It's just like you guys to take a perfectly serious thread about a freakshow of a person and turn it into something dirty.

New Category: Best Use of FF
Nominee--HMO for organizing a 48-person BUS TRIP, that Super said would never happen; my understanding is that Dwayne Carson announced in Convo that students should go to FF to register for the trip, meaning about 9,000 students heard about FF that way.
AG
Fumble should win this easily, and probably should have the award renamed after him; but I also miss Peter Parker, who never posts anymore.

The award has always been named after Fumble. Fumble was AG.

It's funny how different the 2 posters were despite being the same person. I really didn't like AG. But I did like Fumble. I had no idea they were the same person until somebody mentioned it after his death.

AG means "Another Guest." It comes back from the old Firehouse where guests could post. People always posted as guest, so to make his different, he posted as "Another Guest" and later shortened it to A.G.

Rogers3, the Firehouse days were before my time. Thanks for filling us in on that, Super. I couldn't have answered the question myself.

I guess some of the time we take certain things for granted as being known around here.

Wow. I feel really stupid. I missed all of that about Fumble, AG. That makes so much more sense now.

Neither of those comes anywhere close to the guy who keeps showing up in the basketball forum every season.

If we want to vote on this, we can. However, it seems like a two horse race with Liberty4Life and Matshark...
