a bunch of former One Foot Down writers have left and started their own site.

The Subway Domer has taken over OFD now.

Which writers went to 18 Stripes. Maybe OFD will be readable now.

I thought Whiskey had some affiliation with OFD? Or guest appearances?

There is a "Whiskey" that was mentioned in Josh Vowles' "welcome" article on OFD, as well as one that is mentioned in the "About 18 Stripes" page as a founder of OFD.

Is that a different Whiskey? Or is our Whiskey being modest and under-sold?

Read the first part of the basketball roundtable - liked it. Definitely will be a good forum for that sport.

Different Whiskey.

Ahh, strange and small world of ND site usernames

Different Whiskey.

Often imitated but never duplicated.

Eric, it may not be fit for public consumption, so no big deal if you don't want to get into it... but would you mind shedding some light on what triggered this mass departure from SBNation?

I bet you wanted to adopt more of an NDNation-type vibe, but SBNation made you cater to the pollyannas...

Totally want to emulate NDN!

But seriously, a few reasons. It was always something we wanted to do. We eventually had philosophical differences with SB Nation, we weren't on board with their vision of the future, and the time was right for a bunch of our personal lives. So the positives of moving heavily outweighed the negatives of staying on board.

I stumbled across this site a few hours ago, it looks to be a good read. I tried to register so of course it won't accept my Wordpress ID and password. Odd, because I use it at another Wordpress site all the time. Ah well.

Anyway, it looks like it already has some decent writing.

Oh, that was you eh? At some point we might start podcasting again but we'll see. We stopped knowing we'd be leaving SB Nation but it also takes up a sneaky amount of time to put together each podcast.
