Retirement Announcement

[The Indomitable DrugS]

I've thought about this for several days now and, after careful soul searching, I have decided that I will not be retiring just yet.

There was a couple weeks there were the board was really sucking camel cock - but some old stalwarts such as Indian Charlie, Coach Pants, Freddymo, and Dahoss have rededicated themselves enough to have me fired the fucl< up to lay down some quality takes and blistering putdowns.

It's winter - and there just isn't too much going on right now. There has been a lot of rumor and whispers about my "declining posting skills" - I've heard that some think that I'm a washed up has-been like my idol Moss. That I've lost my touch and I'm no longer effective when I click the 'submit' button. I've even been called out by a Mod in the Sports forum recently. Despite all of this - I still feel good about my ability to move in the pocket and stomp tards at will.

Very few of you truly know what it's like being a successful internet poster. Sure, I remember what it was like when it all started. To crush tards with irrefutable logic, to goad them into meltdowns with hideously offensive vitriol, to see the PMs from the crowd showering me with praise, the adulation of fans, the back to back Poster of the Year honors in '02 and '03 and even the otherwise sh!t threads that were saved from the sewer merely by my presence on the field. That's why I played the game.

I have no complaints. I've been blessed with a great career, but there is a darker side to it that the fans don't see. They don't see the gimps, lamers, stalkers, fucl<tards and mongoloids that come crawling out of the wood work. They don't see the toll it takes on your gambling and your sex life as you sit hunched over the keyboard delivering solid takes day after day and night after night. They just can't understand that kind of pressure.

I've decided today that I will be leaving PA for Florida right after Christmas. 'Sup Tampa area! 'Sup Gulfstream Park? However, though I may not be as prolific as I have been, I'm not yet ready to hang em up for good.
