Sound Off !!! - Introduce Yourself

This might be the wrong place to introduce myself and, if so, please accept my apologies.

Welcome USCemper. If you are so inclined, we have a thread called "Sound Off" where folks can post some information about themselves. A historical archive of sorts. There is a very similar thread on Bucknuts. Originally it was started to track were Buckeye fans were from, but it has evolved into a more "general information" about each poster.

I too would say that USCemper has been a very good "rival" poster on Bucknuts. If you know of other "rival" (USC?) posters that should stop by, by all means invite them. One note: this site isn't like Bucknuts, flamming & trolling rival posters will be eaten alive. :biggrin: That isn't meant to threaten or intimidate you, only to say that there are no "Paid Members" who must be catered to or given special treatment.

USC,

Welcome to the board... after reading your posts on this thread, I think you make a good addition to this community... we need more "outsiders" like yourself here... it's fun talking 'ball to fans of other programs...

Welcome, USCemper...

I enjoyed reading your point of view. I am sure there is a tremendous amount of jealousy from the other schools regarding good old PC...including many of us Buckeye fans. I am sure many fans from other schools are jealous of what we have here in OSU as well. Unfortunately, this is a bad trait that's part of us "human beings" as we try to validate ourselves by reducing others.

May be you need to get a new motor for your water bed.

Born in Florence, Italy but lived in Philly until I went to school at USC in L.A. Also attended UVA. I am divorced/single and I have three boys. I am an apparel broker working out of my house in Winston-Salem, NC. I have a place in Santa Monica where my oldest son lives with his girlfriend and doesn't pay any rent, by the way. This serves me well because I go to LA often for business as most of the products I sell come from China, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, the former Soviet Republics, etc. and are delivered to the San Pedro harbor and eventually are stored in a warehouse in nearby City of Industry. I use the place to go see the games when the Trojans play at home. I also travel to Charlottesville or to nearby ACC cities to see the UVA Cavaliers whenever possible. I am an avid CF fan but I wouldn't consider myself a "homer" for USC or UVA. Naturally USC is my first love but I follow the fortunes of the Cavaliers as well. I don't follow the NFL or the NBA. I have enjoyed most of the insiders boards, but bucknuts in particulas where I have had the privilege to meet great guys like OSUgrad21, Buckyprof, Bucktatoo and many others. I am a crazy type A Italian but I am not a troll or a flamer and I don't use profanity or vulgarity when dealing with other football factions or "rival" fans. I don't hate other schools, with the exception of a mild dilslike for UCLA, Miami and Notre Dame. I have a great deal of respect for your school and its football program and a little less for your hated enemies in Ann Arbor for past recruiting wars, when they used to steal all the better "skill" people from California. Although I am not a flamer, OSUgrad21 has warned me that this is a "hot" buckeye site with fervent and die-hard buckeye fans who may not totally appreciate my school of origin. Please feel free to call me a moron or an idiot any time you think such appellatives are warranted. Besides, this is your club and I am a guest here.

Again, thank you for having me here.

Welcome. I think you'll find this board is (in my very humble opinion) a step up from BN. Not that there is anything terribly wrong with BN but I just enjoy the atmosphere here better. I'm sure you're opinions will be welcomed and accepted as long as nothing turns into a flame war as you mentioned from some of the younger posters. Again welcome.

It's all about the girth
Is that the same as quality over quantity?
