Holy crap. We talk a lot around here

Reddy and Milkman hitting milestones of post counts caused me to look at the top post counts (when the hell did SS2k5 pass 100,000?). Just a really quick calculation, to make 25,000 posts, at just 60 seconds per post, would require over 400 hours. That's not counting any time to read other people's posts.

 

:drink :cheers

60 seconds a post? That is about 59.5 seconds too long.

I honestly don't know how some of you guys keep up the pace. I started out strong, but then faded huge in the stretch. Probably took me 5 years to get those last few thousand posts, I just hung around long enough to piece it together slowly. I'm like the Fred McGriff or Craig Biggio of posting. Balta and SS2K5 are like Rose and Ripken.

I've slowed in recent years as well. There were times when my work situations allowed me to post while working. That changed, plus now I rarely have full access in the summer. And I realized I had become a huge ass and really wanted to change that. The only way was to post less.

At my current rate, I'll reach 25,000 posts by the time I'm 60 years old. I'm 25 right now... :mellow:

I swear you post more than your count says.

 

I got a ton of posts but I go on my spurts of posting a lot and rarely posting. I think post the least amount during baseball season, oddly enough.

Well, that and the fact that you suck

I dont think I ever actually watched the video in your signature.

 

 

And now I just watched it like 8 times in a row. Still blows my mind. So awesome. What game was that?

I still remember some of the old posters (who don't post much/are banned/choose not to post anymore) who were suppose to catch Jason (at the time) and Mike for the top spot(s).

 

I also remember when I was in the top 10 for posts. :lol: I see me and Greasy are the two on the borderline of 20K next.

You and me both. As much as I read the board, I guess I just don't post much. I used to be really active back in the day, so I expected my count to be higher. Now I'm looking at the post counts of you and others who all joined around the same time, and I'm realizing that I'm way behind.

Tennessee-Georgia from 2012. That's Cordarrelle Patterson. I hate that he plays for the Vikings because I loved him so much in college. But a part of me still roots for him as long as the Vikings lose.

I was better then Balta and Mike. I had years of peak performance but then tailed off as expected. Balta and Mike were clearly roiding as they haven't seen a normal decline in performance. I need a programmer who can put an asterisk next to their post counts.

Haha, solid post. Looks like the old man's still got it.
