Seems like a "feel-good" gesture to off-set little things like how, according to Alexa, their yesterday traffic rank was over 200,000 positions worse than the day before. Pay to join and $2 of that $12 goes to a kid who needs assistance! Vets join for free!

By Christmas, David Letterman could do a Top 10 list of ways they've said they screwed up without actually saying it....and he'd probably have to cut 5-15 things out to keep the list at 10.

This is what the Huddle should be. Just a message board to talk sports and other general B.S. They started digging their grave when they thought people actually read and cared about the articles and other content that they started posting over there.

Hey Veterans...you get free membership here as well. :)

Wow...what a nosedive that forum has taken. I guarantee they are kicking themselves over the decision to pay to post.

I remember seeing a thread about that about a week ago. The posters were telling them to do that. I guess they finally started to listen? lol

Can we combine all other Huddle threads into one? I don't normally advocate such a thing but I am over seeing all of them.

Well, that's one way to lock out Steubenville fans.
