My 5000th Post

I would like to dedicated my 5000th post to the late Stratoman.

For those of you who remember Stratoman was a member of Extremeksins who passed away in February 2004. Strat was a good friend of mine whom I meet when I lived in Denver. We suffered through the 97 and 98 Seasons together. I kept im touch with him after I left Denver in April 1999 and we spoke regularly on the phone. He told me of Extremeskins.com in the Summer of 2001 and without him I probably would not have never had as much fun celebrating after a big win or venting after a tuff loss.

I remember my first post was a QB Controversy Between Jeff George and Tony Banks in the 01 Preseason. I got jumped on by the vets on the board but I stood my ground pointing out that what is Redskin Football without a QB Controversy. Strat and some of the other members came to my aid though!

I found out about the attacks on 9-11 through Extremeskins and have printed out the post.

I have meet many of you in person at games, in the Seattle Area or even North of the Border. This site has been a blessing the past 5 years and I have visited it almost daily. We are a one of the NFL's Premier Fan Bases and I am proud to be a part of it. :thumbsup:

You know what is funny is when I meet Redman in Arizona after the Cardinal Game and Park City Skins in Seattle before the Seahawk Playoff game the both mentioned that I have been on the board for a long time.

I guess I am an old timer around these parts! :D

Congratulations, bro. I live down in Yelm, and will be moving back into the house after this school year. Jumbo lives over in Olympia, and we'll be getting together for a beer or three next season. You're invited if you want to drive south on I-5 for a pint or two -

Congrats again!

Thanks for the kind words all! It is nice to be inducted into the Ring of Fame and I have chosen the Great Art Monk as my Avatar but it would be nice if we could have a Charles Mann Avatar for the Ring of Famers. :silly:
