They could have by now at least promoted you to Lieutenant Colonel.I believe I signed up in 2002 or so. Major Applewhite was the QB at Univ of Texas and I hated his guts. I had no idea how often I'd use the site so I randomly went with the name Major Asswipe. That name lasted about a day and the powers that be deleted the non excellent portion. If I knew I'd still be using this board almost 20 years later I may have put more thought into it.

Make this right.So good.
Never knew that or if I did, I'd forgotten.
I had a day or so as **** Vermeil Fan. There was a lot of debate in the thread at the time of what I should change it to. Ultimately, no one was happy.You should have lobbied for "**** Fan."

Who cares?I mostly lurk here so... the simple answer is that my first name is Jerry and my last name ends with G.
The more interesting answer is that I'm known in the FF world as "jerryskids". I compete in IBL for the site formally known as FFLW, against your finest FF owners. The name was a double entendre for my entry into a deep keeper league I inherited which sucked. I had no idea in 2001 that the name would stick. I mean no offense to special needs people. But this is how the FF community knows me.
I tried to sign up here as jerryskids some time ago and Joe banned me. I then signed up with JerryG with the above disclaimer, banned again. I fully expect to be banned a third time.

Love Charlie Steiner. The old ESPN commercials were so great.
Between the Subway perv and that awful jewelry store, I think you made the right choice.Real name Jared. I've been called J-rod by a number of people throughout my life. It has nothing to do with my last name...just some popular variation of my first name. So I spelled it phonetically, and wa-la.
I know. I don't think there will be a whole lot more kids named Jared in the near future. We are a dying breed.Between the Subway perv and that awful jewelry store, I think you made the right choice.
Yes, much like Adolf was once an honorable name.I know. I don't think there will be a whole lot more kids named Jared in the near future. We are a dying breed.
I have said here before, I loved my grandfather and would have loved to name one of my sons after him, but he was a WWI era German immigrant. His first name was Rudolf (a kid would get abused with that name!) and his middle name was Adolf. His parents weren't that clever in the naming dept, his brother was Adolf Rudolf.Leroy Hoard said:Yes, much like Adolf was once an honorable name.Jayrod said:I know.

I like them both.Best part was that he stole all the goaline carries from Robert Smith. Former Ohio State back, not the singer from The Cure.
Good thing for me the mods dont know (or dont care) who Ronnie Mund is I guess.My original username was Michael J Fox, but the mods were concerned about the use of a real name. As if someone might think that the actual MJF was on this board.
Good times.

Are you doing okay, boss? I've been a little concerned for your well being, as I've seen several posts in the PF over the last few weeks telling people to go pound Sand.When I signed up I thought that the whole online moniker thing was pretty stupid. Still do, though to a lesser extent. So after 2 seconds of thinking I chose the most bland, ubiquitous thing possible.
I’m not sure I do.Birdie is actually short for Bird $h1t (guano, droppings, excrement - you get the meaning)
Nice. I got Scurvy's backstory with that too.It's 2002. The game "SOCOM U.S. Navy Seals" is released on the OG PlayStation . Me and my buddy were in grad school and played...a lot.
It was the first online multiplayer game I played. We started an in-game clan with some friends called "Diseased" or something, and picked our user names based on that. But we weren't real scary diseases, but dumb ones. He was Scurvy and I was Ringworm.
Eventually shortened to Worm and the rest is history.
