An Ode To Tee et al.

[Shenexon]

This isn't really an ode in technical terms, but I wanted to honor some of the folks that make this a neat place to be. I don't know how I first made my way to Syracusefan.com but it's made a significant difference in MY life.

DCCuse was the first board member I encountered and I was pretty well sold on the people here. Tomcat, Orangeyes, CuseRegular, Bees, CTO, Jake, TexanMark, Rocco, SWC, Javadoc, Dasher, Upperdeck, Toga, Marsh, Francis, RF2044, BillOrange, ReedNY, BlackKnight, Bevo, Jeremy, NKR, Scooch, PauliePeppas, Retro44, OrangeZoo, Jurrie, Capt. Tuttle, Iommi, AirForceOrange, StuckInBig11, EDowd, BBallbeadle, Lawrinson, Arbitrage, KCSU, Imperial, 4Eva, CuseGuy, Jekelish, EAO, Anomander, Whitey, Corduroy, Gilardino, SkiBum, JarHeadJim, OrangePA, OrangeXtreme, SUNasa, CuseTroop, OttoInGrotto among other Ottos, Tree, and many, many other people and the things they write have kept me as a regular reader and occasional poster.

You folks have helped me in a way I can't easily describe and I appreciate it. I owe you. I haven't met many of you but am an admirer. I only listed a few of you and mean no disrespect if I didn't list you individually. YOU are the people that make this place special. As I look at other fan sites I'm impressed by the number of posters and the quality of thought that is expressed on this site. We're among the most active fans I've seen and am honored to be here.

Then some time ago I notice this Tee guy...who is obsessed with liking the things posted by others. I don't believe I've met Tee, but hope to change that sometime this fall. Tee beat me by one like earlier today and I concede victory. You're the wizard of likes and I think you deserve special recognition.

Our teams have their stars and we fans have ours as well. Kudos to all of you that make this place an ongoing event. We're headed into wonderfully optimistic territory in football & basketball and am glad to be along for the ride. Thank you all...

No, thank you man.
This positive vibe has been contagious, and when I do it and make more people happy, I love it, and I get it back in turn.
Want to meet you too!

You, sir, have made a powerful enemy today.

 

[Lawrinson14]

It really is amazing. I'm sure we come from all different walks of life, from all corners of the globe...

But yet this snowy school tucked away in upstate (or western if you prefer) NY brings us all together.

And I know there are very, very few things that we can all agree on, but I think we can all agree that this board and its moderators (CTO, Jake, Bees, etc) provides a great place for all of us to share in our fandom.

And a special shout out to Francis. You really are better than the schlubs that ESPN, rivals, CBS, yahoo, etc, give word space to. And I thank you for sharing your knowledge with all of us.

Although many of us don't know many of the others, we all seem to be here nearly every day. That says something.

To me, it is far and above more enjoyable than Facebook. But I guess that FB has nearly replaced my real life friendships with virtual ones whereas here, I feel as though I have created new friendships. Sure, you can say it's also internet-based, but this is very different in a way, considering most of us didn't know each other to start.

 

[CuseTroop]

Man, I'd be lost without all you guys. I literally have no clue what I would do all day at work if it wasent for this board.

Only God can make a Tee.

Speaking of which, I wonder what has happened to Dick in Michigan. We met at a CSNY concert perhaps 6-7 years ago, and I always enjoyed his posts.

He made a brief cameo a few months ago.

Dear Shenexon, YOU brought me onto this board, I believe, and it is because of you that I purchased season football tickets! I was inspired that you bought them and were going to drive all the way up here, when I live only 3 miles from the Dome. I am even sitting in your section! It is people like you who make this board such a great place to be, after victories and even after losses. ESPECIALLY after losses! Thank you for being you.

I am chagrined that I won't be on the board after our four bball games because I will be in Maine. BUT - the DVR is set and every now and then, a fan must make sacrifices.

 

[4evaOrange]

Man, I'd be lost without all you guys. I literally have no clue what I would do all day at work if it wasent for this board.

You'd be still be googling pictures of JLH and and murming all the time I believe.

Well said Shenexon, well said.

Thanks for your kind words, but it's you and your "ilk" that have made SU the place that it is. I make it to Syracuse for a few games a year, but Beadle and entourage show up every game and make the dome a home. Kudos to you for your loyalty.

i basically spend all my time online on various sports/music message boards and this is easily the best and easily my fav. its no surprise considering 95% of all threads on here end up talking about beer and girls

 

[CorduroyG]

another great thing about this board is ive actually become a bigger cuse hoops fan because of this place. and considering i was so depressed as a 12 year after the richmond loss in 1991 that i didnt go to school the next day thats saying something. that was the start of my 22 year in a row streak of taking off the friday of the 1st round of march madness.

As someone stated before, sure hope he didn't move to Maine or Mass... That makes his handle a little more personal.
