Psssst...that's my son with that certain receiver in the Pavillion. A good friend works with him so we got to go have breakfast there.

So billions, dare I say trillions, of dollars have been wasted over time by politicians on the national, state, county and city levels asking (aka campaigning) for votes? No wonder the economy sucks. Think of how much money the world would have if there were just names on a piece of paper and they said "Pick one".

The purpose of the Starting Lineup is to allow your peers an opportunity to give you a virtual "attaboy." In my experience doing the Starting Lineup at another forum where the idea originated, campaigning is viewed as "Please tell me how much you like me." I'd be concerned about a backlash based on that perception, which could cost you a spot you would otherwise have earned.

Wow. I think some people are taking this thing a little too seriously and literally. I made up that 'campaign' message as a tongue-in-cheek gesture at 'trying to sway votes'. Backlash? C'mon...posting pics of me in college when I looked like I was in Jr. High and wearing my son's helmet at a Halloween party...like I said, it was just meant to be fun and an opportunity to post some pics I've had and think are kind of neat/entertaining. Good luck with the rest of the nominating/voting process.

Also...a 'negative' rating on the post. Geez...

Well way to let personal vendettas influence your judgement and not vote based on the facts. (Yes...sarcasm, smiley face, laughing icon here). Where are you from?

What's your 40 time?

Do you ever fumble?

Are you a slasher or a n/s runner?

Well WV...I was trying to be one of your Running Backs. But evidently I went about it in totally the wrong fashion by posting this thread. I will try better next time. BTW...I'm only about 160 lbs so will not make a good O-Lineman on the board team.

Not sure of my 40-time...but I am the fastest one in my house. OK...well...my border collie is probably faster.

The only times I fumble, are when I've had a few beverages...but that's on the weekend, off campus, and I fumble the remote.

I'm a hybrid runner. I do what is necessary...or what is dictated by my wife.
