The elusive PeterParker told me about this place.

Hard to believe I first logged in 5 years ago this month. Man, I have wasted a lot of time on here!

Confession: I don't keep up with sports much. But as a faculty member, I really wanted to be able to support the Flames. In a conversation with Cider Jim and Flame Convert, I was amazed at how much they knew about the teams, players, etc., so I asked how I could become enlightened myself. They said, "Go to FlameFans.com, man. That'll edumicate ya." (Thus the username "FigurinItOut.")

I've been a lurker but came out of the shadows just to give credit to Cider and Convert for dragging me here. Now, back to the shadows.

Oops! I meant, how much they "knew." :( (Points off for spelling.)

With all due respect, Figure, I don't think that was a direct quote. But welcome aboard. 8)

A hillbilly paraphrase, Cider. We hears it like we understands it. (I'm ready for y'all to learn me all about Flames Nation.)

BUMP

The fall semester starts tomorrow (Aug 22). Have any freshmen or new faculty/staff have discovered this website? Or how about our Wolfpack friends?

jmdickens was telling me about a few transfers for the basketball team. He lead me to believe that he had some inside info for several months, until I realized it was this site. Thanks Dickens , hope your doing well.

I use this site when I talk LU sports, and I say.. " a friend told me". Thank you all for being my friends.

I trick people into thinking I have insider knowledge. In reality, the only thing I have is a computer and lots of fellow LU sports nerds on the other end.
