I'm bowing out for now

This thread saddens me. All the best Steve. You are a legend.

It saddens me and inspires me. I joined this virtual community in the mid-90s. Not many other habits have stuck with me for going on 30 years.

I am inspired by the outpouring of warmth and support from a group of people connected mostly through ones and zeroes. I hope when my time comes people will remember me even as half as fondly as they do SWC75 .

Thoughts and prayers to you. You got this

Steve is mentioned in this piece by Nate Mink from 2015.

When and why did Syracuse stop being a football town? A fan, media, players give their takes

Reasons for poor attendance have been well-documented this week, but somewhere in its recent history this became a dilemma.

Steve, I officially joined SyracuseFan in 2011, but had been lurking on it's predecessor sites for years. At my first Fine Mess tailgate I wanted to meet the honchos who make this site click. I found Tomcat, Texan Mark and Bee's and I asked for you too. You're a good man.

Stay strong, bud. I started reading your posts back in the 90s when I was in high school, and I still do today. Thank you for everything.

I hope the hundreds of people who have shared similar sentiments bring you some encouragement, and that you know just how many people find a sense of community here.
