It's easy to follow megathreads if you read every post. Many people don't. And when you dip into a megathread, you're as likely to find the overdone, board-wide argument of the moment raging (e.g. Alex Smith) as you are to pick up on the latest news.

Here's a basic truth about message boards. Threads are more likely to remain on topic in the first few dozen posts than they are later in their life when hundreds of posts have accumulated. Megathreads drift all over the place, especially when they're based on a broad topic instead of a specific one to begin with.
