Was it this thread? http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1481256-392-1.aspx

The URL you list in there is the URL to a particular post, not a thread. The post might have been deleted because it's a reply to your thread, which was SPAM.

I don't see anything in search with "quarterback", so I'm guessing that either I'm not searching correctly or one of the staff accidently deleted the thread instead of the SPAM post. If you have a title, I can better search or look.
