Since I missed the official 3 month notice due to the holiday weekend (I didn't forget to export though) we will kick the countdown off at 88 days!!!
Remember when the NDL used to be cool and we would do a daily countdown of how many days left until NCAA released and a pic of your favorite player in his jersey sporting that number.
TIL, There is a dude named Game Northern and he looks like he is built like Hightower from the Police Academy movies!!
One of my favorite Canes from back in the day and on the flip side of Mr. Northern's build, Horace Copeland!

Imagine how great some of our "new" OOTP guys think the NDL is and they've been here a couple of years. They don't even know what our heyday was like.

imagine the time he took to edit those. I tried it once, just took too long.
Thing I remember most, is Corey and I working the night shift, recording our games, burning them to a CD, bringing them to work so we can watch each other's games at 4am
The dedication levels were like OOTP x1000, it was crazy back then.

I remember when we got fancy towards the end and we wanted to livestream with Nole and he brought his laptop and camera over so we could take a picture of the tv and stream title games.
Watching these videos really brings me back.

the jealousy of knowing someone else had it before you was too much to handle some years.

The hardest part for our current OOTP clan to grasp is that Shel was the anti-OOTP in terms of winning.

Trying to figure out how many active board members we still have.
29 owners
6: very rare posters but check the board: crowes, packsyd, xliq, uf, bigmike, jsence
5: at least mildly active: oracle, bfivl, weasel, tfan, reign
looking at 40 of us...
Its insane looking at some of the heaviest posters and seeing that they haven't visited the boards in YEARS...

Very true.
Though I did get a choker rep there as well for a bit(probably moreso cause you picked me to win it all about 7 years in a row lol), but we finally broke through with back to back titles after about 15 seasons in the league.

Checking the NDL boards is what gets me on the internet to eventually surf around for whatever. it's not 75% of my internet browsing, but I think my browsing would decrease by 75% if it went away.

I contemplated firing up the PS3 for about 3 seconds the other day, but then the baby shit herself and I was busy again
