The following is a user generated WIKI. The official SicEm365 staff has nothing to do with this but might make them laugh a bit.
Welcome to the Free Board. In order to help new visitors understand much of the content posted here, you have to realize that the vast majority of the people posting on the free board have reason to want to do the school harm. If they actually cared about the school, they would pay the equivalent cost of two lattes a month to join the masses over on the premium board where constructive conversation about the direction of the school is happening literally on a minute-by-minute basis. They have no such interest (or frankly just don't have the scratch to pay).
As a new reader, this will also save you from having to go back and re-read all posts filled with hate and better understand why a certain handful of haters post their hate at Baylor, Matt Rhule and our football program here on the Free Board. As we discover additional motivational sources for their hate, we will add those categories and update this Free Board WIKI.
In order to better understand their motivations as you read their posts, the following guide should come in handy. Enjoy.
Categories (current as of 12/7/2017):
(1) Economic Losers -- these are season ticket holders whose season tickets are now worth actual face value or less -- many of these are current or former professors who used to be able buy low and sell high. They also hate the fact that college coaches make way more than they did (or do now). They consider it a travesty of the highest order -- unless it makes their tickets valuable for resale -- in which case it is fine.
(2) Economic Opportunists -- mostly just desperate plaintiffs lawyers at this point. Some have been outed or self-identified here. They think the Free Board is a highway and they can be a "Call A Lawyer" billboard on such highway.
(3) CABers -- former Briles staffers, families and friends who post under fake names here pretending to care about the school when they want to do it harm -- many have been outed here. Most tried to get coaching jobs at other schools but it didn't work out. They and their families are still upset about this. They are quickly joining category 1 (see above) as the money runs out. This makes them angry and feel the need to post here to harm Baylor.
(4) Fake Alumni (Trolls) -- people who post as if they attended Baylor but are clearly trolling on the free board and post hate to try to harm Rhule's recovery effort. Other schools preferred it when Baylor was the doormat of the conference. As people see Rhule's recruiting prowess build, they come here to try to poison his recovery effort.
(5) Plain Old Losers -- Baylor is a great place but not immune to having graduated a loser or two. Some of these people even played football at Baylor (especially sad cases). Every school has 'em. These are alumni who probably have sucky jobs and they bring their hate here. They probably beat their dog and slap their kids too. I know, it's sad but it happens at pretty much every school. Even Baylor.
We will keep coming back to update these categories to help you better understand what's behind 100% of the Free Board postings. Enjoy.
