Thanks

by R.J. Anderson on Sep 30, 2008 1:26 PM EDT

To everyone who reads or comments here on any given day I want to extend my gratitude towards you. All of you have made this the best Rays community/site on the interwebs and for that not only am I grateful but also inspired to do the best I can to provide entertainment and information. As I discussed last night I am taking steps to enhance the coverage around here even more, which includes additional (active) voices.

Stick with us through the playoffs and the off-season, plus you know our playoff coverage is going to be insane after all these years (and added days) of waiting.

So thanks for your dedication and support of DRB. Things are only going to get better.

Thanks to you RJ. I’ve learned a great deal from checking this site every day. I’m not much of a stats guy, but your VORB is pretty high.

Thanks a lot RJ

If you didn’t consistently produce high quality work I don’t think this would be as good of a place. With that said how bout a curtain call for everyone that takes time out of their day to try to enlighten the world. I’m referring specifically to Bob and Sky. You guys have different approaches, but I try to miss nothing that you put out there. Everybody here contributes something great regular season and for once we’re still playing. First we’re gonna beat Minnesota (or Chicago), then we’re gonna beat the Angels (or Boston), then we’re gonna go all the way to the WORLD SERIES,
BYAHHHHHH

Thank you RJ

And for everyone else, putting up with my off the wall, perhaps schneid remarks. Some are in gist, some are serious, but I do care. I may have a different way of caring about it, but its the interaction that makes the site great. Awesome facilitation and obvious, great, great people.

Thanks to everyone, my blessings to all and enjoy….

Even though I am sure I am an exception to the post

I hereby offer my undying devotion to the team and vow to continue shitposting and making unfunny comments and generally dragging down the quality of all threads to the best of my ability.

I serve the lulz.

There is a reason this is my homepage

I love the Rays, and this is by far and away the best site to get the content all of us fanatics crave. The couple weeks when my laptop crapped out in early september may have been the worst of my life.

Keep it up RJ, and thanks for all of the info and insight you have provided here for us.
