Is the old BEAR still around?

yes but no on these boards.

As I read these posts and think about the old site and the comment about shutting the free boards down it reminds me of the time that some Baylorfans posters got all upset about something there and created their own board. I think it was called the green and gold or something like that. It didn't last long simply because it was just a small group that went over there. I think all the people that were a part of the "wolverines" group or whatever. BF was still free so it was competing with an established site but if BF had been pay only I think a lot of people would have switched over.

I think that is what would happen if this site shut the free boards down.

Best post ever. Premium is so worth it.

Thee Bear's Den? I think that was it, and I have a memory of the intentional 2 e's on Thee

I don't seriously think they will shut down the free boards. I do think that sometimes the owners of this site get frustrated with all the whining and petty complaints that are commonplace here. Who can blame them or be surprised? They are as human as all of us. We can be an entitled bunch expected others to do what we cannot: deliver consistent perfection. I guess that's human nature too.

They should learn to vet their content sources or grow thicker skins because if not, expect the criticism to continue.

I don't recall that name. For some reason I really remember something like green gold report.

Drew turned down Kentucky a week ago, and this thread is still going.

You're both right. Thee Bears Den was the Scout site for Baylor that had a limited free community in the early message board days and the one you're talking about (I can't remember the name but the one you mentioned sounds familiar) was created later as a more administration friendly alternative to Baylor fans. Neither ever really competed with Baylor fans in terms of users or traffic.

I vaguely remember that board /forum and if I recall, it didn't last long at all.

It's not even about Drew or UK at this point.

Scott Drew says that while he thought there was a great platform to spread the Culture of JOY at Kentucky, God ultimately called him to stay at Baylor.

"My family loves it here. There's more work to be done. I felt at peace staying here."

Thank you God for making that phone call!

I do not think God used a telephone
