Pasta Little Brioni 03:00 PM 05-20-2013
As a spinoff to the successful NFL Network's version of this and from the drama thread, it has come to fruition that this thread must be created.

Each day Hootie will reveal a member starting with 101 and working his way in order to number 1. I will update the OP as I see the names revealed.

*Warning this thread may cause a severe case of butthurt*

Let it begin!!

I admire anyone who has taken the time out to attain their college degree, no matter in what discipline.

What I do find appalling is the following:

1) The belief that you must have a degree or your earning potential is limited. I may not be able to pull down Dr, Lawyer, Dentist or CEO money but I know many non-degreed people who pull down more money than CPA's, Accountants, and other degreed vocations.

2) The belief that having a degree makes you more capable of performing a function than a person with experience.

3) On the flip side, a person who doesn't have their degree bitching and moaning about having to work harder to prove themselves. It's the road we've taken....accept it, work harder to prove you are just as capable and overcome everyone's misconceptions.

Buoyed by their legion of supporters (or handful, when you really come right down to it, but let's not inject too much reality into this high art ****ing masterpiece we've all had a hand in creating). All in the grand tradition of Skip Towne, and everybody knows how much value I assign to his great legacy.

I've battled, I've bickered, I've laughed, I've trolled, I've made Pootie throw a tantrum and threaten to hold his breathe and turn blue. This thread has delivered, to be sure.

But there was never a minute when I wouldn't have rather been talking about the old days with Russ, Jamie, Brad, Brian, Brandon and Tammy. And if you don't know who those people are, then chances are I really don't give a crap about your opinion of me, this board, or my posts.
Hawaiian Boy was pretty good too.

Holy crap, that is a fantastic post. I wish I would have read something like this when I was 18. No joke.

Well, kind of. Kyle tends to show up from time to time and say his piece, but he's not really involved in the everyday mod discussions.

Speaking old school: who was it that was Enddelt's roommate or friend that lived in the same town?

Thanks....but I will admit it took a while in my life to come to this realization. I was #3 for a while there...bitching and moaning. One day a great mentor took me to lunch told me I had great potential but the only thing stopping me was myself and my complaining. He told me that if I spent as much time/energy proving I was capable as I did moaning about not having the opportunity, I would probably push him into an early retirement.

I took his advice to heart....

Boozer. Don't remember his real name. Only met him once, IIRC.

Thanks for the clarification. You guys do a good job of even handed modding.

I do wish posters like Mecca, Banyon, and even orange would post, though.
This site needs more Bob Dole, IMO.

....okay, mine was kinda easy. But I did have to write a lot. I have several hundred pages worth of completely useless position papers, capstone pieces and other such shenanigans.

And to be honest, having seen how many people now use the written/spoken word, I'm pretty glad to have spent so much time writing as that's a legitimate skill that I'll get to use against the hordes of miscreant 20-somethings that can't communicate in complete sentences.
