Default You know, I've had a great posting career...

But it's time for me to call it quits and retire.

I was going to bow out quietly again, sneak back in and see if people are wondering about me, or I thought about just ripping everyone a new assh@le and go out and burn all my bridges...

But nah, sometime tomorrow I'll stop by this thread to view over all the well wishes, then never log back in here again. Thats right, I'm going out in style. First class this time

Look, we all know my contract here eats up a lot of cap space - my retirement should be able to help Kasept bring in some quality free agents from outside boards.

I realize there is no way those new up and comers will be able to replace my veteran leadership.

I know some of you are thinking ... "yeah, see you next month DrugS - this place has you by the balls" or "somewhere along the line you stopped loving being a bettor and started to love attention whoring"

Nonsense - it truly is time to pass the torch. I've been blessed to have won back-to-back poster of the year awards - an accomplishment that hasn't been equalled since the days of Roger1807 and dial-up internet connections.

If it was up to me - I'd do a Silence Suzuka thread tomorrow, a Lava Man on the day after that, and some Trivia Tuesday. But the 2yo sales are calling. Another attempt at a summer betting campaign is calling. Another glorious Presque Isle Downs meet is calling. What's not calling is anyone on my cell phone, I forgot to pay that bill. Sh!t.


I'll end a storied career with these final words: Hate gave us Columbine, Hate gave us the assassination of Dimebag Darrell, Hate of Steeler fans brought me back here a couple of weeks ago.

I wanted to say adieu and ask if perhaps it would be alright for people to post their favorite DrugS is leaving thread. You know, a look back at all the farewells and whatnot.

I liked this one...

http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39999

I suppose I should post the companion thread, huh?

6 days prior...

http://www.derbytrail.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39913

In fact I had thought of penning something and calling it 6 Days in December in your honor but was too upset and then forgot about it.

Anyhoo sock boy, good bye and good luck.

Okay now I need to figure out how to do a poll - how many days till your glorious resurrction.

Bye!

If you were serious about quitting the board, then you would commit the internet equivalent of suicide-by-cop. Post something so inflammatory or objectionable that Byk has no choice but to ban you.

I heard you signed up at Alex Brown's forum and are planning a hostile takeover.
