My Lord! I can't believe no one has suggested some sort of get together. Perhaps a tailgate next year. If I recall, most of us provided an e-mail address when we registered.
I debated whether or not to respond......not explaining why. Suffice to say, above and beyond the Skins banter, I crossed paths with Boone and OM early on in their journey through the dark byways of on-line sports communities. Can't recall the forumn. I rememner characters like Art and his "swarm". It was fun for me to watch Boone's journey fulfilling a dream. I too was a refugee from the ego driven blowhards at ES. Some of the sharp edges were a residual carry-over from that site - for which I inevitably served my time in the BGO penalty box. But Boone, a better man than most, welcomed me back to his cyber house with dignity and kindness. And that, above all else, will be my lasting memory.
Thank you Boone. You tried to manage human behavior, sometimes successfully, because you had to to maintain a culture of civility and respect. You provided vistas into your life and how you looked at the world. We got to watch you reveal your emotions. You provided a platform for us to share ours.
Bravo Zulu my friend! You made our lives richer (even if we made yours poorer...pocketbook wise that is). A respectful hat tip to you.
