Just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed posting on this forum this past season and to thank Wally and the mods

I know with the season over a lot of us will not be around as much until the draft

I came here after Steelers Fever Forum imploded and am awed by the expertise I have seen here

But I am particularly impressed, given what I have seen on SFF and a college basketball site on which I post, with the tone of the comments I have seen after the Denver loss - having the perspective to recognize the good aspects of a season without throwing rocks when the season has ended short of a championship is the exception to posts I usually have seen after season ending  losses in the past on other sports fans forums.

Best regards to everyone  - already looking forward to the draft and next season

Come on everyone, no need to be sad.



With college and other stuff on my plate it sucks that I can't hang out here for hours like I used to, but I'll always make time to pop in and offer my really bad attempts at comedy. Glad I'm on this forum with you guys, we're a brotherhood.

You're still an idiot Fitz. >:(

I would never post again either. As for Hipchest, it's an addition by subtraction in my opinion.

He got banned for making personal attacks on me over and over.

It must have got to his ego.

I'm glad, he was always antagonizing me.
and @Atlanta Dan I know we have had our disagreements in the past but i appreciate you talking to me privately to so we could see eye to eye.

I do enjoy this forum more than the SF forums, it was hostile, some of the mods should not have been mods.

Obviously I have made some controversial posts for fun, to start a convo, and along the way I have pissed some people off, So i've been trying to not press the issue to much.

I will probably be here occasionally for the FA, and draft. and I will probably still post at the round table.

Thanks - after engaging in flame wars at SFF (I always regret not patching things up with the late Hometown Gal (Marianne) when we got into it during the 2008 election), I no longer enjoy napalming bridges to other members.  This is  supposed to be fun.

OTOH maybe I am just getting old.

I wasn't expecting life to hit me as it has, but I fully expected everyone to fit in here just nicely. I'm glad that's exactly what happened, and i'm very proud of this team & forum. Hope to be more involved in the future when things slow down.

Go Steelers!

I do miss sloppy joe and x-box 9000   and Steeldude!  remember Steeldude with the Incredible Hulk picture.  That guy just didn't have a sense of humor.  He seemed like a half way decent guy though.

I missed the whole banning episode, but I thought something must have happened with him.  I have always enjoyed the sarcasm, insight of TH.

As to the OP sentiments, I agree.  I'm a SF castoff, but glad I found this board.  Has the usual knee jerk reactions from week to week, but also a lot of posters that dig deeper into this team, this sport and know their football.  Good season folks, better next year.

I've already got plans to record the Shrine Game, Senior bowl week and Combine, like I do annually in prep for the draft.  I'm a degenerate football junkie and I know it.  As long as it doesn't interfere with my family and my job, its OK.
