May I present.........

smsmith40 · March 28th, 2006, 09:17 AM

...................your new owner.

I posted this in the SACD forum but Preds asked me to copy it here too

For those who don't know me, my name is Stephen Smith and I'm an alcoholic........

.....oh, sorry, wrong speech.

I'm 35, I'll have been married for 10 years on RFA decaration day. We have two lovely children, I love all three to death, but yes, I DO play FF to get away from them (j/k).

Seriously, one of the reasons i really liked the CDL is that it wasn't played by obsessive 17 year olds who spend 22 hours a day online. I also work for a living, other than that I am a GREAT leaguemate.

Oh, I also live in the UK and I am always at least 5 hours ahead of you guys. So don't expect too many reply's to that urgent trade request you PM'd me at 5pm.

So other than the fact that I don't spend all day online, I take most weekends off and the fact that I am asleep for most of the time you spend thinking about FF. I am a WONDERFUL addition to you league.

Oh, except for the fact that because I am in the UK, I never see any games on TV.

So, apart form all those things, I feel I can be a real asset round here.

The only other things you need to remember, is that I am a huge Bob Dylan fan and I always lose to Preds

One last thing, this post may have led you to believe that I am a humorous, tolerant kind of guy, who would be hard to offend. And you would be right on almost all subjects.

Other than my nationality.

I am not a Brit, a Limey or god forbid an Englishman. I am a Scotsman. Don't get confused. Get a histroy book or rent Braveheart if you need to find out why this is important.

Have a team name for us yet? A helmet picked out? http://helmet-depot.com/

smsmith40 · March 28th, 2006, 10:07 AM

Preds - This i from another helmet site. Is that OK.

If so, then I present the Black Watch Highlanders

Is that the right image?

smsmith40 · March 28th, 2006, 11:42 AM

Obviously not, it certainly isn't the image that was there when I pressed the send button. Let me try again

smsmith40 · March 28th, 2006, 11:52 AM

Try this instead.

Welcome to the Frenzy!

Way cool to have you. You and I make the "bookends" of the league... from one island to another! My ancestery is both English & Scottish (okay, and a little Irish, too)... a few years ago my wife & I took a pilgrimage to the UK, and went back to the "homeland" of Eyemouth, Scotland where my ancestors hail from. Very cool trip.

I've been married for 16 years... and we have 2 children (Emily, 8 & Ezra, 11 years old). Looking forward to spending time in the league with you, Stephen (or do you prefer "Smitty"?):thumbsup

Welcome, back to the grind!

RHO

Preds will know that I have never signed a post or referred to myself as "smitty". Obviously, I am far too polite to complain, I just accept it as one of his little idiosincracies, (much like his continual choking in the CDL playoffs).

Thank you, however, for your considerate question, Stephen please.

Very nice SMITTY ;)

I deserve the smack for my CDL chokes, but you'll find I'm the biggest Shark in the Frenzy waters too, only I actually WIN titles here
