    Over 16,000 views, most looked at basketball thread on this sight by far. I think the Steubenville football thread at 12,000 plus is second overall. Nearly 5 months since Flash opened it in November. Time to change site name to Orrville chatter.com :)
  • Flash
    Girls basketball - Orrville has the highest post count and views also.
  • RedRider1
    No wonder JJ is crashing....no more Orrville posters.

    orrvillechatter.com....I like it.

    I bet we could do that.....I could host it on my domain. :)

    Then I could make the rules. ;)
  • rrfan
    Redrider1 I want a cut of the profits on that. Lol!
  • RedRider1
    rrfan,
    Same salary as I get doing the blog. $0

    But I expect a 200% raise to be coming down the pike any day now.

    and besides, it was riders1's idea. We'll have to discuss this at our next meeting. Let's meet at Goodtimes Restaurant. No....Sir Penguin. Wait....Brett's. Yes...let's meet at Brett's. Curly fries for all.

    Wow, I am hungry for popcorn at Goodtimes while waiting, and I could really eat a Brettburger right now, or maybe up the street at the KFC for some chicken :D
  • RedRider1
    KFC....yes. I remember that when I was a kid...we went to go there for dinner one day, and it was just gone.

    Bobs Meat Market took it's place and was awesome too.

    I still get hungry for a Hardee's peach shake each time I walk into Senor Panchos.
  • 5knots
    I deserve a cut also! I'll think of a reason soon.....haha
  • rrfan
    Bretts curly fries...I do miss those.

    Wasn't it Clancy's before Bretts ? How many restaurants have been in that building? I can think of about 4.
  • RedRider1
    I remember Brett's, Bangkok House and East of Chicago. Don't remember Clancy's (before my time).....if you say so, then that's 4.
  • BRF
    You youngsters, I tell ya! I do believe that the building was originally a Hardees (sponsored a softball team for high school guys who are now in their 50's). Clancy's was the original tenant in the Dairy Queen building. What a turn this thread has taken! I'll bet the thread views number slows down a lot now!

    Ah, the historian strikes our memory banks again, now I remember the original Hardee's and Clancy's across the street. Next you'll tell me MacDonald's was down by Buehler's. :D
  • imjustme
    Clancy's is definitely before our time RR1...LOL...My mom remembers it though :)
  • Flash
    Lyle Baker who is a city council man and works at Quality was the manager for a long time. That was when I was a JC.
  • BRF
    They won't know what a JC was, Flash! I remember when we got that first McDonalds, everybody thought we had become the "cat's meow"!
  • BRF
    Well, I guess I killed this thread.

    But, we sure did have a great run.......eh?

    I enjoyed RR1's OrrViews article on "The Ride".

    And best wishes to him in his new writing adventures.
  • rrfan
    I second that BRF!

    Good Luck to RR1.

    Great day for a former Orrville basketball and football player last night. Tim Hiller, you have a whole town behind you. We are all proud of you and wish you good luck at the next level. I am now a Colts fan. Congrats to Tim an NFL player.

    So happy for him....I remember on the old JJ site, there was a guy who was so anti-Hiller you'd think Tim ran over his dog. Just had nothing nice to say about him.

    I hope that guy is seeing where Tim is now.
  • rrfan
    Rr1- do share who might that have been?
  • RedRider1
    His handle was WCALfan or something like that.....dont know if he's still around or not....i bet 1_beast might know him.

    He was my first internet "enemy." I couldnt talk enough sense into him. He was a classic hater.
  • rrfan
    Ahhh yes WCALfan...I remember that thorn.

    Man is it quiet one here.
