great post mush...I for one can honestly say I miss the contributions you used to make daily to the huddle...now it's a pleasant surprise to see you post at all.  Too many people fall into that category these days unfortunately.

 

 

I remember years ago getting booked for a training session down in South Carolina.  I was already a member here but I'd never been out that way or met anyone from here.  The welcome I received when I got to town was unforgettable.  A night out with a few of the regulars, tailgate on gameday, ticket with the lovely Miss Skyy, hell, I even wore a Steve Smith jersey to the game (overtop my Seahawk shirt) to watch the panthers beat the falcons.

 

I've been back twice since and loved every minute of my time there.

 

this was a very different website back then, that's for sure.  seemed to have more focus on getting to know people and making friendships etc....I'm sure that still happens today too, but not as much in my opinion.

 

I'll add to your trip down memory lane....the huddle...where only a Canadian Seahawk fan would be a Survivor Champion, still to be defeated by the way.....named a Mod, and of course, the huddler of the decade award winner.

Little PANTHERS Huddle cookout from 2005.

 

that's a great picture of some great posters right there.  I hung out with Jesterhawk a couple months back in Seattle as we were both standing up at a mutual friends wedding....fun times.

The Lounge used to be absolutely crazy with activity as early as a few years ago. Maybe I just don't come in as much, but it doesn't seem that it's as active. 

There were several dark moments and terrible users/threads. The massive crash.

There was also the reaction to Pickles that lead to the largest schism between users I've ever seen (perhaps rivaled by the split of opinion on Cam pre-draft). 

The TB has a history as well. Rebel Yell (lol). 

 

Also where you store the butter.

Fact: I have changed my name too much for anyone to know who I am...or care for that matter haha

Nobody changes their username more than uncle wet poots or dex. Those guys have some serious insecurities or something.

We used to put shrimp tails in the back of Zod's truck at tailgates.  Me and Panthro would launch eggs at opposing fans on the street.  Jase shops at the Food Lion by my house.  My kids remember going to Buddha's birthday party.  My wife used to think I was weird for meeting internet strangers off this website at various events, and now she has many friends off this site.  Go To Girl baked my daughter a cake one year for her birthday.  Several members have bought cars from me at my car lot.  Seems like within the first two years of being on this site I had personally met well over 100 users.  I met them in Seattle, Las Vegas, talked to one on the phone in Australia when I was there.

 

I've gone to NASCAR races with JBro, Squirrel, Scrum, cooter, Jrockets, and others whose names escape me.   Met members in Cleveland for drinks before a game, went out with Cooter and Hawk one night in Charlotte and had a whole bar convinced he was an NHL player and had many, many times out drinking with tons of different members, and have many people on here I consider a good friends and people.

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
