It's still a better site than others even if numbers have dwindled.

It's still hangin' in and being a good site.

However, I have been quite irritated when the site has gone down the last few times recently.

What is the backstory of JJHuddle? I joined the Huddle in 2000 and used to really like it. I know it started to charge money and that's when it fell apart. What I don't know is who owns it and how do they respond to the total wreckage of the site?

Yes JJ took their $12 and went home. Still lots of good topics on here mainly on Pro Sports and College Football & Basketball and most of the discussions are very civil. The High School sports talk on here is almost non-existant and I'm not sure that that is a bad thing.

Yeah, apparently last September or so. I didn't know that.

Heh, dumbasses pissed off a lot of their user base, who created their own site and that new site out-lasted the old one. All is as it should be!

Not sure, Justin, HR?

Leadership on this site has always been suspect at best.

I think its a good thing, since 99% of the users on here are out of college now...

I don't know why Justin gave admin duties to somebody who wasn't/isn't as active as the rest of us. Perhaps that was a requirement of Justin.
