50,000 Views!

Today the site passed 50,000 all time page views.  I am sure a lot of the views were other people looking for legitimate information about their favorite superhero (only to be disappointed or, at least, happily distracted).  And a bunch might be Google's web crawlers too.  But a lot can be said about 6 years of hard work and dedication by you people.  Every owner.  Every watcher. Every Commissioner.  This league has worked because everyone has dedicated time to it (be it a little or a lot) and together we all created something truly awesome.

Congrats everyone.  Now comment below about your most memorable moment in the league.

Ryan said...

Awesome!

To be honest, there are too many to pick my favorite. Everyone has done some amazing work on this site.

So I'm just going to be selfish and say... Universe Bowl II. :)

Artifact said...

Oh yeah. I can't decide which playoff loss I liked the most.

UB2 is probably at the top, pal.

My most memorable moments in the league are the drafts. Just the pure ridiculousness of it all is what makes them so great (especially the early ones with such a stupid amount of characters). There have been so many great matches written over the years; but it is the friendships that have blossomed amongst like-minded nerds that, in my opinion make all the hard work worth it a hundred times over.

The memory I have that springs to mind, is when I beat Oblivio my first year in and the subsequent trash talk that followed. Good times.

Creatively, my favorite memories are the years I've written and run the Consolation Rounds. Those are by far my favorite things to write.

my favorite moment was beating the commish for the season 4 championship and forcing a regime change.  WOOOOOOO, and prior to that, as Krisatu mentioned, "to be the man, you have to beat the man, and in consolation, i am most definitely the man, WOOOOOO"
 
ahhhhh, but my powers of seeing the future have also told me the best is yet to come, just wait till 100,000 page views.

I second draft hilarity. FREE DC SPIDER-MAN! And the consolation team up w Logical Genocide was fun. Logical Annihilation is obsolete, though. The Royal Grindhouse? Beckerman's Highness?

DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man! DC Spider-Man!

Ha... Okay Nick. How about this draft memory from way back... Built Ford Tough selects The Veronica Mars Crew... Met by evil glares from his wife.

Ryan said...

Haha. God that was amazing. I am honestly surprised their marriage lasted after that Draft Pick.

Archr5 said...

"Wait... Awesome Cats Voltron or crappy Car Voltron?"

And then the look of pure anger that followed.

Ryan said...

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahah.

Oh that one still just makes my day.

Yet another relationship that I am surprised lasted through that year's draft.

My favorite FFL memories are:
1. Upper decking Josh's toilet;
2. Glass tabling with Ryan and Griffin;
3. Water sports with Joe and NFG;
4. Rimming with Nick and Goof;
5. Felching with the Chrises; and
6. Introducing Real Man to the FFL. [Actually sorry about that one].

#6, is definitely the nastiest one of that bunch. Real Man is kind of like a dead dog. But at least the dead dog doesn't run away when you kick it.

as a fellow original league member the kennelz are dismayed by your blatant disrespect and omission of our team in this post.  what does a team have to do to get a lil rub in this league, mercy is no longer an option

Sorry, I didn't forget, but it must have slipped my mind--
