I was thinking baseball. We have a number of people here who really know their baseball. I don’t think we have any genuine scholars of baseball, but as an avid baseball fan I can tell you that there are NO really good baseball discussion boards. The official team forums are a horror. Fanhome has fallen into disuse. The ESPN forums are awful. There are web sites with more baseball knowledge (Baseball Prospectus, etc.) but that’s not a message board.
But maybe there’s a terrific baseball board out there I’ve missed.

Have you tried the Baseball Fever board on the Baseball Almanac site? It’s pretty small but has topics on a lot of subjects from Trivia to Negro Leagues to Coaching Fundamentals and, of course, a topic for all of the major league teams. Even during the heat of post-season play most of the people posting in their rival’s threads have either serious discussions/questions or good-natured ribbing.

Clever catchphrase memes such as Gotcha ya!, Fucko off, My eyes! The goggles, they do nothing!, I for one welcome our new _____ overlords and of course Hi, Opal!
You forgot penis ensues, which should be making it into general speech any day now.

Unfortunately, both of these were borrowed from The Simpsons and cannot be claimed by the SDMB.
However, we certainly have sufficient replacements in “goat felching,” “1920’s Style Death Rays,” “Og [smash!],” and a few others.
