Milestone Watch

Yes he has. He's written some of the best articles I've ever known. Here are some of his feats:

3rd all time in points

2,500+ edits

14,544 comments (over 5,000 comments more than second place)

229 published opinions (with at LEAST 220 being excellent articles, I bet); good for 2nd place as well

1st in thumbs up...

Just to name a FEW of his attributes.

Raised more moeny for charity in 2007 than any other contributor...

Interviewed more REAL athletes than any other contributor in 2007...

Shamelessly promoted AGM in a variety of mediums - without being compensated - than any other contributor in 2007...

All that other numbers stuff is just accumulation without substance - mostly things I'm not proud of... I am proud of having players tell me in person or having their relatives e-mail me saying "Thanks, that was a great article you wrote" and having other writers send me their books because I touched on a similar subject... 2007 was a hell of a year!

Dude- you're not going to win over Jenn or Allison- yes I m sure 2007 was a hell of a year for you but they won fair and square-- man why so jealous?

Oh, Jamel... maybe one day wisdom can inflict some it's glory on you.

I am entirely thrilled with the woman that was gracious enough to love me and marry me and subsequently we have two incredible children together. Every day our lives are better and more satisfying. I can't for tomorrow!!! I can't wait for the day after that!!! 2008 will be even better than 2007!!!

NO little barely 18 year old girl or 24 year old brainless skank that couldn't even keep a job as a writer at SI is ever going to compare... their best days are passing/have already passed them by... live in fantasyland all you want - my reality is better than my fantasies could have dared to be!!!

Ooooo so you're pissed she got to write for SI and you haven't- that makes sense--

Ya sure? It took me forever to redshirt

Telegram for Jamel:

I don't care about points (stop)

Minus me all you want, please do (stop)

How about I give you all my points and we see if it matters (stop)

you sound pissy today

Once upon a time it did. Then a user by the name of Xinoph fell from top 10 to 90th (ish) in about three hours. After pleas from the Founders to stop, it didn't stop, so soon they changed the algorithm, so that only thumbs up counted towards the score.

thanks- i just figured that's why I only have the points I do- maybe because Manny always thumbs down me- damn Manny!

Don't confuse "pissy" with almost entirely apathetic.

Maybe I give you thumbs up and more people find it enjoyable to minus you. Ever consider that, genius? Again... *yawn*

*yawn*-- that's classic-- how do you come up with this stuff?

• shaking head in laughter*
• lights cigarette*

classic!

FYI Alex, Xinoph is currently 41st. ;)

FYI, Xinoph is a 15 year old whiny little kid from New England...

And that differs him from other New England 15 year olds.... ????

15 16... I think.

man at least i am not like that

Niteowl, you need precisely 836,560 points to reach 1,000,000. ;)

Except that Sanders didn't retire for the second time, just before passing a historical mark...

Manny- you're more of a Bonds kind of guy over Barry Sanders

Naw, My head is bigger than Bonds' (my testicles are too)

Manny, did you really need a second gimmick? What were all those things you told me about? You know, saying that you should just be yourself, no regrets, etc.

OH! You mean, you still want me to make those?

You were getting like 30 votes a pop on them, I would think the response would be evidence enough.

I'll do one for the end of the year. How's that? (Remind me on the 31st) Then, I'll continue to make one every month. I've been extremely busy with school and all these projects everyone's throwing at me. <- (Both school and AGM) ;)

Ouch :)- Kelsdad- can you change your avator to allison?

Patron anejo, not Schmidt's... excuse me while I vurp at the idea. I actually accomplished MORE on the 'chair when I was "employed" because I didn't have to share my computer with two noggin.com junkies

Geez Kels that was harsh.

Oh yeah, sure, blame it on the kids.

What's that, Kels, you want to play Noggin.com now? OK, give me a minute, let me say goodbye to my friends.

Daddy duty calls.

Manny should join my Amway business. More details on that little topic whenever MLN spams the 'Chair.

I know Manny Stiles and he easily grows *yawn* with you...

Since you write *yawn* in your comments do you want me to write *whack whack whack* in mine?

I would prefer if you wrote nothing at all...

Nah, just keep posting pics. Deductive logic utilized by informed minds already led to that conclusion long ago.

Tyrone use big words

Manny use big fanbox

I dunno about the pic. It looks more like the potty trainer for my kid.

So it's twice as useful and half as stinky as a Jamel post! Perfect!

Manny when you get like this you remind me of my brother's 22 month old daughter having a temper tantrum-

and lastly

• whack whack whack*
