For the record, I believe it was Nas or Seacrest who dumped the iconic brand, Chicago Sports Fan Meassge Board.

BRick is an expert at rebranding. From Kramer to B-Rick just because of a joke.

IIRC, the "S" was removed when the former owner tried to complete a hostile takeover after making a deal. I banned him in the middle of his hostile takeover. BRick already had this domain name in his pocket, and he made a generous donation to preserve the community. I believe you all still own score670, but Seacrest couldn't figure out how to link the two places like they once were.

Edit: I just realized the only person I banned created this space. It wasn't permanent.

Similar to the Sears Tower, I still call it that. I imagine MANY do.

It's just a dumb name to change it to.



And you usually don't buy an iconic brand, a monopoly in its field, and then change its name.

But what do I know? Elon is a genius and I'm just a rando using his platform.


I don’t care. I assumed it was his mark. Space X etc. but not Tesla X so who knows?

He's employed as a writer, and let's leave it at that.
