When you're with your friends watching the game, do you have the time it takes to type out a post and hit the Submit button to react? Or do you just react right away. And when you're out watching the game at the bar and the Cubs give up a few runs in game 130-something, do you melt down, declare that NLCS-caliber teams don't lose to the Nationals and have a hissy fit? Think about how many great posters there are at NSBB. Think about how many of them used to post in game threads during games. Now think about how many of them still post in game threads. Much, much fewer. It's a shame. I don't come to game threads to see how other people react when something happens in the game. I come for analysis and maybe updates. I didn't have access to the game for an hour during work (couldn't listen and Gameday was crashing on my work comp) and I actually chose to not know what was going on in the game rather than have to wade in here. This. When I'm watching the game with my friends, you can be sure as hell I'm not like yelling out a bunch of nonsense about the team or players sucking like some lunatic. I usually roll my eyes at the people who do. In fact, those people frustrate me a lot more than the game, lulz. Hey, just like the game threads....
