I appreciate the spattering of ol' skoolers who thought of the
Chopper. I haven't been around enough to evaluate the young fellas or to make an impression on them either I suppose.
My nominees are the folks that I know and love around here, ol' skoolers just like me. . .
Solid D -- I'm almost as proud of the fact that I suggested his le be "Mr. Dignity" as I am about the whole SPAM thing. I read a
Solid post and I'm either laughing or informed, but regardless I'm always impressed. He's kept me in check on occassion back when I had time to "go off" on a tirade every now and then. I'm sure he'd be one of my best friends if I knew him in the "real" world.
S y -- An amazing woman, you can tell. Great sense of humor. I would be her cyber cabana boy anytime.
Timvp -- At another site, many moons ago, there was this living legend named
Timvp. He wasn't around a whole lot when I first got into the game, but when he'd make an appearance the clouds would open, the seas would part and a hundred naked women would throw rose petals at his feet. His posting was/is the stuff of greatness. I thought to myself, "for a fat white guy computer geek, Timvp knows a lot about the game of basketball (ol skooler inside joke)."
Jim. Anyone who can post 20,000 times in a little over a year while simultaneously performing root canals deserves a vote.
Kori. Voting for the owners of the site isn't kissing ass if you're a charter member, right?
Kori knows her hoops. Combine that with that little angel voice and I've got my very own version of
Chopper porn. . ."
Kori Does Sportscenter". She could just read her version (not the national media version) of the latest basketball news on camera dressed in nothing but a . . . a. . .well I better stop there out of respect for LJ . . .and my pants!
TPark -- His passion has fueled a lot of my posting inspiration over the years but he's one of my favorite folks. He's got a good heart, that comes through. I kid him a lot, but I love him. . .and not in a
GayABC kind of way.
Manny -- Another good egg. Passionate to a fault perhaps, but someone I definitely like.
Exstatic -- Not afraid to call out anyone. Incredibly intelligent. In the
Solid D class of citizen.
Sequspur -- Dumbass. And everyone loves a dumbass.
My
RIP vote goes to
Admiral. My cyber brother who is here less than I am due to medical school. The best of the best.
Newbies Who Can Spell and Semi-Punctuate -- This is a vote for any of the new folks who post something I can actually read and understand. People who know the difference between "To" "Two" and "Too". Who know that a "site" is not a "sight". I give a big amen to coherent sentences.
Ducks -- For never posting anything I could read or understand.
Mouse -- A soap opera, comedy, one-man band. He is the one and only Mouse, plus a hundred other handles, and he's missed when he's missing.
Spurswoman -- Dating the devil is hard, but she makes it look easy.
