Bill, Rich, and All the Moderators

Thank you for bestowing this honor upon me.  Be assured I will do my best to help facilitate and enrich any and everyones knowledge of my Beloved BLUE.

As I have stated to a few on here, when I first came upon BBWC back in 1998, i fancied myself extremely knowledgeable about our history.   Then I "met" Christopher Allen and quickly realized that my storehouse of knowledge/memories was very small indeed when compared to Christopher.  He was a marvel, a veritable encyclopedia, and i am still in awe and miss him a great deal.

In no way do i rival Chris or a couple of others that I have read religiously, and I never will.  I do have memories, books, resources from which to draw on.  BUT the most important resource will be the members of BBH.  I collect much information from all of you with your recollections and postings, and will always continue to do so.

I view this position more of being a facilitator and instigator to crack open for review and discussion and "trips down memory lane" for everyone who wants to recall or to learn about our very RICH history.

I have not formulated a total plan yet, but be assured my goal is to make a "click" on the "Giants History" section something all will enjoy and hopefully some of our newer and younger members will find engaging and want to embrace.

I have always believed you can not be totally vested in your "family" without being cognizant of your "family tree".

To everyone, on my profile is listed my personal email, please feel free to use it.  Or PM me anytime with any thoughts, questions, or even challenges.

I am not the be all nor end all of Giants History, but I will do my best to give my best.

Again, THANK YOU to everyone involved.

conratulations! hey maybe we could get a online foto album going. Now I admit to being selfish and having a personal interest in seeing these pictures but we could start with all the pic nics and the fall get togethers that were held.
somewhere somebody has the foto of the first bar b q , we were BBWC then, I sent a copy of the group foto to everyone that attended.
then we could have the vette's group fotos taken over the years from the game get togethers at giants stadium. then get the parking lot fotos of folks that have met up at away games.
just a thought. some of these fotos would have folks that have passed on since they were taken and would be great to remember when and pay some small homage to the departed. I know Id like to see it.
over and out
weeze
