Being relatively new to the group I was sorta thinking that besides a bit of a blip around the beginning of free agency and another around the draft that things would slow down considerably on the site. I know this isn't something that the participants of BTSC don't already acknowledge on a regular basis, but I just want to say how impressed I am by quantity and quality of the information and conversation that has been shared, particularly in the last few weeks.

If I don't check in several times a day I feel like I'm probably going to miss something vital. Props to Blitz and cgolden of course for all the effort you two put into the site. But just as important to the regulars; Lifer, DaTruth, SteelerArk, Chicago, Wolfpack, 5020, Maryrose, Dc, themostviolent, Hinesfield, and several others whose screen names slip my mind at the moment (no disrespect intended). Also a lot of new names have shown up recently. And even Wiggins/Scrabble (for the comic relief). I respect and appreciate the level of thought, analysis, and humor that shows through all of your posts. And, it probably goes without saying for many, but I'll say it anyway; when you reside in enemy territory (anywhere but Pittsburgh) it is so nice to find a haven where people with likeminded passions can gather and struggle with the various issues involved with getting back to the Promised Land.

Thanks guys.
