What about a fitness/health forum?

I was thinking about this and just wondering if RealGM can add a forum devoted to health and fitness. A forum where posters can talk anything health related including workouts, nutrition, and any physical activity in general. I think since this is a basketball forum (primarily, I know it covers every other sport as well) there's bound to be fitness enthusiasts and/or people that want to exercise right? Thoughts?

Thanks Howard, thats all we ask.

Id actually consider being a mod there if it ever eventuated (and of course if i fit the bill).

I keep All Moderator searches close to vest. If someone is on my radar, they are unlikely to know about it. :D

I doubt we will add a Health and Fitness Forum but I never close the door on anything.

I think it is a good idea also. The topic seems to pop up on a regular basis and various members do offer advice (some good, some not so good) when people ask. It would be harder to find for newcomers but someone could always start a thread in the OTB or something and see if it stays afloat. I am sure thre are quite a few members who could acually offer valuable advice to people looking for knowledge.

If there is a thread somewhere that gets really popular, a new board becomes more of a possibility.

We spun off Player Comparisons from the General NBA Forum and Fantasy Basketball Games from the Fantasy Basketball Forum due to interest and like I said, I never close the door on anything.

KingCuban,

That's up to that forum's Moderators.

It will be their choice.

The decision is in the hands of the Off-Topic Forum Moderators.

They can have both topics stuck, one or none.

Are you saying that those flowers I sent meant nothing to you? :angry:

I'm not ruling it out.

For now, it will be an OT thread.
