I remember the times when you got more useful info per surfing hour, pre-registration days. This site has really grown over the years.

I was here prior to the '03 season. I know it says i joined in '05 but I had to create a new user name because i forgot my original password and didn't have the same email address to get it.

 

same here. Joined as Lagarz in sept 00, I think I was member # 3500 or so....Now I have tumbled down the seniority list.....

[tampa_fan_01 0]

I've been here since 99-ish, first as a stalker, then as a poster under the names Corsair1122 and Potty_Trained_Goat...disappeared for two years then came back last year after I got hardcore back to FF.....

I've been here since the summer of '06....man, those were the days....

[texasmouth 1]

Close.....I was here around 2000 but never joined the message board. Wish I never had.....so many hours of my life wasted here........

[GhostofMeanMachine99 1]

I think I've been here since '99 (member 450 something). Email addresses/lost passwords forced me to change names a few times (original MeanMachine99, SonofMeanMachine99).

[Franknbeans 46]

I've been a member since forever... it says I joined the same day as megla, but if I'm not mistaken, that was a re-do from the previous version of the forums.

"The days"..........um, you joined like a year ago. Are we living in dog years?

I do agree that even just a year ago there was more "meaningful discussion".

[Chiefs04 0]

Joined as Chiefs 01 in...01...lost my password just said Fockit and reregistered in 04

[cixelsyd 0]

First join in like Oct 2000 as Steve4FB

 

Changed in 01 to Cixelsyd

[Trout_2 0]

ditto.

 

I agree, that is impressive. Don't actually know "Member Number 5" but seems to be someone who was, at the time, on the cusp of something great.

[Bratwurst 0]

Not many people believe this, but I actually suggested UBB to Mike. The message board system he had, you could use any name you wanted. I went by Stuart Pidaso at the time, and someone else stole it. So, as a lifelong Giants Fan, on that fatefull day, I registered Giants Fan. Was, for a long time #56 ... which was sweet, but somehow a few got deleted ... I don't remember Commish at all. And I moved up to #53.

 

But, after 20,000 posts over several years ... I have retired Giants Fan. Mostly .... mostly.

 

And GFIAFP ... will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!

 

Here was my big, controversial prediction back in the day. When Ditka drafted Ricky Williams.

 

"RICKY WILLIAMS WILL BE A BUST!"

 

And then there was, "The Giants will win out, get homefield advantage, and make it to the Superbowl." that was laughed at.

 

Oh and also, "We can't make the playoffs, I hope the Giants just lose the rest of their games and find a way to get Manning in the draft." Buncha Giants fans were mad at me for saying that. "Collins is the future!" STFU.

 

Now this year, I tell people to get Mike Turner and they laugh at me.

 

Here's another prediction. I'ts TATUM in Denver.

[Bratwurst 0]

You know how I know that?

 

Mike Bell is not only a rookie, but he went to Arizona and he wasn't even who people were excited about in Tucson last year. It's Tui time! Let's count all the great players that came out of Arizona in the past 15 YEARS!

 

You've got Teddy Bruschi .... and ....

 

Well the basketball team is AWESOME!

 

 

Kenny Lofton played both Basketball and Baseball ... prolly would play football well too.

 

Oh yeah ... Trung Canidate!

 

Perfect example ... Trung Canidate ... he was way better than Bell. It's TATUM TIME!

Since 98, before the required email addy to register and the new format.

 

Member No. 5

 

Man, that gives me goosebumps!

 

What was it like watching Jim Brown play? Where was you at when Lennon got shot? Was you amazed when we landed on the moon? Did you really have to walk five miles to school up an incline both ways when you were a kid?

 

You are the grandfather champ of the boards!!

[IAMWood 6]

It took me a couple of days to figure out how to register.

 

[adidas 2]

I have been on the boards since it's inception. Then Mike decided to make us register and actually do some work.....bah! I have been around as long as friggin Moses.

Did someone say grandfather? Both of mine are/were WW2 Vets. One was a Lieutenant Colnel in the Army. Loved and married one woman he was with for over 50 years, until she died, and I think he's the most honorable man I ever met. My other grandpa is still alive, also with 1 woman almost all his life. He's a horny old bastard now though. It's cute ... to a point. He was not as distinguished. Pretty much got a free boat ride at the end of the war. The other grandfather quit after 19 years because he felt he didn't earn it ... didn't get sent overseas. Yeah ... he's the one with the ironed shirt, standing at attention, he wanted to be there. My father says it's a waste of a career. Quit right before you retire? STUPID!

 

We kinda look alike ... that handsome face and powerfull presence! I'm a little taller and more muscular. You look at this picture ... and tell me who you think the bad-ass is? They are all smart ... but only ONE is a bad-ass!

 

Grandpa Army photo

 

I would assume that was taken somewhere in DC. My greta grandfather pretty much founded the University of Maryland. Go Terps! I've heard I look like him too.

 

He's the one I was named after ... kinda ... a lot to live up to. And he didn't leave me any money! Just family heirlooms. Stuff I can't sell. No ex-wives or kids (I know of) ... I deserve a really hot, but also cool chick. You should see, my grandmother, Dads side ... STUNNING! As a kid I remember finding a wedding photo and saying, "Nana ... look! You were so pretty!" and my grandfather said, "She still is." He really loved her.

Don't bring up 9/11. Thanks.

[davidbostonisgood 2]

I'll admit, , I've only been here since about 06'...............but I'm going to eat at Q'doba today! I'm pretty amped about that.

[Grateful Parrot 0]

Well,...

 

 

 

I'm freaking internet stupid and it took my lazy A$$ till '02 to find this place.

 

 

But man I love it hear and love the bickering of stupid SH!T.

 

 

You guys did a great job with site. I'll buy ya a beer when you get to Nashville.

There was one day, in October of 99 ... when it all became legit!

[Guest tiki_gods]

My first account was in 99 but I lost the login info sometime in early 01.

You bastard, I was wondering where you went.

 

Should be a great, great game this Sunday. I'll be enroute to the beachhouse in OCMD for vacation, but making sure I leave early enough to make kickoff.

Been around since 11/12/99. Member # 657. I rule.

[montana 89]

present & counted for.....sir!

i've been here since 1997 or 1998 - before you had to have a user name & everyone had like 1,000 alias's. LOL! the site has come a long way since, still the best ff site in the world....but unfortunately, we still have the buttholes. i also had another account under "biohazard" but have no idea where that number was (lost password & all that jazz). i was off the site for like a few days back then, came back & it had all changed, you needed email addy, user name, password, etc.... i still see a few of the old bunch on here (using their old names still - meg is an oldie & i remember him from my start on here - he's gotta be one of the founding fathers - LOL!). btw - i started the "homer threads" back in early 2000 where everyone picked a team to report on & they gave stats, weather conditions, local (insider) news from area papers/radio, who to start, projections, & etc.... for some reason it all stopped. the reason why i started that up was that i lived in MONTANA at the time & had no insider info at all because the nearest team was like a 6 hour drive away!
