LOL a mere youngster!! 44 to 63 went by in a flash!! It accelerates as you get older!!

I used to be older then. I'm younger than that now.

It should be interesting. I bet the avg for this board is in the 50-59 range. Thats where I fall.
But I bet if you went to 247 it would be significantly younger.

Considering the majority of posters are 40 and up, I am surprised the board is not more civil.

I think that the poll may need to be up through the weekend. So far, we're just catching those who can post late on a Wednesday afternoon. I expect the average to go down when the working stiffs get home and skew it away from the geezers.

You expect a bunch of crotchety old farts to be more civil?

i'm older and I fall down, less now than in the past.

Me too - mostly because I don't bother getting back up.

It’s widely played on various stations on Sirius/XM including Tom Petty radio.

Every time I see one of these I find myself scrolling further and further down to find my age group or year of birth.

I just start at the end and work my way up- and not all that far up

I used to have the body of a Greek god. Now I have the body of a goddam Greek.

Change your vote?

In case you have a birthday while you are picking where you fit?

What's your favorite color?
Red.....
No, No,...... Blue!

 

[Ian]

Old farts rule!

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Thanks to my boss, I'm getting younger. Call me Ponce deLeon Pool Boy

I have the body of a Roman god: Bacchus.

When it comes to sports, all rationality and civility is thrown out the window!

What makes you think the 247 board is younger? I have an account there, but I rarely visit. I don’t like how premium posts are mixed in the normal threads but the premium posts are block from view.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

I feel to old .... so I am gonna opt to change my vote.

 

[ILLINOISLION]

At least there’s an age category older than mine.....lots of time the last category is “age 65 and older”!

 

[phillybillyreprise]

What do you mean by “vote”?
I am seventy by longevity. If I had a vote, I would vote to be 30-39.

 

[psuro]

I know it

If you know it then you also know that I did not repeat the lyric correctly.

 

[PSUGrad2006]

A lot of things making sense now.

 

[Lion8286]

The approximate average age of board members was pretty much known after a couple of spirited Ginger or Mary Ann debates.

I was only there for about 6 mos. right after Fitz went over but it just seemed like a younger crowd than here. Seemed like more students.

 

[Marylovesthelions]

Growing old is a very stupid idea. I am 73. I cycled 17 miles and jogged 6 miles today. I have walked 340 miles since Jan 1. Use it or lose it.

 

[Victor E. Bell]

Which one of you guys is this? ****CAUTION: Rated R-LANGUAGE*****

 

[hagberg]

I'm 61 but I identify as 21. If you consider me to be 61, you're guilty of microaggression and I'll need to find a safe place.

£¥€|< you and the £¥€|<ing high horse you £¥€|<ing rode in on. Who the £¥€|< are you to £¥€|<ing call us un-£¥€|<ing civil?!!??

27 here, friends.

Some board regulars just hanging out.

HA - That looks like Harbaugh’s latest recruiting class!

Yeah, it's clearly a younger crowd at 247. I saw a thread there where most had no memories of penn state teams of the mid to late 1990s.

 

[fairgambit]

27 here, friends.

1927?

Aside from having some lapses in memory, that guy seems much younger than 98.

There might actually be a positive correlation between throwing “F bombs” and longevity. I’m going to give it a try.
