My only gripe is that my eyes have trouble scanning the thread subjects because there is no clear delimiter between threads (or between the pinned vs. unpinned subjects) - but otherwise it works for me. I'll have to play around to see all the new features. Plus I want to beat all y'all with more of Harry's reputation points. :lol:

I'm just finding it unexpectedly difficult to post or to reply to a post. Is it maybe because I'm using IE 6?

Me no likey.

there's nothing like stopping by gmg.com to find thoughtful, constructive posts like this one! thanks for taking the time to make your opinion known. i think i just gave you a reputation point by accident. can i have it back?

i think i will really like the change once i get used to it. mainly, i just trust that those who spend their time organizing this site know more about website management than i do.

Yep. I have the same problem with my IE 6 browser at work. Then again, I probably shouldn't be posting at work. But for the record, I don't like the new set up. Kind of confusing. Collapsed threads, etc. Maybe it will grow on me, but my first reaction was WTF. Still pretty much my feeling.

The light green bars that separate the posts need to be darker in my oppinion. Should be great once all the kinks are worked out.

Yes, Harry suggested I update my browser and that fixed it for me. I could not reply to a post or see the posting box until I updated my browser from IE6 to IE8; now it works fine.

How do you know which version you currently have? Click the "Help" tab up on your browser icon bar next to Tools, then click the dropdown link = "About Internet Explorer" and it will show you what version you're running.

At first I was having a good bit of trouble with the site. Nothing seemed to work for me and I could barely see the wording on the screen. But, I did a little Tweaking in my profile, settings, etc., and things did clear up for me a good bit. I am getting used to the new "look and feel" and I like it. This stuff takes a great deal of work on the part of Harry and the admins, and I, for one, really appreciate all they do for all "us posters". I have PM'd Harry with a couple of questions and he has been both kind and prompt in his replies. If I can "learn" this new set-up, trust me, anyone can.

I would, however, like to see some separation between the thread topics in each area...sort of like before. But, if that's all that I need to "get used to" with the new site, and given all the positive upgrades...well, man, great deal.

I can only imagine the personal time and energy given to maintaining and upgrading and administrating this site. My many many thanks to harry and all the admins for the great job they do.

One more small suggestion - on the second line of the topic heading, the font color needs to be changed when viewing that topic. It looks fine when you're viewing the forum pages to look at the different topic headings but, once you actually click on the thread (and are reading/posting within that thread), the second line converts to a white font and it's very difficult to read on the light-shaded background. Here's an example:

I have fixed this coding issue now Gangrene. The Topic Description should now be in gray. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      The McGill non-TD was 50/50. With my green glasses on, the ball broke the goal line more or less as his knee hit. The problem was that they didn’t call it a TD and therefore harder to call the TD on replay when that close. The real problem is our inability to get TDs when in the redzone, particularly short yardage. Can’t run for one yard and it’s pathetic. Should never need to pass from the one yard line and if we do it should be some kind of play action misdirection to a block and release TE. The play calling in general was terrible this game. The decision making (on sides kick) was even worse. On a related note, the non-fumble and the PI call were ridiculous. I can sort-of, kind-of see the PI call because it was a bang bang play and refs are human, but the fumble was a fumble and they got it wrong live and on replay. The AD needs to file a protest to the league. That ref should be suspended.

      So was the radio play-by-play. Wish there was a video replay for me to see this. I also wish there was better checks-and-balances. In the NFL, can't a team submit a replay of a call to the NFL office for review, even if it doesn't mean a change in the final score? At least there would be some transparency and accountability. Based on the radio play by play, you would think that giving McGill the TD was a no-brainer, and the game might have ended up very differently. An option offense playing from behind is very different from one playing to keep a lead.. (granted, it was still early in our game)

      No moral victories

      We knew this 3-game stretch of Memphis, Tulane and Army would be tough. We lost by 8, 8 and 11 points. We are another year away (with better players and coaches).

      Any way to see the replay?

      Fire the OC. The defense showed up.

      3 times within 15 yards and walking away with 0 points. There is nothing about that that is on the defense. Emmitt is right.
