Thanks Methusadad. I love this thread and such responses. This is the ideal "off season" type of thread, reminds me of the old, old Geocities BB&B board, the first (Thanks again Dawgbytes). Sharing the good memories beats the tar out of all our bickering!!!!:D:D:D

Bulldog
Bulletin
Board
It was a cork board set up in the quad where people literally "posted" notes to it. :-)

I've heard tell that Dawgbytes originally started it all on his Geocities homepage, back in the day.

I think this is a pic from the Louisiana Tech vs. Mississippi Southern game in 1949. Is that Mississippi Southern in the white uniforms?
