After 33,333 posts, I'm rebooting.  It's not a "retirement" or anything of that nature (although I have slowed down a bit).  Rather, I wanted a fresh look, and a chance to be "Gerald Green" again (and Shaq and Jermaine and the rest of the gang).

Some stats:

Wow, I'm having trouble processing this.  It's a just a little too weird to see you without all the stars! Well, let me help your reboot with a TP.

Congrats on the new name!

These stats alone are worth a few TP's ... the undisputed backbone of CelticsBlog ... don't know what we'd do without you, Roy! ;)

I have been ghosting this board for years but didn't make an account until after the loss in the Finals.

I have to say without a doubt, you are a treasure to the Celtics online community keep up the good work.

he he he he....I gave you TP's before because you earned them.  Now, however, it is going to cost you....or maybe not...TP, Roy!

Words really can't cover this - you are a legend...

All I can say is (kidding) are you obsessed?

Averaging over 25 comments per day - wow!

Well, I spent seven years of my life doing a job that was probably a little too easy; being a government employee wasn't always super-challenging work.

Now that I'm working for myself, I've slowed down.

Thanks for the kind words, everybody.  I promise, I didn't start this topic for my ego; it was more to let people know where to PM me.

Was just looking through another thread and was about to go ntus, lol. I don't like it :(. I find Roy Hobbs, is so much more visually appealing than Roy (Redux), lol.

I guess I'll get used to it with time.

Nickagneta take note, Roy Hobbs should be allocated to the CB hall right away.

Roy, you're going to have trouble living up to those numbers, but it'll be fun to measure Redux against Hobbs in about a year.  ;)

Congrats

Congrats Roy - I think you should put a goatee on Hackman and pretend to be your own evil twin though.  ;)
