Kudos @Joe Bryant

Or whoever came up with that one

Love being able to easily find & go through them as I'm watching condensed repays

This is how it used to be about 6-7 years ago. I think they stopped doing it because they forgot to unpin them after the games were over.

Thanks. We'd done them in the past some with mixed results. We stopped not because anyone "forgot" anything but because we weren't sure it's what most people wanted.

Same with the pinned injury threads that I'd started and pinned the last couple of years.

We'll try this week and see how it goes.

The question is how many pinned threads is too many. Right now, it's a huge part of the 1st page.

On my phone I’m seeing 17 pinned and 40 active threads

that’s an OK mix IMO

but obviously I’m just one poster, interested to hear what others think to gauge consensus

I like it. Makes it easier to find.

My suggestion would be leave them pinned for today and once the MNF games are over, let them slide. I'm sure at that point, most will be more interested in waiver wire/individual player discussions.

I'd say only active games. Once the 1 clocks are over, they can be unpinned. Same for the 4 o'clock.

 

[Joe Bryant]

Yes. I know lots of people like to talk about the games the next day.

The question becomes I think do we leave Sunday games pinned all day Monday.

Or maybe unpin all and have a pinned, "next day game discussion" type thread.

To be clear, I'll make the final call and this is not a pure whichever answer gets the most votes is what we'll do. Lots of people won't see the thread or vote.

I want to get feedback and we'll make a call.

That’s what we used to do.

I prefer having them up while I’m watching condensed replays Sun night / Monday then take them down after MNF.

We still have 40 active threads up.

Just one opinion.

Maybe you should pin it.

I'm here on this - unpin the next day, we are "on to MNF" as they say...lol!

I'm good with them pinned. not sure what the best timeframe is for taking them down, but all good on Sundays.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

I like the game threads pinned simply because it separates them from all the player threads which fans want to bump and add observations while the games are playing
I wouldn't go 15-deep
Maybe 1:00 games first, 4:00 games next

I feel like we used to do it that way a while back, it also unites most of the SP on Sundays,

Thanks JB!
