Props to the .NET veterans!

As we continue to get a TON of new 12's joining us here at .NET, I wanted to take the opportunity to give props to the long-time veteran members that have been with us through thick and thin. You're the folks that were posting here before the 2006 SuperBowl team, and the folks that were here during the very lean Jim Mora years.

Let's make it a roll call of long time .NET'ers, sound off here, of course starting with the one and only Aros! I salute each of you and sincerely hope that your passion gets rewarded next week.

My ability to truly take a blissful eternal dirt nap will be realized in 8 days.

Present since '00. Lots of training camps, .NET events and pre-funks at Temple.

This place is thrives because we see each other as people, not just screen names.

Go Hawks!

Was gonna go with this :13: but now I'd like to stick around and see if we can do it again and again

I guess this is as good a thread as any to announce that, on behalf of all .NET Veterans, I am filing a class action suit
to try and regain the thousands of hours each of us has spent hanging around here and also to get some relief for our
carpal tunnel syndrome, due to the massive amount of clicking we have endured over the years.

Thanks to (off the top of my head): Brian, Todd, Mark, Ryan, James, John, Leif, Dom, Rob, Matt, Les, Jordan, Steve and, and , and

Darn it! I know there are a bunch of names I am forgetting.

Anyway - Thanks to you all for being a part of my fake internet life and my real one.

Been here for a long time.. back in the old school .NET days. I was AlexanderFan37 for awhile then transitioned over to this moniker.

Happy for everybody, new and old.

Been here since 2000 was HawkDawg then changed to Wenhawk at some point because i forgot my password but I've been out of Wenatchee since 2002. And posted from all over the world after I joined the Air Force.

Thanks to Aros, RockHawk, and all the others for making this such an amazing place.

I am a from-day-one Seahawks fan who didn't know this place existed until I accidentally stumbled upon it last March. I appreciate all the .NET vets (and all the other posters) who take the time to share their vast knowledge of all things football. It is truly an amazing place.

Been here since I was a kid... Wait a moment that's not possible, the Seahawks didn't exist... Oh well I feel like I was a kid when we first came onboard .NET... Mizhawk (Trish) and I've been here for a long time, and love .NET... Great memories from Training Camp in Cheney, and Temples... We've made lifelong wonderful friends, so here's to .NET and to all the .NETTER's... :thirishdrinkers: GO HAWKS!!! :th2thumbs:

Ever since they passed that law, I don't remember much...but I think I actually joined the second week of '05, the Arizona game.

It's been great fun hanging here making new friends and such.

And thanks to the mods for not banning me during my 'flaming' years. :mrgreen:

My home since the old site days.
It would be interesting to find out how the numbers have changed since 2005?

I was around the same time too at the old Scout site IIRC. Don't remember how I found it but really liked it as soon as I got here and have been here ever since.

Long time lurker and occasional poster, I was BeavHawkFan in a past iteration. I met a number here back at the last Cheney Training camp at I believe was Radishes homestead. Go hawks! Hardcore since '99! :th2thumbs:

I joined in 2007, I feel left out =(

Btw, why the heck does it say I joined in 2009????? Is that from the whole scout.com debacle and subsequent switch back to independence? Can that be fixed like the old post count was?

Anyway, Hooray for the veterans!

Been here since Seahawks98.com... I was originally PatS, but couldn't re-sign up on one of the transitions with that short of a username. I also had season tickets from when I could first afford them in the mid-90s until I bought a house in 2000 and couldn't afford them any longer. Dang it!

I love you all.

Old posters are great. New posters suck! Real fans!


Seriously guys. It's been one crazy journey. If we win this whole thing, I will have one of the most mushy, sappy long0winded posts of all time. Can't wait.

Go Hawks!!!

I've been here since pre-2005 on the old scout site. It's been a hell of a ride since then!

Me too, under a different screen name.
Go Hawks! :th2thumbs:

I have moved 2 times since first coming to .NET in '98'.
Not being to adept with the internet I have gone through a couple of other computers, and handles since.
Hats off, and huge kudos to the Godfather Todd -AROS- Breda.

This board got me through my years in the Midwest, though I used it mainly as a news site as I was never big on social media/forums in High School. I don't know what I would have done if all I had to watch was the Vikings and the Packers/Broncos (bullshit) that they have out there.

Thanks .Net.
