Everytime I come to the off the court lounge, it's littered with politics. Y'all really have nothing better to talk about than fanboying 60 year old white men and their clicks? It's getting a bit disturbing to see.

This used to be a much more fun subforum.

Lol fukk that stupid idea.

Politics are fickle, they change with the times. So long as we remain loyal to our countries, soldiers like us need nothing to believe in.

Jeff should just make a political forum on the main page... not make it a sub forum of OTC... I think that would make a difference.

Last time they did a political forum that was only accessible through OTC, OTC just died.

Don't make it so you have to click OTC to get to it.

The NBA itself has dragged politics literally on to the court these days. Does it matter if it's in OTC?

OP maybe you are subconsciously striking out at the NBA because your sick of it, and taking it out on the OTC because you don't want to admit the NBA itself has become a political shitshow

We're bringing the fun back. Just deciding which will be the main Off Court Lounge and which will be the subforum.

The only thing is, if you split the forums, regardless of HOW you do it, OTC is going to die for some time... we would just have to be patient and hope that interest drums up over time.

Politics dominates OTC so incredibly hard that I'm not sure most posters associate it with anything but. How many people make non political topics? I dunno. Look at the first page, count em up.

Damn, couldn't even type 'political' without a typo. I've noticed that I make so many more typos than I did when I was 20. Crazy, getting old blows.

The typing speed is still there, but the accuracy and thought processes to make the words come to fruition on the screen are slipping.

The election is 2 months away and there's lots of crazy shit happening. Not surprising that we are talking about it, no?

This forum could easily thrive as a political forum. We already have seen glimpses of this the past couple days
