Please support the Forum by using the Amazon Link this Holiday Season

Amazon has started their Black Friday sales and there are some great deals to be had! As you shop this holiday season, please consider using the forum's Amazon.com link (listed in the menu as "Amazon Link") to add items to your cart and purchase them. The forum gets a small commission from every item sold.

Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3. Same if you buy a Prime membership for someone else as a gift! Trying out or purchasing an Audible membership will earn the forum a few bucks. And creating an Amazon Business account will send a $15 commission our way.

If you have an Amazon Echo, you need a free trial of Amazon Music!! We will earn $3 and it's free to you!

Your personal information is completely private, I only get a list of items that were ordered/shipped via the link, no names or locations or anything. This does not cost you anything extra and it helps offset the operating costs of this forum, which include our hosting fees and the yearly registration and licensing fees.

Stay safe and well and thank you for your participation in the Forum and for your support!! --Deborah

  • Breaking News: The Forum Continues

    Thank you all so much for your donations and support in continuing the Forum. I greatly underestimated the number of people who were still vested in this place and thought it wasn't worth putting in the effort to continue with it. I didn't see a way to continue without real financial support and you all came through, bigtime. Thank you so much!

    We raised just about double the amount we had set as our goal, nearing $1,200!

    What this means:

    For me: I commit to investing the time to move us to a new server (and possibly a new host) and will keep things going through at least the 2025 season.

    For you: You commit to participating in discussions and helping keep the Forum worth visiting. Please also continue to use the Amazon link when possible.

    If we become more self-sustaining as we move forward, then I see no reason things won't continue indefinitely.

    Thank you all.

    GO LIONS

    Great to hear. I’m going to do my best to remember to use the forum link moving forward. Wish I had the ability to offer some assistance on the technology side, but that’s just not my bag.

        Great news for the forum......, and great news for the GBU threads. Monday morning entertainment (UK Time) continues. Fantastic job by all.

          Great news Deb ...... all we need now is to ban The Wizard from the Michigan Football Forum. That would be an immense improvement in functionality.
          Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

                We have all suffered through the rough years.
                Nice to know we’ll be able to celebrate when the Lions finally won a Super Bowl

                    Once more thank you Deb!

                    I think all of us in a way took your effort running the forum a bit as granted.

                    I'll keep it as I decided to start to do last year. My anual donation is a bit like paying NFL Gamepass. Mean it in a good way.

                          How would you say something like that to a non binary person?

                          “Aww, YES! You da they/them.”

                              Hey, everyone. I am hoping to move us to a new server and host today or tomorrow. You can expect some wonkiness during that time. The site may not load or be outdated or the Forum may be in "closed" mode as backups are made and data is transferred.

                              Bottom line: If you experience a problem in the coming days, do not fear, we will be back!
