    Wow, I didn't know. I remember him from the bash as a big loveable guy that seemed to commandeer a room when he was in it. A poster that was as large in life as he was online. A rarity not to be overlooked nor dismissed. The guy is a true legend at SBR.

    gl and all the best to WB

    never had any personal chats with him which must mean i'm doing something right around here.

    don't be a stranger with the baseball write-ups on the boards, always enjoyed those pieces.

SBRforum would not be what it is today without Willie. For all we saw him do on the forum, there was 10x more going into the board behind the scenes.

    Thanks for everything Willie!

    Willie isn't going far. Right now you can still read Mr. Bee at DonBest. Colorado Rockies Preview and we're hoping for our column at SBRforum as well. We can let Willie know how the Astros are doing in the article comments.

    So unless you stumbled on to a post of his nobody knew?

    Would have expected an announcement "before" he left but thats his style as the poster mentioned about him not seeking attention

    Anyone who slowed down enough to read into his post would have known he is a great man and we were fortunate to have him here.

    WTF tongue in cheek thats a good one with the wicked witch video. Course in reality SBR lost alot today

    The suggestion that with his 16,000th post he says a few words is a good one

    GodSpeed bro! Thks for keeping this place sane !

    A company is only as good as their employees, and Sam, Willie, and Lou have made SBR what it is today. It will be hard for anyone to fill Willie's job. Keep up the great work guys.
