Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - Sensei - 02-07-2022
What was the absolute bottom of the barrel
message board you have visited and what was
the best (excluding this one)?
Chiefsplanet was ridiculously bad imo.
The Colts boards seemed fine imo.
What say you?

Chiefsplanet agree 100%. Between the outright wishing of injury on the opposition and the complete inability to fathom their team losing to the Bengals not once but TWICE, those guys take the cake for me. Steelers can be pretty bad, but they seem a little more self aware of how absurd they might be (which is crazy to say there's fans less self-aware than them).
Best is obviously Bengals Board :)

Chiefsplanet is pretty bad. Poorly organized, rude posters, etc
I like this one from the Bills. It reminds me a lot of this one (which totally rocks!). It is organized well, there are an intelligent team and NFL discussions, no one is truly delusional, etc. https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/forum/1-the-stadium-wall
Some like the Texans boards are simply sad...no one posts at all

Finheaven has some funny and insightful posters.
PatsFans is full of psuedointellectuals and people with gigantic ***** chips on their shoulder against the NFL even though they got away with a ton
Commanders' official forum is pretty good.
Falcons official forum has the same handful of posters in every thread.
/r/Ravens is probably the worst of the subreddits.
I lurk NFL boards too much...
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - Benton - 02-07-2022
There's other message boards?
Hmph.
Didn't know their names.
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - fredtoast - 02-07-2022
The Nashville Predators message board was horrible.
Nothing about hockey at all. Just a bunch of photos of underage girls in underwear and handcuffs.

KC boards. By far. Bunch of whiners who have gone so far as to say that Patty threw the game because "they" told him to throw it.

Jeez 2 super bowl appearances 1 win and they think they're NFL royalty. Jeez. They went a very long time without a playoff win as well.
As for other sports, RealGM was the only place online where real basketball discussion took place and still is as far I'm concerned. The Tim Donaghy scandal really damaged NBA talk online.
College football boards tend to be insane, I used to frequent StingTalk but I think most Yellow Jackets have given up on the college football thing after UGA won a natty. The Clemson ones were barely in English. The Rivals boards are barely on topic, but some are recruiting insiders there. In general unless you're a big school, you usually have to go Rivals, just avoid the big general board.
Baseball talk seems to have shifted towards Reddit and other social media, and it usually is of higher quality than most social media talk, maybe because the higher attention span required and older median age.
Soccer is a mixed bag that heavily depends on team, they're usually terrible if they're "big clubs" like Man U and Chelsea but can be OK if its smaller and or non-English. Soccer fans tend to be even bigger homers than the average American sports fan. English speaking PSG fans tend to never be happy, though, even with the league won in a couple of months.
For MMA, Sherdog is the only that still gets posts and it alternates between being hilarious and some of the stupidest shit you've ever read. They are the only sports fans who seem to be honest with themselves about PED use.
Sports fans seem to be the only ones who still use forums. Huh.
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - Science Friction - 02-07-2022
Lot of people on one of the Colts boards were rooting bigtime for the Bengals in both the Titans and Chiefs' games.
Didn't read a single derogatory comment about the Bengals or any of their players. But they can't stand the Titans.

Jacksonville Jaguars is the worst.
Trevor Lawrence can do no wrong, no matter how wretched he plays, and anyone who questions all his stupid picks and lack of even basic accuracy on short throws that backups are making and his inability to read defenses is clearly deluded, insane and looked at like a Flat Earther despite him having the worst rookie season of any starting QB of recent memory and playing at about 30% of the level that Minshew did there.
They were also stupid enough to try and publicly embarrass their billionaire owner by flooding Twitter with a cartoon version of Shad Khan in a clown face and outfit and staging a public protest against his ownership despite the fact that he is the only reason that the Jaguars aren't already relocated and wants the team to stay in Jacksonville. Smart idea. Set your only advocate on fire publicly. That'll show him.
Anyone on this board considered a troublemaking idiot would be the smartest person posting there.

The sad part is they blame Shad when his son Tony does far more damage to their sports teams. Shad is the owner you want. A billionaire who signs checks, they've just had rotten luck with hirings and Tony is in over head.

Damn I thought they’d be ripping on Trevor. Never thought it would be the opposite. I guess they think if he fails then they are really in trouble. Next year should tell the tale of which direction he is going to go.
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - leonardfan40 - 02-07-2022
I don’t know who has the best board, there are a few good ones out there.
Worst by far is the Chiefs though. No competition.
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - Interceptor - 02-07-2022
Worst: ChiefsPlanet
They have more ego than sense, most of them anyway. I know these entitled Karens don't represent all KC fans, but they are the ones who post the most - keyboard commandos hiding behind the screen. Allowing them to spew makes the rest look bad.
The civilized posters were few and far between. These were the ones that knew the AFCCG was no gimmie, and unlike the rest of the board, didn't blame officiating for their losses.
I'm sorry, but I think Patrick Mahomes is a culmination of the good genes in the family, making something of himself knowing every step has to be earned. And all the crap shit genes went to Jackson. That guy is an entitled Karen prime grade scumbag.
Others:
Steelers boards - they weren't hateful nor condescending, at least the one I visited. Not one of them insulted me. Maybe it's against their rules to do so. They run hot and cold about their team, depending if it's a W or L. They react the same way we do in a Loss.
Vikings board - kind of like us, I only visited there to wish Zimmer good luck and hoped he would bring them in a position to fight for a Lombardi.
Packers board - mostly well-mannered, they know what they have in their long, rich history. And they are not condescending about it.
Jaguars board - they usually ignore or act indifferent to anyone outside their zip code. So I took the free coffee and pastry and left.
Seahawks board - you would expect a big ego from this board, but those are few and far between. They are pretty much like us and the Steelers in knowing their own team's strength and weaknesses and have the same reaction to a W or L.
Jets board - a LOT like us.
Browns board - they are using an older forum software and the color scheme (orange lettering on brown background) hurts my eyes.
Bills board - this is a board I can get on with and have a friendly bantering rivalry. They don't have illusions about what team they have. Their current product on the field is playoff worthy and they know it but are not so egotistical about it.

How involved is Tony? Thought he was spending most of his time with AEW?
RE: Worst/best team message boards you have visited? - Tomkat - 02-07-2022
Chiefs Planet is by far the worst... there isn't even a 2nd place.

I haven't looked, but I can't imagine the Eagles message board being very nice, either. After all, they were the team with a jail in the basement of their stadium, just for offenders at ballgames.

This is information I didn't know about, yet sure enough it seems Veteran's Stadium had a jail just as you described. It makes me think the Bengals should have had a counseling center in the basement of Riverfront for fans to access.

Bengals have a jail as well. It's called sitting in the owner's box with Mike Brown.
