/sp/ kinda sucks now.

When it first started, we all had fairly civil discussions about every sport, 18-1 was still funny, and you could still find your thread two days later.

Now every thread I read is filled with people sageing just because they don't like the content, Eurofag vs. Amerifag bullshit, and 18-1 being used in places that don't even make sense.

What the fuck /sp/? I can't be the only one thinking this place has already declined in quality.

In b4 sagebombs, 18-1, and BAWWWW posts.

Rax Grissman is still acceptable though.

Stop complaining you pussy. You sound like /sp/ is yours. Everybody gets sick of the same shit. Now get back to sportsforum.com

I've realized all this just in the past few days. Almost every thread ends in a flame/sagebomb. It gets annoying.

The only quality threads I see now are the NBA playoff threads, and those die after the game is over.

Never even heard of sportsforum.com. Yes, /sp/ isn't mine but from a perspective of someone who has been here since the old days of /sp/ (the very first trial board that got blown up by Moot's Death Star), it just seems like it has overall declined in quality. Like the shitiness /b/ has leaked in and has given us cancer.

How to fix /sp/:
- Make it clear that /sp/ is not /b/. It's not even /v/. Stop the /b/ullshit.
- Stop the Europe vs. America bullcrap.
- WE WON FIFA is stupid and clogs up /sp/.

Actually, the REAL problem is that too many in /sp/ have lost their sense of humor AND have fallen into the all too common trap of thinking that the Internet is -- let's all say it together now -- serious business (especially ANYWHERE on 4chan). This board still has a small enough population that, if you START a good discussion or post some good original content, it will yield high entertainment dividends either in learning or laughs even though the /b/-like comments and the stupid use of sage. However, if all people are going to do now is bitch and continue to give attention to the "Eurofag vs. Amerifag" stuff and the like, then the BAWWWWWing becomes more of a cancer than the crap you have come to decry. So, as you would be told by any good coach or manager, quit your bellyachin' and go play the game like a MAN!

Frankly, a lot of this would stop if everybody would just face the fact that USA won FIFA.

honestly one of the main problems with /sp/ is that the eurofags think they need 400 god damn threads to talk about one fucking sport.

look i get it, you guys like FOOTBALL. so do i, but you don't need to create 5 pages of threads to discuss the one sport. /sp/ is supposed to be a broad board that covers every sport, not just to talk about how john terry fell down of c. ronaldo is a faggot

/sp/ died when the NHL playoffs ended. Don't worry, Anon. Things will pick up when the off season trading starts.

anon is right. /sp/ is trying to be /b/

-Too many sage bombs on sports that people dont like
-'My sport is better then yours' bullshit
-What real football is blah blah blah

This is all teh cancer of this board. Its probably going to be taken down cause nothing gets posted. everthing just gets saged.

...with that Im tipping the western bulldogs over Brisbane lions this week :P

saging in /sp/ does nothing but make someone bump out of spite. just let the threads die on their own instead of saging. by saging repeatedly you are infact feeding trolls.

OP hurr to agree.

When I was looking through pages today, I saw shittons of soccer/football threads. Look, I don't care if you like the sport but this is just too much. I remember when those were confined to 200+ posts, which was good.

Plus, you guys got the fucking 100K post. That was and still is bullshit.

Euros twos years WC twos years repeat.

There is always club football from August to May but it doesn't get as many people together supporting one side, and the atmosphere is completely different. But the CL final seemed to have take over /sp/ the day after that happened. John Terry slip and slides etc..

The gamble is worth it, I suppose. You have no idea just how much a boost the Olympics can give to an economy, especially for the smaller nations. Look at Greece.

Rio and Chicago have an advantage in that America (the continents, not the nation) hasn't had an Olympics in a while.

odd numbered years suck for summer soccer for most of the world

MLS games stream to a lot of places in europe during those years.

also, most of Team USA plays in europe, so it doesn't interfere so much with the MLS schedule in world cup years

Team USA will win 2010 cup
