The name of the site is an homage to the fact that it's primary contributors were interested in sports, not Black/hip-hop culture.​

It's even more of an homage to symbolize where we came from when we left the :hamster:

The Sports Section was called "The Coliseum"

This is COLI101 man.

It was born outta The Coliseum issues on SOHH

So....

Well, it was actually due to the Great Purge from JBO's 'shenanigans', but the fire was lit when the servers kept getting overloaded whenever a major sporting event was broadcast. That's where the......:hamster:......smiley originated.​

As we move further and further away from the great exodus moments like this thread become more and more frequent. Same like when Chan came threw and crushed the buildings.

The Coli name and logo shall forever remain standing to remind all what we went through to get here. Like the holocaust never forget.:salute:

In the words of the great Rod Serling:

They must remain standing because they are a monument to a moment in time when some men decided to turn the Earth into a graveyard. Into it they shoveled all of their reason, their logic, their knowledge, but worst of all their conscience. And the moment we forget this, the moment we cease to be haunted by its remembrance, then we become the gravediggers. Something to dwell on and to remember, not only in the Twilight Zone but wherever men walk God's Earth."
