Will this board be different now that T-Mac is sponsoring it?

    I, for one, love the direction. I think this board has gone overboard in criticizing who is perhaps the greatest guard of all time ( right above Jordan ) and it's really about time start cleaning up.

    Certainly I undertand the financial increase for Clutch was a reason, but I agree with his primary reason: We should never make fun of T-Mac. He is above us. $21 million above us. And we knew our place, we would agree with this direction.

    I can't wait. I can't. The NBA Playoffs comes and goes, but T-Mac's rehabing is forever.

    Viva la T-Mac Fans.

    Yeah. It will have spectacular rise in popularity during the season and then crash during the post season since it has no heart now.

    Ok now I'm confused. I'm pretty sure the OP was being sarcastic in response to the April fools joke, therefore your comment would suggest that you yourself did not catch the sarcasm in the original post. Unless of course you're using the rare and dangerous double sarcasm.

    I wish T-Mac were here to impose his will to us so we would understand :(

    He's a site moderator.

    which could very well mean T-mac is typing those words.

    woah.

    The servers will probably go down more frequently, under the slightest stress. I expect the mods to publicly complain a lot more too.

    Hopefully the site won't be shut down out of nowhere, and we end up hearing about it through Stephen A Smith's blog.

    And so T-MAC waited. And then he turned his face to his people and boldly proclaimed;

    "Stop the bus, we have a straggler..."

    I think the bit about "the playoffs come and go, but T-Mac's rehabbing goes on forever" should tip you off about the OP's intentions.

    I'm king of worried about server performance during the Playoffs. A lot of fans want to get on the site to discuss things at those critical times, and I could see site performance issues at crunch time under the new managment.

    All that being said, I'm hoping TMac can spring for upgrades to handle that additional load. I'm sure he can get the flyest servers money can buy. Even then I still fear microchip fractures, hyperactive fans, and core processors not being up to strength.

    Maybe he can pick up a hoss server from China to float him along. Then TMac can just hang loose and let a dependable machine handle everything.

    TMac's new excuse: I was switching to Linux the last playoffs. That's why we lost.
