I just can't see it being that valuable compared to tb.com.  It wasn't getting much traffic.  I imagine the sale would be based something on how traffic and revenue from the vendors.  I've read that websites can be worth from 2 to 6 times their annual revenue...but it also has to take into account demand and relevance.

Correct - but Jay has a hand in many sites, especially TB.com.

He's an enterprenuer, to be sure.

That's true.  But Shane tried to purchase the site on his own.

I bet TB's.com only has around 200 members today. Even TB.com is way out of wack and maybe only has a few thousand.

The silver lining here is that this is the greatest trolling opportunity of all time.

That's the thing I hate about it: the lost tech...

I've been searching for while on TB.com for something today that I know I would have found right away on TBS.com.  

Sucks  :(

I wonder if there is any way to get "wayback" to fully index/archive the site?

the only thing i am curious about is how much tbs.com sold for
A dollar, one buck, one clam so cheap and they fucked it up in a week


Must have been a LOT for Savino to not sell it to Grimsley.
Yea but the board and the community would have been better off if he did sell to SGRIM but that's just my opinion


i highly doubt he'd let the board run itself the way it was.  i like sgrim and tb.com.
but i don't think we need 3 tb.coms
