This is going to be kind of odd timing, given the other thread, but hey...

I'm retiring from the boards.  Fun as it's been, and as big a Panther fan as I still am, I think it's time for me to follow Jared Allen's example and ride off into the sunset.

To be clear, I'm not mad at anybody. I'm not upset about anything. I just have a lot going on with my family, primarily that my brother is dying. So I've decided to drop out of the online stuff for a while. Maybe permanently.

It's been fun talking football with everyone, though after getting married - and gaining two teenage kids in the process - I have far less time to talk football and other things. Other priorities have to take precedence now. Many of you will understand.

I'll likely be on the rest of the day just to say farewell but once I log off I won't be back.

I wish everyone the best. And always, always, always, go Panthers.

We haven't always agreed on everything, but I can honestly say that I think the Huddle will miss having you around.

Sorry to hear about your brother. I'll send positive thoughts your way.

Good luck to you in/with everything and maybe you'll get a chance to check back in down the road.

Sorry to hear about your brother @Mr. Scot.  I personally will miss your contributions here.  There has been a steady decline in the quality of posts on here.  So much so that I have almost decided to walk away myself.  When @SCP and @PhillyB stopped posting their weekly edicts on opposing teams this place lost a lot of luster for me.  And now you're leaving also, what will happen to this joint? 

Anyway, sorry about your brother.  Prayers be with your family in this time of sorrow.  Keep Pounding old friend.

Sorry to hear about your brother. Sending my wishes to you and your family. I've enjoyed your content for the short time I've been around this joint. You're probably one of my favorite users on the Huddle.

Hope everything goes as well as it can for you. Thanks for all you've done.

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
