Default 5000 net54 Post Club Thread

Just like 500 homers and 3000 hits and 300 wins...there is the 5000 post net54 club...

Some day when i get there, I will get to rub elbows with the bnorths of the world and ulmandds, republicaninmass, peter S., clydepepper and the like...

i know its rare air to be in this company.

i hope i am worthy.....from this point on in the thread, the hope is only people with 5000 or more posts (or someone closing in on the record) on net54 to post their wise opinions on this thread and grab a drink ,

as with ichiro his march to 3000 was different than other 3000 hit players...many of his hits were singles aka 'nice card' and not doubles or homers (analysis of blank back/error cards)


welcome all (worthy members ) to the 5000 post club!

I would grab a drink with anyone on here.

I don't think I got many singles associated with my posts.

Like me or hate me I can guarantee I have never lied on this forum or screwed over a single member in what has to be close to 1000 transactions by now.

Have a great day everyone!

I'm not sure if the 5,000+ posts I have made are as 'noteworthy' as the others...just retired with too much time on my hands...and my rate has decreased since I lost the fire of collecting. (once you sell a Babe the writing's on the wall)

I do try to contribute from time to time but I usually bow to those higher up the hobby food chain than I - and there are lots of those.

I have enjoyed this forum...most fun since I quit playing.

Like Mr Culpepper I am also retired and have been for some time. That accounts for many of my posts, I just have a ton of free time. I have averaged 2.39 posts a day.

Thankfully since the original post almost two years ago, I was able to lay the 5k golden egg, which of course has secured my lofty position within this community, and therefore so shall this be my last post in this thread.

Brian (unless I just can't resist posting something again)
