Can someone remind me why so many of us old timers joined Peeg’s back in 2001?

You got the message You were scared he was going to take your mod status away.
Does anyone want to know why I joined peegs?
I joined to see if anyone else thought Crean was a idiot.
There were quite a few posters that felt the same way. But peegs always defended him.
This peegs guy sounds like a dummy.
Although given the last 7 years, I'm not sure Crean would have done worse.
He got everyone paying him monthly like cult followers for his morsels of made up inside information. He was pretty savvy. If memory serves he had an mba from UF. Honestly getting all that going then was something. Pretty fwd thinking
And got out a few years ago at the right time.
I can give you an example of how dumb peegs was, he made goat a moderator!
He didn’t want to ruffle any feathers at IU, at the risk of losing any access and incurring any wrath from the university. Thus, you had to be careful with any criticism.
Peegs was stuck with a business model that required the IU admin to like him, but also required him to earn advertising and subscription money off a bunch of unruly fans whose sometimes asinine comments were read by recruits and families, not to mention players and coaches themselves sometimes. So he didn't let us really say what we actually thought about Crean. It's probably one of the reasons the OTF gradually died out, because a lot of the posters who really drove that forum ended up going elsewhere so they could rant about Crean without limitation.
Edit: At least, that's one possible explanation of one particular cause. However, we all know it is gospel truth that what really killed the OTF was the end of Thread View.

You were single and too cheap to pay for match.com? Honestly, I commend you for being a visionary. Your only competition was Zeke and there are a lot of sexy dudes on here. 3 of the Dream Team members were back up dancers in Magic Mike.
Some things never change
A year too soon, or a year too late? Indiana wanted no part of these questions last season.
You have heard me talk about the article posted a year ago regarding the tenuous situation of Mike Woodson as Indiana's basketball coach. While many of us already thought the current move should have happened after last season, Indiana athletics did not want to deal with those questions and...

I think Peegs used to be on the IU swim team.
He stiffed me on a T-shirt. I invited him to a table I got for a Cam Cameron pre-season luncheon, because I wanted him to give more coverage to football. SOB shows up, eats his lunch, tells me he'll send me a t-shirt, and leaves. I'm still waiting on my t-shirt. lol

Truth. I got a note from him one time, telling me he was kicking me off because people in the Athletic Department were pressuring him to do so. I was pretty critical of the FB program at the time.
The guy doesn't/didn't know his a--from a hole in the ground when it comes/came to Football. Never has...
Monday night at 9 o’clock I think. Forgot actually I also went to Texas Tech to see Bobby break the record with RMKFan and a few others.
I remember a get together where some of Kyle Hornsby , Dane Fife, and Kirk Haston’s were all there. They all read and posted on the forums.
