Does anyone else think its kind of ridiculous that I have to scroll down past the sticky threads about the Giants, Yankees and Mets before we get to NBA and Knicks things?

I'm a big sports fans and for other sports I go to other sites/blogs/forums. I understand if something big happens we're all fans and it might get thrown in as on "OT" and we end up talking about it, but to have it always up here kind of takes away from what UK is all about.

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I wanted to voice my opinion and see what others think.

I guess its a trade off between having a stickied thread, or having a Giants/Yankees/Mets thread pop up every so often in the forum.

I'm curious to see what other people think as well.

I don't mind talking about them in OT forum, but a lot of people start the threads in the main forum so as to get more views. I know a lot of people don't check the OT forum at all. I do agree its better than having several threads poppping up, but once Knicks news starts coming in, they should probably be taken down.

The Yankee one is the only one I use but I don't mind having all of them. In fact, I really like having the Yankee one and I assume other people like the other threads.

They are bothering me too. I don't mind the OT threads in the off season but the sticky OT threads are annoying.

I guess we could go with letting some of the popular OT threads keep in the Knicks forum during the offseason and then start to move them when training camp hits.

Could they somehow be stickied at the *bottom* of the first page? (Or maybe as like the 7th or 8th threads that appear? Then the most popular basketball threads would still be at the top of the page. Just a thought.

Just leave it. OT threads are fun and besides this is the off-season.

When the NBA stuff starts rolling we will be too into the knicks to post off-topic. Game threads, day after threads, fire isiah threads, live from etc threads....

No need to get all political up in here. Just let the board play out the way it is. Its fine.

Martin Some of my O T's are good convo, but will never get read in O.T

that's the only reason why I would put them there.

When i put them directly in OT many who would join the conversation wouldn't even read them.

Now when the season comes up around training camp I wouldn't even put them in the knicks talk thread. hope this explains it.

playa, you should qualify your statements like this: I think Some of my O T's are good convo

If you haven't gotten the knack of what type of OT thread we have in the Knicks forum then I guess you won't learn. It's also a little bit about trying to get the OT forum some traffic.

I have no problem with the other sports threads during the offseason. Most of the time we are repeating the same stuff over and over again. Once the season starts though I don't want any idiot Yankee fans in my way as I talk Knicks talk
I just hope that people will like me

If the yanks sign Jesus Christ to play center field I think that's big news. It should be posted in the man forum.

Nobody goes to the "other" forums on this site. I know I don't. Anything that's worth talking about should be right here in the main forum. After a while Martin and Andrew can move them like they always do. Its all good.

I actually just bookmark this forum rather than the main page. I think that's probably what everyone does. If there was a UK Yankee forum, I'd use it and I suspect it would get a lot of use, but I suppose an "UltimateKnicks Yankees forum" sounds strange!

Someone please sticky this thread
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

How can you not look at the main page. That banner is so sexy!!! Whoever designed it must be an uber-talent...

Relax...I have the banner set up as my wallpaper on every computer in my office!

Maybe...
