Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
With training camp just a few days away it's time for the annual TAF's Official TheWarpath.net Rookie Welcome presented by Mattyk72 and the Mod Tang Clan, a time honored tradition since summer 2005.
We've got some new faces here at TheWarpath.net heading into the new season, and on behalf of everyone as we approach the 2006 season...welcome! We all know how great this site is (many thanks as always to Matty). Besides joking about Question 3, pie, and other eccentricities we even give and seek real advice-construction loans, new car, buy or rent, traffic violations. But at our core, we are all here because we are football fans. And for most of us, Redskins fans. And for those that have not been with us from start to finish of a full season I think everyone else would agree with me that there is nothing like being able to, at a moment's notice, jump online and talk Redskins with thousands of other passionate fans. Remember how the first thing so many of us wanted to do last September was race back home from wherever we were watching MNF to talk about Santana's two touchdowns? I, along with many others, have high hopes for the Redskins this season. But I'm no Norman Einstein, I can't truly predict what will happen with the Skins. But I guarantee that no matter what there will be no better place to share the ups and downs than here at TheWarpath.net. And it'll be great to hear some new voices that have joined us in recent months. So again, welcome to all the warpath rookies. Now...can I get a What! What!

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
Things will definitely be picking up here very soon. Just a piece of advice to the vets here, let's support the newbies and try to welcome everyone in with open arms.
Sure there are going to be plenty of duplicate posts and topics we've already discussed 500 times, but let's keep in mind we were all in the same boat at one point. I'll even try to not throw a tantrum about duplicate posts.

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
this seems like a good place to mention that guys who've been in the league for 2+ years can't be put on practice squad
I must have repeated that about 400 times last pre season :/ |

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
WHAT! WHAT!
I have only been on the Warpath since the start of the off-season. I can't wait for the season to start (anybody else?). This year, though, will be even cooler now that I've found a place to share my thoughts and opinions about the greatest sports franchise with some of the most insightful Redskins fans there are. A lot of people on here do a fantastic job of posting intelligent and civil discussions and for that I thank all of you.

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
I don't know Matty. There's not a whole lot of controversy going into this season for once. Even though this is only my second season here, I'm ready for things to actually start picking up. Sometimes it feels like we're on Oprah after a loss where we all just whine and bitch.

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
But last year, specifically the last six weeks were amazing.

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
It was just three short years ago that I was a newbie. Back then, Matty flicked my ears in the back of the bus while TAFKAS tied my shoelaces together. Yeah, not much has changed.
What? What? err What! What!

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
What What! I remember when I too was a Warpath newbie. <sigh> I was so naive - I thought TAFKAS was funny, Matty a mastermind and that Brud was a friggin genius. As I've gotten to know them through the warpath, I've realized just how wrong I was.
Seriously, as always thanks for a great site. Can't wait for the new season!

Re: Official Warpath Rookie Welcome
What! WHAT! May every game be like a repeat of last years Dallas games! (with the exception of the Randy Thomas thing).
