MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Matty,
Just wanted to let you know you have done a tremendous job with this website. I first joined mid season last year and you have done so much in the short time I have been here that it boggles my mind. You Live, Eat and Breath the Redskins!!!!!
Thanks so much for all your hard work and effort. This is certainly a fan site to be envied!!!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Yea I totally agree...I joined about the same time and this site has become my main site for Skins news and everything else Redskins. There have been som many improvements made to this site that make it so great. I know it took some hard work and a lot of time..props go out to MattyK for all your hard work to make the site so great!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Cheers to Matt. I actually sent him a message asking about his hard work before I read this, so GJ there Matt.

I know redskins.com was voted best media website if I'm not mistaken. Do they evaluate forums such as this around the league if all teams participate talking about their runner up teams? It be nice to get him some recognition for that, beyond just us.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

What MattyK72 has done is even more incredible when you consider what this site was when it all began. To develop this site from a humble Yahoo Group and build it to its present-day form is truly amazing.

What he has built is so much more than just a fan website; it's a strong, thriving online community of football fans, many of whom consider this place their online home.

He has drawn together a talented and dedicated group of contributors and moderators (and even a Graphic Design Pimp!), and he has allowed those individuals, along with the members they serve, to take a very active role in shaping and building this community.

At the same time, he has carefully preserved the essential qualities of the site that brought people here in the first place: simplicity of design, ease-of-use, aesthetic value, and last but not least intelligent, informed and civil (if not always friendly) dialogue.

We don't say it enough, but THANK YOU, Matty! :food-smil

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

I'm sure I don't say it enough.
Thanks to Matty and everyone else that works on the site!!!
Been here since yahoo groups in 98 or so and been here ever since. For me no need for extremeskins too many useless people.
VIVA LA WARPATH!!!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

mtty and the all the mods make this the best redskin's site by far. The last few months we have be thrown lots of new things(my favorite the arcade). We just got our first newsletter and the warpath film site opened up just recently. Its great you all find new things to add. Great job guys.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

whats up with all the man love? j/k great job by matty and everyone involved

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Man Law: Matty is THE MAN!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Yup, I never thank everyone enough for giving me this place. Honestly, I wouldn't know what to do with myself during the day if this didn't exist.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

If it weren't for this website I would have quit this job months ago. So I don't know if I should be thanking Matty or cursing him.
I guess I'll go with thanks.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

I will concur with all the previous posts!!! Thank you MATTY!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Who the hell is Mattyk72? I've never heard of this guy.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Thanks for the love guys

It's not all me though, this place really is a team effort from the mods to all of the members. We all make this a great place.

So [U]thank you [/U]for making this such a great community!

Now carry on with your matty lovin' ;)

Seriously though, you do rock my face off with this website. That goes for all you mods out there. And all the members who make it funny too (nice work TMC and BSB especially).

Special props go out from me to CrazyCanuck. He's responsible for my presence at this site. One fateful day in February 2005, a young and innocent Schneed10 googled for "Redskins Salary Cap." Results popped up and Schneed10 wandered into a veritable candyland of salary cap data... CrazyCanuck's Warpath Cap Sheets. They broke the numbers down by player, displayed signing bonus allocation and roster bonus allocation, they broke out the practice squad, and best of all, they were done correctly and were updated frequently!!! Schneed10 was merry and lived happily ever after. I've said it before and I'll say it again, CrazyCanuck is my hero.

Matty you def get a lot of credit for this place. After all, you brought all these guys together. All the mods and the members bring something to the table. Well done.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Thank you as well Schneed, and all the other people I've met on here and talk to on a daily basis (you know who you are, because you're on my buddy list. It's an elite and special group, much like Delta Force).

Now that I've noticed it, I think we can also thank BSB for renewing the idea of talking about yourself in the third person.

TheMalcolmConnection out.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Matty,

:goodjob:

I'm not a talker, I'm not a talker!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

I thank you schneed for the kind words. The BSB is glad to bring it back malcolm.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

You guys never cease to amaze me. One of the things that makes this website such a special place is that immediately following Redskins games I can hardly wait to see what everyone here is talking about. I still remember the night when Santana dusted Roy Williams twice. What made that night even more special is the enthusiasm that erupted on Warpath that evening/morning. What a memorable nignt that was! I truly esteem the opinions regarding the Redskins stated here above all the national media, and to some extent the local media. For me, that's how real this place is.

Matty you've created a culture that is unlike any fan site. I say that because, it seems like only the true Redskins fans stick around, yet even the casual fans feel welcome and have something to add. That's to your credit and the guys that make this place so special. Everything flows from the top down. But I think the ultimate compliment, in my opionion, is when fans of other teams frequent our site to see "what we think". To me that's probably the ultimate compliment to you and TheWarpath.

As a moderator, should I start a [i]new[/i] thread requesting that someone puts their hands down [u]my[/u] pants, or should I do so here?

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Brud, we can't put our hands down your pants if you're not wearing any. You ALWAYS forget that detail.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

here we go!!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Brud, I think the reason that Matty is getting all this man-love (and whatever kind from 12th) is that he threatens physical violence through PM's. Just don't let him know that I told you.

I've already got my hands full carrying CrazyCanuck's jockstrap. Sorry Brud.

There you go, okay dude...so what is that you know about 12M? Spill the freakin beans!!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Like I said before, nothing I want to post here. ;)

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

My attorney has advised me to remind you all that any requests for "hands down pants" are purely metaphorical, and should not be construed as an attempt to circumvent any of the standing restraining orders against me. In addition, Mattyk72 does indeed rock, and any glory I personally receive from my efforts here is to be shared between all moderators.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Also, remember when I mentioned that you wore no pants earlier, that was also metaphorical. I meant that you have nothing to hide, nor do you put up shields to hide your feelings.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

thanks once again for letting me up my post count with minimal effort. In future could you just manually edit it to save me some time though?

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

I only wear metaphorical pants. Or I wear only metaphorical pants. I can never remember which.

Oh, and Matty-- Great site, yatta yatta, man love, hands, etc. And to all y'all who makes this the best site around.

Curiously, I [u]do[/u] have something to hide. That's why I have to wear real pants. It's also the reason for the restraining orders.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

I meant no disrespect to any and all of you who make this site a reality. I was just moved when I got the excited first newsletter from Matty with all the new options and stuff. I was just floored with how amazing this site has become so quickly and know there are many hours put in behind the scene that make this site so kick ass!!! Matty was just the guy who I see all over this place
My hat is off to [B][I][U][FONT=Tahoma]ALL OF YOU[/FONT] [/U][/I][/B]who make this place a reality. I have been a Skins fan since 72....and never have been prouder than I am these days...and as informed!!!
BrudLee.....consider your self diddled on this end....metaphorically speaking of course!!

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

If I left a metaphoric mess, I apologise. Metaphorically.

Re: MattyK72...THE MAN
 

Messes are best left metaphorically. Less clean up that way!
