There is no other Cardinals' fan board like ASFN. Not even close. I imagine that Skkorp is very proud that all of us have carried the torch. It's to the point where if a Cardinals' fan ever wanted to know up to the minute news or well-informed opinions and scouting reports...it's all right here. We are all in this together and we are a brother and sisterhood, whether we realize it or not. Yes, we get after each other from time to time, but we are getting better at generating respectful give and takes.
While I never met any of you in person, just as I never met Skkorp, I have talked with some of you over the phone and to me so many of you feel like friends. For example, every year when I go to New Jersey, I think of Jeff. When I go through Scarsdale, NY to NYC, I think of Garth. Whenever I think of Pat Tillman, I think of Dems and how much he and his legacy mean to her. Whenever I dream of finally getting rid of Directv, I think of MD and TCF. Whenever I see a tweet that is Cardinals' related, I wonder if Ronin has posted it yet. Whenever, I think of Roy Green, I think of Jetstream. Whenever I think of Joel Blaudstein and some of the all-time great evaluators, I think of Harry. Whenever I think of South Carolina, I think of Mark. Whenever I think of Pennsylvania, I think of PA. Whenever I think of the Buckeyes and a scout from JAX, I think of Cbus. Whenever I think of Stanford, UCLA and Cal, I think of Russ. Whenever I think of Nashville, I think of TJ. Whenever I find myself standing on the corner of Bullhead City, AZ, I think of BCF. Whenever I think of O.J. Howard, I think of Chopper. Whenever I think of Preston Parsons, I think of K9. Whenever I think of winning the NFC Championship, I think of Catfish and the joy we shared over the phone. Whenever I evaluate an o-lineman, I think of Gary (Snakester). Whenever I think of the recent bet I have on Andre Ellington, I think of cardncubfan. Whenever I think of Beanie Wells, I think of THESMEL. Whenever I think of making a poll, I think of SissyBoyFloiyd. Whenever I think of the coolest ASFN couple, I think of Chris and Jersey. Whenever I think of lol, I think of Jeff the Shark. Whenever I think of Mississippi, I think of oaken. Whenever I think of Carson Palmer I think of OhCrap (in a good way). Whenever I think of Branch, I think of DVontel. Whenever I think of the UK, I think of Geurnsey. TJ in Rolling Hills. Jay Cardinal in AZ. Whenever I think of Niklas, I think MrYeahBut. My pals Solar, BigRedRage, juza, LIAC, Bodha, Mainstreet, BillsCarnage, Southpaw, AZNative, daves, Vermont Maverick, Gandhi, seesred, Reign Blood and Lagerfilled. Whenever I think of mispelling a word, I think of BIM. Whenever I think of anything with two 8s in it, I think of b8rtm8n.
