Phenomenal Swamper Thread
So just finished having beers with BSF. Great time and solid person. It was strange to try and explain that I was going to meet a friend I have never met before to some of my coworkers when I ditched them tonight, but really glad I did and worth it. If you ever get the chance to catch up with BSF.....highly recommended (Especially on his home turf).
This is a strange community we have created, but it is pretty amazing that you can show up in a city, send out a message and know that you will have interesting conversation, a good time, and be glad you have built this relationship with folks you know through a place that has no scores on the main page.
p.s. despite my appreciation for BSF....fuck the Irsays

I'm gonna try to meet him next year at GenCon, for sure.
I've been blessed to have met like 20 people from here and at one point I swear I'll meet you all.

This. Completely. Between my military "family" and Swamp "family," I can go nearly anywhere and know someone. It's pretty awesome.

You're too kind pal.
My depth of sports knowledge, especially in the NCAA realm, is not enough to adequately share bar space with many of you, and wlu is definitely on that list.

Re: Phenomenal Swamper Thread
Does remind me I need to visit Baltimore one day very soon hopefully. I think Baltimore and Seattle are the only two American cities among the top 40 or so in population that I've never been to. I have a buddy who lives in the distant DC suburbs out towards Baltimore/Annapolis and I've been promising a visit since forever.

Re: Phenomenal Swamper Thread
We really enjoyed Baltimore as well as meeting bfj.
I've had some great times with Swampers. Luckily, I met my wife on MySpace, so this is never weird to her.

Don't feel bad, he moved to my small town and didn't want to meet me, either.

Romero has been around a bit.
I've met a few, including a couple more than once and one even came to my wedding. Boston and Denver seemed to have been hotbeds of Swampers. Sadly haven't been back to NYC/NJ where the big nest of you reside.
Sadly haven't met BSF, BFJ, or Pruitt the ones I've spoken to the most offswamp.

Swampers are great! Howard and bengal welcomed me on my Eastern US trip (wow, that was 6 years ago).
DiS and I missed each other recently, hope to make up for that.
Everyone come up to Calgary and join me in this snowstorm! I'll take you to a Flames game if they're in town.

I will always treasure the glass frog that BSF sent me before my trip to "Jeopardy!"
It sits on my desk along with a few other souvenirs and keepsakes - a lucky frog that I will keep with me forever.

Re: Phenomenal Swamper Thread
We should meet in Columbia!
(I work in Laurel, but it's butt .)
This is going to sound terrible, but I'm having trouble remembering who I met back in the day. I know it was wlu and tb... wasn't keg in from out of town?
Part of the issue on that is that when we met, we weren't also set up as a group on Fb (or I hadn't joined that group.) Had trouble putting handles to real people in the aftermath.

Re: Phenomenal Swamper Thread
just as a genral...i said this to brian the other day and i mean it. i truly do not know if I would be alive today without you guys. not hyperbole', but you guys came together after Ike and helped me rebuild my life....most of you ive never met or heard your voice...just stepped up. I feel like I owe every single one of you a deep debt that I can never repay...so anytime yall are behind a cause like BFJ and pathfinders or anything else where I can help a bit, if I can send literally anything you guys got it. just reach out to me personally. i happened to catch bfjs fb post but i easily could have missed it, and I would have hated that. You guys are in an odd way like another family to me. Yall were here when i proposed nine years ago, were here when she broke my heart, were here through hurricanes, rebeccas extra brand of being a ho, the lawsuit with my sister, the Donaghy book, yall will be here when i propose to ashley in a couple weeks and hopefully some of yall will be here in person when I marry that woman. Point is....well shit I lost my point.

I love the way we united to attack one who attacks our own. I’m talking about HDO’s FB post yesterday about Trump if you didn’t see it. Some asshole made it personal with him and 4 or 5 of us on there let the guy know he was a huge gaping asshole.

Re: Phenomenal Swamper Thread
If I still posted on Facebook I'd be all over those types of losers. It doesn't amount to much, but calling random white people on Facebook racist asshole sympathizers seems like fun.
I won't be posting until I'm done with the military because I can't guarantee I wouldn't have some person rat me out to my chain of command and jeopardizing my retirement check. And you know it would be the dude who called for Obama's birth certificate and said gross things about his wife while acting like that's a civil way to discuss politics and labeling the left 'hateful.'
