Bring an argument.
Not a target.

Disagree with the take. Respect the person.

Optimists, skeptics, old hands, and brand-new fans are welcome. Explain what you see. Ask the question. Nobody has to pass an entrance exam.

A little loud is fine. Cruel isn’t.

Natural profanity and football humor belong here. Slurs, threats, harassment, doxxing, and dragging someone’s family or private life into an argument do not.

The self-own counts.

Laugh at the emotional journey of a game, including the host’s. Don’t organize a pile-on. Someone declining to be part of a joke ends that joke at their expense.

Share what’s yours to share.

Original memories and properly credited sources are welcome. No copied articles, unauthorized game streams, pirated clips, spam, or someone else’s private information.

Your memory stays yours.

Stories submitted to the memory bank are held for editorial review. Permission to feature a story is a separate choice. You can withdraw your own submission from the memory bank page.

Football is the reason we’re here.

Keep off-site grievances out of the room. Moderation concerns conduct, not whether you agree with The Grateful Head.
