    WillieBee has 11,000 posts wtf?! My mini tribute
    .... or roast.

    That has to be the quietest 10,000+ posting performance in the history of Forumville.

    My take on Willie is that he strated off slowly and then tapered off from there. Not good.

    But in the last year or so I aquired the aquired taste for his unique humor. I know he is a part time ump and for sure he loves punching guys out that are just watching that 3rd strike wiz by. I think he's the ump type who turns to the side and does the left uppercut and over hand right combo while he's screaming or grunting that 3 rd strike. I'd bet that i'm right.

    Anyway. we should have an SBR Hall of Fame, min 10,000 posts.(lou, dave, anyone?) There are some first round ballot guys like JJ Gold and probably a dozen others. WillieBee is not an automatic 1 rounder guy imo. But he's the kind of guy who hangs in there and finally makes it because he is Hall material imo. A Dwight Stevens type.

    Congrats, sometimes the job gets to his head but we keep him in line.

    Good mix of moderating and gambling

      Hall of Fame sounds fine. I was not given any recognition for my eclipsing 25,000 posts recently but I do not look for it. I was expecting to arrive at SBR to a hail of confetti but was greeted only by an increasing workload.

        Hall of Fame should be reserved for 25,000 posts...

          johnny boy, i find it's the opposite. he's a mod here who's been here for a long time.. and only 10k posts is a shock.. guys that are mods usually have like 90,000 posts.. he only has 10k.. i really thought he had like 48,000 posts by now.

          johnny, i am approaching 10k posts very soon, and i've only been here 1 yr.. and since i now feel like a real loser for having 10k posts in 1 yr, i would like sbr to give me a roast to make the pain easier for me...
          It's bad enough waking up everyday knowing you're a loser, so i want to be at least honored.. thanks..

          congrats, wilbert..

            Nicky, most of my posts get moved to the Private Zone or I'd have 90K by now. Plus there are all the posts I make as The Prick, writing Chance Harper's articles, standing in line for hours and hours at the Post Office to mail someone a $10 t-shirt and, of course, making sure all the guys in the 'Smart Guy Room' are up on the latest programming and technological advances.

            Thanks John, uh, I think

            Should be different wings for the Hall of Fame maybe, posters/mods/chucked. Either that or it should be an honor reserved strictly for posters. I could be wrong.

              I think Willie Bee is substance over bullshit, plus I think he realises he'll be fired if he takes the BBD route and starts threads entitled: 'Mr Nicky Why Are You Talking Behind Pattys Back.'

                  If they go with the Buffalo wings with blue cheese, I might post more.

                        Outstanding achievement by Willie Bee. I hate to say it but he is the only employee at SBR with common sense. I also know more about his life than any other employee because he is very open about enjoying the things in life he loves.

                        Congrats!

                        PS. Now open your checkbook SBR John and buy him a nice Rolex.

                            That's 11,000 quality posts as well, which is rarer still. Some guys around here have that many by lunchtime, but just be prepared to cut your IQ in half if you want to read through them.....

                            Congrats Bee.

                              I'm seriously beginning to wonder if SBRJohn goes on coke benders or something. What motivates him to write the most ridiculous things every couple months or so???

                                Give me 2 or 3 months, I'll be at 11k. Not sure about the quality of them. But 99.9 percent of them will have me rambling a bit lol

                                  I think Bigboydan should not be left out! I know he doesn't post anymore but he has the highest post total of anyone on here!
                                  If it seems to good to be true it usually is!!

                                  I have a natural instinct to exploit market ineffieciencies!!

                                    This thread is about paying homage to Willie Bee. Wait, you're right, it isn't. Carry on.

                                    I still can't believe this mean-spirited post disguised as a "roast". From our Founding Father no less.

                                      I beg your pardon but I never promised you a rose garden.

                                      Dude I got my SBR consulting gig to renew at the all star break. Give me a break already. I'm trying to throw a few post in to show the suits I still got a little game. Your comment just doesnt help!
