I just realized I've been here for just over four years...I couldn't take this more OT than BGD so I'll use this thread to say how glad I am to have found my way here. Even though I haven't been posting as much, I still read the forums every day, and I've been thankful for y'all ever since I merged from the espn forums. BDSF, Strenn, ESPN HOF, Daweez, and many others who don't post here were greeted with warm welcomes from day one. I love that I don't agree with everyone here, this place would be boring if we didn't have so many great takes from different perspectives. Even when I don't like the ish some people say I'm glad that you give me a reason to look at the situation through a different window. I'm not going to agree with you, but you expand my perception, and that's respect.
To all those who frequent the meet ups, y'all are some real cats. You'd think with the way conversations go on the forums some times that there would be controversy, but I've seen nothing but respect, and that's real.
Our passion for the team and the game brought us all together, and we've shown that sports are bigger than the game itself. It's about the unity under common ground between people with different beliefs and backgrounds that makes sports fandom the important part of society that it is. Everyone definitely seems to embrace that here, and that's love.
So let's keep bumping this thread and shaping it into something great, so that some day down the road we can form a new one (hopefully about a Blazer championship). One where we celebrate not just as fans, but as brothers and sisters.
