I’m sorry but that’s classified info these days. Have you ever seen Dragnet? Names have been changed to protect the innocent (me).I'll bite, what's the original name?

You’re gonna get hit. You’re gonna get bit.BB, please don't sue me. I suggested the "Bulldog Blitz" name to those that started the Rivals board (before Andy took it over).
You can click on the Skuttle Butt links and go back as far as October 1996.Seems like a good time to hop in the Wayback Machine...
Genespage Circa 1998
The oldest Genespage archive is from December of 1998, and the football Skuttle-butt had just been UPDATED!
I was originally the original threedawgnight on jeans. Joined the pack very early with the same user name before switching to Frances Drebin and eventually just Drebin.Trying to remember my old usernames. It’s always been pbrme here. Gene’s was nogooddawg. Rivals, BDJ, and all others were a form of 4tdbundy or fourtdbundy.
I think so. You’d log into your AOL account and see 150 new emails. “Oh crap, what happened?” You’d have to go through each email to follow a thread.Is that deal where you got hundreds of emails per day?
Thanks to the wayback machine, I found said background. lolI recall Gene emailing me and asking how I made the background image appear in my State web links hosted on my neighbors ra.msstate.edu sourced page, sometime in 93 I think. (.html tag. duh! lol)
Dawgnews walked so all these others could run.
- Dawgnews listserv @msstate.edu circa 1993 (maybe 1992).
Maybe you can make a trade for some "free" lessons.I remember back in the late 90s at the MSU Extravaganza in Jackson, Jackie Sherrill recommended GenesPage & my message board career started. I had taken my then young son to a movie & there was a cartoon before the movie with a character catdog who was half cat & half dog & they fought all the time. So I figured patdog would be my name. BTW, is my lifetime membership to Bulldog Junction still valid? I need a refund.

LOL...Biggerfeces was one of my favorite usernames.I was a young lad named BiggerFeces then switched to Henry Kissinger but lost access somehow and became a zombie
VH never forgets but BiggerFeces was responsible for both 24 on English section of ACT and dumbass dubmass.LOL...Biggerfeces was one of my favorite usernames.
Wardlaw still owes me a MSU polo- a promo he was doing to get subscribers the first week or so… lolThere's a thread on the premium board and I did this off of memory. I remember the dumbest_shit.

can someone fill me in on when and how ED got started? Was there a beef or something on here and a faction moved? I have no clue and was curious why there seems to be SP vs ED thing going on besides the obvious business competition aspect.There's a thread on the premium board and I did this off of memory. I remember the dumbest_shit.

I started getting on State message boards around 2012/2013
You kept the receipts. @PaulJones - you should honor this.
very interesting. I remember genspage and getting the recruiting info. It was truly awesome.There's a thread on the premium board and I did this off of memory. I remember the dumbest_shit.

Coach 34 was truly pathetic. he's more positive now . I guess after the near death issue. Irish ( dawgstudent boy. As I understand it ) Really makes this place hard to tune into during every sport season.What year was it when we were blessed with C34 leaving and starting a new board?

Good times back then!!To add a few:
- Dawgnews listserv @msstate.edu circa 1993 (maybe 1992). Gene asked us to "test" his new web page. Little did we know the hell that would be unleashed . . . We also had former DL Eric Dotson on there and a few opposing fans. Great times.
- Also, the Bulldogs-Only Message Board (B.O.M.B.) started back in 1995. Most famous poster on there? Future Gov. Tate Reeves.
Rob is doing well. He has 2 children, one just graduated high school. He’s married to the infamous Lady DawgMan, that'll make you feel old. My first job out of college was in '99 with a startup in Mobile, AL. It turned out to be a great job, but for the first probably 4-5 months I did absolutely nothing while the owner got things up and running. I would sit at my computer for 8 hours hitting refresh on Genespage. Brutal...
I don't think that I ever signed up for premium Gene's at that time, but not 100%. I'm pretty sure that my first subscrition to Gene's was after he moved to Scout. I signed up as a premium member of Rivals starting in probably 2002 or maybe 2003. That is where I heard about sixpack. I wasn't on Gene's then either and didn't know of the events that led to the creation of this board until reading about them here. What ever happened to Rob Harrelson, I wonder?
That site became a cesspool.I have vague memory of using eggbowl.com . That was… something.
