The Dat2U Appreciation Thread 

Post#1 » by Chocolate City Jordanaire » Mon Dec 21, 2009 7:40 am

yungal, to my shock nominated me. I say tag, Dat, you're it.

I trust your draft reports (what'd you have, 6 tiers of players?). I implicitly trust your judgement as a talent evaluator. I trust what you see and report from Vegas, and you've been right about a lot more than just DeSuck.

As far DeShawn goes. I take credit for starting the DeSuck nickname years back. I was completely right on every single thing I've said about him and I expect someone to create a thread honoring my contribution to the board. :D


I know some feel these kinds of posts are "superfluous", that most make strong contributions here, or that good posts belong in the HOF thread; but to them I say soon it'll be your turn to have an appreciation thread. :)

The Wizards are often hard to appreciate, but so many of you are consistently insightful and fun to be associated with. I hope others can share with Dat until he nominates the next person.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

CCJ, you sir are a scholar and a gentleman. :D

To begin, I'd like to thank God. For without him, I'd be nothing. I'd also like to thank my momma, who decided not to abort me all those years ago. I'd also like to thank DeSuck for being such an easy target... :lol:

Seriously though, I believe we should have a Wizboard appreciation thread. So many great posters bring so much to the table. As much as we snipe at each other, were still like an online family, some I know better than my own family. So we should have one place where we can have one big circle jerk and celebrate our brillance.

^^^^
I know that some disagree with these thread, well too-bad :) Dat was also part of the original Wiz-board 5, the revolutionary group the planted the seeds for EFJ's eventual demise :) Dat is a great poster who submits "quality posts" filled with useful info (as do others).

I nominate Nate for the next tag.

The "To Do" list in Dat2u's signature is epic. Someone should forward it to EG.

lots of excellent board members, hard to single one out

there's at least 5-10 that make the board worth reading, most of
the time anyway. Times like these make it difficult to be passionate
about our team and therefore also about BB about our team.
I try to be optimistic.
A lot of what we call 'thought' is just mental activity

When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression

Those who are convinced of absurdities, can be convinced to commit atrocities

True, and in a way #1 has been undone with "white" EJ as some call Flip.
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

Return to Washington Wizards
