Now, I was somewhat of a newbie when "Annie" was running wild at PR... but I found an amazing resemblence. Could it be??? I was surfing different sites this evening as I am beginning to anticipate Saturday. I stopped at the Chicago and Minneapolis newspapers as I was interested in what they're writers are predicting for those teams. Low-and-behold, I believe I found Annie! Is that bad that I cannot even remember his actual screen name? www.twincities.com/ci_12186691?source=most_viewed

Where is Uncle Billy Bonz,Midway Monsters and Wicked Koala when you need them, especially if this is Greenbaypackerfanforlife31. Oh it is, I finally saw the picture, I was kind of hoping to see him with Aaron Rodgers, but to see him with another hack in Clayton really clears it up.

That's him. The guy they called "Annie." I never thought he was as bad a poster as some people did. I guess he just rubbed them the wrong way, I thought he had some interesting insights, seeing as how he was actually traveling to NYC to the draft each year, and giving us "first hand info," not second hand info. The others? Only one showed up here, and it was for a brief time. I visited Zobel's site. Not bad. He always was ahead of the curve on players who were coming out in the draft. I enjoyed his blogs, and he does hit the nail on the head on a lot of young talent. Someday he's going to be part of a big service on the internet. We may be seeing the "next" Mel Kiper. draftheadquarters.com/

I will say anyone could be better than Mel Kiper.
Sometimes that guy is clueless I swear.

I agree he wasn't bad, I remember he rubbed UBB and Midway the wrong way though in the smack forum when he kept on saying that they were the same posters than UBB and Midway would screw with him. But when he took over though for moderator thats where I lost respect for him. Funniest thing that he tried to pull was when he wanted other posters to buy his draft guide rather than just post it on the internet.

I faintly remember some of the guide sales idea. But interestingly enough, he now has a guide, and a book, which is available. He's moved right along in that aspect.
Someday he's going to be well known in those circles. There aren't many people with the dedication to that phase of the game that do a solid job. He's appeared to be one of them.

We should get him to post here. LOL.
No way in hell I'd ever work for the Vikings, especially if I were a Packer fan. Or is it some elaborate plan by Shawn to take the Vikes down from the inside?
Wonder what he thinks of Rodgers now?

He may end up posting here. He's welcome.

He was a very passionate person about his thoughts and felt almost too strong about them. That rubbed many people wrong, and he was ganged up on. There's a reaction to every action, and unfortunately his actions got him banned at PR. May I add, that he never started the crap. But he sure put many people in there place, and that didn't sit well with the select few.

And that select few are still over there acting exactly like they did before, and all with the court jester's approval.
