Best thread from your board 

Post#1 » by Nothingface » Sun Aug 30, 2009 7:37 pm

A classic thread was resurrected recently on the Raptors board, which got me wondering what great threads am I missing from other boards.

The thread I mention is:

"MS Paint Sam a Playbook"
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=855652

List your favourite threads, and maybe in a week or two, we can have a poll and nominate the all time best thread on RealGM. (or at least since the board was reset)

Magic board: Official Travis Diener Bandwagon thread

(No longer online)

That Raps thread you posted is good, but I think the best one on there were the Abercrombie thread or the panac one.

It's definitely the Abercrombie thread for the Raptors board. I learned what a real American Dream is.

I am.. American
thus this was like.. our dream over there.. when we get to high school to work for Abercrombie..
We moved here when I was 11 so I never got to follow that through
To you Abercrombie is a store.. opening up at Eatons and Sherway
To me Abercrombie is a life style.


viewtopic.php?t=553640 is the original link but it's gone. I wonder if there's a cached link to it

This isn't going to work if all the best threads are no longer available!

I but someone has them archived somewhere...

Maybe I should have called this thread "Which thread do you want brought back from the dead?".

I also nominate the Diener worship thread as the greatest of all. Although the Darko pix thread gave it a run for his money, in the end Diener still rules.

IF all you non-magic fans read it im sure you would be a convert too

One that quickly comes to mind was the "White Guy Guarding Ajinca" thread on the Raps board.

The Michael Ruffin Shrine bounced around from board to board, that one was fun.
The Ha Thread is classic.
Draw Things On Scott Skiles Amazing Forehead on the Bulls board is another winner.

To me it's Church of Okur in the Jazz boards. Before that I'd no idea what realgm was!

Unfortunately it's not available anymore: viewtopic.php?t=620326

Church of Okur rules:
1. We will not shave
2. We will never eat Turkey meat
3. We will bowdown to the direction of Turkey every 2 hours
4. We will all have Miss Turkey as our wives
5. We will always shoot threes not two

It got deleted in the server upgrade. It was like 120 pages of Ha photoshops, most of which were really well done.
