Actually, you set the mark yourself, baseball_newbie. The measure was the number of replies to original posting. Dagrims was reply #55, so you set the "modern" record for longest running thread on this board yourself with post #57 which was actually reply #56. Congratulations!
56 is a magical number in baseball, by the way, because that is the record for number of consecutive games with at least one hit, set by New York Yankee Joe DiMaggio in 1941. This is a record that many think will never be broken. Alas, yours will be some day, especially if a post like the current "Your Opinions Please" by Marc Duffy ever wanders over here. A new record will be set within hours in that case. However, enjoy your fame for now! Nice going.
