined rats after lurking for a long while.

Edgeman posted about this place on rats so I joined. The I got banned from rats and freaks was my spot.

I believe it was 2001 or 2002 when we started up.

I do not like this thread it makes me feel old.

You are old.

I can't recall when I first came here, but it was around the time that Rats went belly up. I was very active on Rats. I'm pretty sure it was on Rats that I coined the phrase The future's so bright, I gotta triple up :cool::cool::cool:

I did that a few years after the first one The future's so bright I gotta :cool:

Anyway, Shrek says it was coined by another, possibly at another site, so I've decided never to use it again rather than get argumentative about it.

I want to hear you guys argue about it.

Crap

See this is funny, because I still consider myself "the new guy."

I was never on RATS, but I found this place... probably around 2004 or so.

I remember that maybe a year or two after I joined this board, I was talking to a guy where I worked one day and we figured out that we were both members here. I said "oh yeah, I used to be ArtificialCrowdNoise88, but now I'm Manning Is Metal."

And he said "Yeah I'm on there too - I'm FatDT."

That was fun.

I was on RATS also.... I found out about this one from Indycolts18to88 or whatever her name was.

I dont think she's on here anymore since Manning left

She was nice but I got no time for a player fan who's not a team fan

She was around after manning

I didn’t know you were manning is metal.

Not long though. She joined the Donk board and spent most of her time there

Although I think she still might be in one of the fantasy leagues on here

I just always thought he was some random asshole. :rolleyes:

Really? I didn’t think she was a mostly manning fan. I remember her getting annoyed with some of the comments people gave her. We picked on her about something but I can’t remember what it was.

I remember you used to give her stick about gaming and being fat....

That sounds like something I would do. What an asshole

I migrated here with the rest of the Rats refugees.....i mostly lurked on both boards since my career was my life. :eek: it was nice having this connection to home especially as I moved around a lot in the last 20 years. Now that I'm working for myself I have more time to contribute. :o

I'm full of surprises

I remembered what I picked on her about but it had nothing to do with the board. It was on a more personal level. I actually liked her and feel bad she’s not here.

And I am pretty sure she was the only girl that asked to see the Indy Amber pics

She made it to the phbb incarnation of the board and had 868 posts over there:

Never did make it over here, though.

Good find.

I’ll send an email and see what’s up
