Yaa, Yaa, lets kick it up people!!!
To start things off, a little scene, including one of my favorite dance performances of all time...
Boy, it’s been a long run, much longer than I expected when I joined SI almost 3 years ago. I’ve come far, and I’ve seen so many around me come just as far, as well as reach higher plateaus. Once just a fish in the sea, I’ve learned so much from the staff over the last year that has considerably helped me in my posting, and the least I can do is let them know that I am thankful for their help.
My stint on SI began 2 years ago. How I came about this glorious fraternity of insomniasts, I can’t quite remember. The earlier I can trace back were my days being bossed around by AE, when he ran the Article Crew. I think he at once called them the Regulators or something, idk. Unfortunately that didn’t work out too well...
At times, I forgot about SI, in fact for a few months I was utterly absent until I googled some sports thingy and SI was on that list of links, and thus my journey was reborn, in such a way I never imagined.
Since then, I’ve gotten to know you all very well, some a bit too well.
Enough of my blabber, i know none of you give a crap about that, except for Maple.
So, LET THE PARTY BEGIN!
Admins/Owners:
Jarrod: J, you’ve done far too much for SI. When I posted my 2k celebration, I had little to say. But with time comes experience, with experience comes knowledge, with knowledge comes leadership, with leadership comes success. You’ve proven that with what you’ve done for SI. Your leadership and ability to run the site as well as take time out of your busy schedule to make renders and cuts, to make signatures and to run the MLB Sim League, is just incredible and unprecedented.
Big Bid’Ness: I still know little about you, but you have kept me in line with your confidence in my ability to moderate the forums of SI and keeping track of my post count, letting me know when I’m sorta falling behind in my activity.
RipCity32: Your everywhere dude. From running SI, to breaking up arguments, to hitting up a 4 hour midnight game of Gears of War 2. You’re tireless, and one of the most dedicated Detroit fans I’ve seen. I mean seriously, I feel your pain with the Lions. I had to go through that with the Knicks…And the smile on your avatar brightens up my day every time I see it, even when my day is already bright….
AE: AE practically deserves his own section on here. One of the premier members of the site, but a Yankee fan… ugh! Has done far too much; from teaching me how to write better, from keeping me and everyone else in line, and for everything he does on SI like the 09 Board Awards and running the NFL Sim League. You’re a workhorse…
Moderators:
Pugz: I originally intended for a Global Moderators section, but its just you and me, so that would have taken up room. Pugz, my partner in crime, I don’t think I see anyone else on SI online as much as you. Huge fan of all sports, certainly not a homer. …That’s all I got…
Frontpage Stardom: A huge lover of the Mets, and mainly all NY Sports. Still new to the staff, but certainly knows his Baseball. Very knowledgeable and shows all the qualities of a leader. Great guy to have on the staff, looking forward to getting to know you even better.
McCoy4Heisman: One of the best NCAA posters on SI, which is always good to have, always good… Really brings a lot to this site with his knowledge of the sport and teams.
.nerd: I don’t care much for nerds, but I’ll probably be working for one some day, unless of course I go into firefighting. Anyhow, one of the more musical members (not sure if rap and hip hop is music) on SI and great with keeping the CT moving along.
Baggino: Aaay, Mr. Sophisticated. You’re the man Baggs, always giving us your knowledge of college and life (like I always say, never know what to say…)
Mexi: Great poster on SI, can be considered one of the most knowledgeable NBA guys on here. Die hard fan of that and many other sports. SI wouldnt be the same without him.
Gtown, Great poster and has really made a name for himself, quickly becoming Maples replacement. Has a bright future here at SI, looking forward to working on staff with him for a long time.
The Other People:
MapleLeaf: Maple is a member who has reached a level I never want to reach. Great member, one of SI's finest. He'll be around here hopefully for another 50k and I'm glad that I know him, for my life would probably be slightly less functional if I didn't.
Dork: Finish my dam Fonzie sig so I can present me "new" look.
.loggie: Your a great sig guy but I just dont see you around too often, maybe ur out busy making sigs, idk. Or maybe you changed your name as well, I cant keep up with all the changes.
vikesfan: Easily one of the premier cutters on SI, always makes sure the work he gets is the work he hands out.. ok that made no sense. Great to have u around bud.
Super Mario: Or whatever the hell your name is these days. Very knowledgeable poster on SI and has improved at almost the same rate as I have, and I feel quite confident that one day he will be a moderator on SI, possibly even a G-Mod.
Macken: Although not our most talented GFX crew members, Mack is always helpful in other areas, as well as being a leader of the GFX area, which goes to show you you don't gotta be the brightest or the most skilled to lead a group of misfits.
kdogg: One of the top NCAA posters on SI, and despite your age you show the likes of a true leader and a helpful person. Your going to be a valuable part of SI in a year or two, I can guarantee it.
Elcheato: I don't got a clue what the name means, but that doesnt change your graphing skills. Great guy, great poster, die hard fan.
Bibby.10: I got some big shoes that I'm filling, your a true staff member on any forum with your dedication and leadership abilities. Wish I saw you around more, but I think youll come around sooner or later.
ChiefWahoo: Huge Indians fan, and that says a lot. Very dedicated and skilled GFX guy, but I wish I saw more of the guy.
JH5: Great member, very musical and comical, definetely someone to chill with in the CT when your day sucked.
Dez: My buddy, a Giants fan... Papoose. How I still even remember that name idk. Wish you werent so busy and were around here more often. Die hard NY sports fan, very dedicated to his teams.
ZigZag: A great poster and a great guy, dont see him around as often as I used to. Wish i had more to say...
Kraig: FOunder of SI, still hangs around here talkin smack and all... seems to like posting 4 1liners....
BKS: Whaaats happenin....
Rios: Awesome member whose making a quick rise through the ranks of SI with his great posting and outstanding activity.
Palmer9Ryan2: Ah, almodt forgot about you. Great poster and "die hard" Bengals fan. I mean really, i feel ur pain. WIsh you were here more often...
.snowy: Big sports fan, great poster, one of the top SI posters, etc.
Yankees: Huge Yankees and Panthers fan, long-time member of SI. Despite some incidents and "im done"s, hes still one of the premier members and will always be remembered on SI, for the good, not the bad.
The guys that once were...
.......
X-Factor
Sabbath
Werebarret
DJT
VC15
AirForceFLash
Captain Cronic
Instant Classic
Andris Biedrins
And thats just about it. Hope I didnt forget anyone that might cry if I did. If i didnt include you, i dont see enough of you or just got tired of typing. Could be a bit of both, idk.
And now I exit this thread with my signature text
