Hi BlueFlame, and thanks. I think I may remember you from possibly the "Orange Mane " board a few years back? Good to see you still around.

Yep that's where I thought I might have seen you before. Hopefully things are going well for you.

Do you still hit the Orange Mane board? There were some funny s.o.b.'s over there. I remember in the days of the old AOL Digital City forums, Some of us used to post there and had some friends with you Bronco fans. Good people. We had some good smack and friendly banter that seems to be missing on a lot of the boards these days. I tried to get on that board the other day after I saw your handle but couldn't. Do you remember Poclman, or OldschoolRaiderfan?

Oh, yeah... I'm still around the Mane... been a member of their mod crew for a while now. It's different these days though... far bigger than any of us ever dreamed it would be... back in the day. In a lot of ways I miss the easy camaraderie of a smaller message board community (like it still is here)...

I do remember Poclman... he's a good guy. Hope all's well with him too. And TheNextStep... he was always a quality poster too. Not sure I had much interaction with OldschoolRaiderfan... but he should sign up here. :)

Lol

It's my opinion that our offense is significantly less potent today than it was yesterday. I suppose two second-rounders is pretty good compensation, but last year's draft effort by McDaniels does very little to inspire confidence that he will get good value out of the picks.

'Course, I've never been totally convinced that McDaniels really knows what he's doing anyway... I rather suspect that he may be in over his head. What one lacks in experience cannot be made up for with arrogance....

Holy Shit Bouty... Poclman  and Old School... That was at Fanhome right?  That's were I remember you from.

You got it Maximus, Fanhome was one of the entities we posted under for a while. Those 2 are both moderators at the Silver and Black board that Scout.com operates. It's a decent board but I like the setup you guys have here as well.

Funny how we all seem to float in and out of each others lives but we never seem to lose our passion for our respective teams

no, I am a german-born guy ... I became a fan through live-broadcasts in Pay TV ... and I am not the only one, there is a huge european raiders-fanbase, at least in the german-speaking countries (germany, austria, swiss) ...

Well, hell, invite them in here. We'd love to hear from our fellow Raider fans from across the pond.
