You've Ruined Everything.: Seeing as SpoFi is an online community, I thought I would share this non-sports related link. Which role do you most closely identify with?

After reading that article I am now "The Blind Guy."

Heh. You should have seen the old stylesheet. It was even harder to read, if that's even possible. I really like Jason Scott's writing, but I read his blog much less than I would if he'd switch to black text on white background. On-topic: I'm with hawkguy. I've got close to nothing to contribute here.

I saw that this morning and I'm on the East Coast, so I knew it fr1st!! My fear is that I'm filling the TC role instead of my desired calling.

You know the kind of guy who posts the occasional erudite article, but whose main contribution is usually a smartarse comment on an unrelated topic? Well, that's me.

Not to mention the calm voice of reason, JG, with splashes of humor here and there.

I'm pretty much all of 'em. Depending on my mood. And I haven't posted an FPP since Zeke signed up to coach the Knicks. Yeah, that was a great day.

And I haven't posted an FPP since Zeke signed up to coach the Knicks. All this time, I had that feeling that something just wasn't right. Now I know.

The "Flame Warriors" that Yerfatma links to are awesome. We've got more than a few Evil Clowns around here.

I'd like to think I'm the House Organ Grinder. And the dancing monkey.

...Pangaea broke up. It was all downhill for the continents after that.

I'm not sure I fill any of those roles. I guess I'm just a sports geek who thinks a lot of this place, and I try not to post unless I have something I think is valuable to add to the conversation. It's not always world-moving, but I hope it's usually coherent.
