Lucky Luciano Posted December 12, 2007 Report Share Posted December 12, 2007 was on the first page of the old bear report bear forum when it started in '96 in sun prairie, wi as choad and had a double moniker - Lucky Luciano also. once they moved to their west coast site i left and dropped into the bearshrine, around 2000, and stayed, occasionally visiting the bear report site till they went pay to play. was there when it went to bearstalk and finally dropped in here to the final move (hopefully).

Alaskan Grizzly Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Hello. Dave here, formerly known as Alaskan Bear. Came over after "Bearstalk" was relocated. What happened, did Bobby Petrino have control on that site or what? I am 37 years old and live in Alaska...hence the moniker. I want to thank the guys that set this site up to get back to talking Bears stuff. The loss of that "refuge" was most definitely missed. Good to see everyone here.

Bearial Assault Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm 23 years old, just old enough to have been alive when the Bears won the Super Bowl but not old enough to remember it, so I'm itching for a Bears Super Bowl victory. Hopefully next year will be the year because it sure isn't going to be this year. I figured that the creation of the new board was a good time to get involved in the discussion. I look forward to talking Bears football with all of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brletich Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Found this site last year via Soxtalk. It's weird seeing more than half a dozen posts here a day. You should have seen Bearstalk where most of us came from then...it was very active. When Nfoligno gets his end in gear and shows up he will have at least 10 posts a day all by himself...usually arguing with himself just for the sake of arguing!

_|_ Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I found the place via soxtalk also, but with so little traffic I forget to stop by. Sounds like this may get interesting. I've closer to retirement age than High School. Was lucky enough to attend a lot of games in the mid 80s, unlucky enough to attend a lot of games between the early 70s and today. Live in the United States most of the time. Have ex's here and there. Take on a different name on each board and sometimes get confused.

DABEARSDABOMB Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 I'm a 24 year old who graduated about a year and a half ago and is now stuck right in the middle of the real world (ie working 40-60 Hr's per week as an auditor for a Big 4 accounting company). Been a Bears fan since I can remember. The first real team of players I remember watching was during the Walsh/Kramer era and last season had to be the funnest Bears season I can remember (since I was a whole 2 in 85). I've been a member of Bearstalk (originally Dabearsshrine), which was an old rivals site for probably 7-8 years. It was probably the first forum I ever joined (now I'm a member of this and a Sox forum). Somewhere along the lines I became an admin (when the site became Bearstalk) and I helped out a bit with the front page for a year or so. My worst series of post were probably related to my consistent blathering of how the Bears must trade down and draft Cade McNown. Unfortunately the Bears thought I knew what I was talking about. I think my best posts were the consistent berates I gave to one Terry O'Shea, who IIRC, I begun calling for his firing around the 4th week of the season.

LT2_3 Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 If there's going to be a "who are you" thread for the people from BearsTalk to ID themselves, then as one of the mods here, I'd like to add this thread as a place for everyone to say hello. Welcome to this way of organizing the words "Bears" and "Talk"! I'm one of the guys who came over from Soxtalk when this board was created, and it'll certainly be nice to have some new minds around here to pick! Hey Balta - What's with the 1701-A designation? Personally, I'd be more of a 1701-D myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mancunian Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Hello, I'm Grant. Been a Bears fan since the early 80's when they were first shown on British TV. Really fell in love with the Bears because of #34. Hooked ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowlingtwig Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Hey Uncle Buck, Pix is doing good, tired due to all the overtime that he works. We work together and he introduced me to BearsTalk about 1 1/2 years ago. I am 27 years old, married with a new born named Jarrett. I hope to have his pick uploaded in my signature shortly. The pic will be of the both us taken shortly before this past game against the Skins. I have been married for a little over 2 years. P.S. I bash on her quite a bit on here but its all in good fun. And just in case anyone asks, she knows. She was a member of the last forum although never posted. I will probably try to get her more involved here in the coming months.

balta1701-A Posted December 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Hey Balta - What's with the 1701-A designation? Personally, I'd be more of a 1701-D myself. Well, I was commissioned as Balta1701 over @ Soxtalk. I signed up here 2nd, so this one received the 1701-A. I'm Balta1701-B over at TalkBulls.com.

Felix Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I'm Alex, 20 years old and am going to the University of Minnesota as a Sports Management major. I'm working with the Utah Jazz (along with the Salt Lake Bees and Miller Sports Motorpark) next summer, and hope to gain an internship with one of the sports teams in Chicago for the summer after next. I've been on Soxtalk for a couple of years, and have been here on TalkBears since it was made (but, similar to some of the others, didn't check the board that much considering the lack of activity). My favorite sport is baseball (Sox), with college basketball (Tubby!) and football coming right after it. Football is a close 4th (which doesn't do the sport justice), and the rest of the sports are randomly placed after that. I enjoy long walks on the beach and throwing rocks at Wisconsin fans (not really, but I do believe that you're better dead than red ). It seems the average age here has jumped a good 10 years or so, which is interesting to see for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I suppose I'll reintroduce myself. I'm 18 years old, I was probably around 15 at the time I first joined this site way back when. My favorite teams are the Bears, Bulls, Cardinals, and the Illini, probably in that order. In college I'm deciding on whether to major in Computer animation or Sports management, haha.. I hope all of you have a great year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
