He use to love the Knicks then his favorite player Gallo was traded and he just became a glorified troll. He was biased and started baiting with his posts. The board became unreadable for a long time there and he was a key player in that.

It was always fun, and I need to find that joy posting again... taking time off has helped a lot and I plan to take a lot more off..

the forum deserves someone more constructive at this point.... and my family deserves more of my time.....

I will be around, I am pulling for the knicks to kick arse and do well....

again, thanks fellas...

Always enjoyed reading your posts whether I agreed or disagreed. Much respect. You will def be missed as a mod. But sounds like you made the right choice. Take care with everything else.

Like others have said, his post game recaps played a HUGE role in me deciding to make an account. Also, like others have said, we've had our disagreements, but I've always respected you as a poster and as someone with a lot of basketball knowledge. Hope all is well with you, man.

There really is something to taking a step back from this place every once in a while.

TKF you're the man.

TKF, you're one of the reasons why i joined RealGM. Love your love for the knicks. those keys...though imitated, but can never be replicated. For years I never got to watch the knicks (living out of state and crunched for time) but i would always come to the forum to see your keys. Good luck with everything bro and thank you for all the memories related to realgm. Safe to say this board would never be the same without you!

Yeah, mad respect, TKF. When it comes down to it, taking a step back really helps put things in perspective. You'll be missed, but I'm sure you'll be back at some point too. ;)

As one of the posters who have debated & disagreed with many of your views on the Knicks in recent memory, I very much respect you as a poster on here. It hasn't been easy watching this team but your post-game analysis was superb & I hope we win a title in memory of Tommy 6 passing and you stepping down as a mod.

Enjoy your retirement TKF.

I always enjoyed your posts. I hope you find the time to do a few keys to the game posts.

Sorry to hear man... but I guess you're right, Gallo does need his father to be there for him. :wink:

i'm sure when you were first given the title, you didn't expect realgm to still be kicking for 10 years(and in this day, the internet is dominated by everything).

have fun with your free time, not having the burden to be the mediator ... i don't care how some think you turned your back, you just viewed the knicks for the longterm instead of the short term, and i respect that.

I share this sentiment. At least we still have knicks742 and nyknicks2k2.

again, thanks for all the kind words, and for those who I didn't directly respond to, I thank you as well, all of you.. even those formerly banned posters who say, good riddance... hey, that is cool.... like me or hate me, I did enough to evoke some kind of emotion.. and with that I guess I can say.. Job well done...

this is fun and I never take it personal unless someone attacks me.. attacking my views are ok, this is what makes for healthy and lively debates... Again, i will be around, I mean someone has to keep you knuckleheads on your toes... right?...... :wink:

Best of luck with everything, TKF. You were always one of my favorite posters and I always looked forward to the keys, win or lose. Enjoy the time with you kids and don't be a stranger.
