While we already have the Welcome Forum, various introduction threads in the team forums and the Random Thought Thread, I thought we should have a central place to mix and chat so welcome to the S2 Mixer. This site has a lot of forums and there is the potential for people to get stuck in their own silos, so I'm encouraging everyone to meet everyone.</p> Please start off introducing yourself by answering the following:</p> What is your favorite sport? What is your favorite not-sports topic? Provide one random fact about yourself </p>
</p> What is your favorite sport? Basketball and Rugby League are a dead heat What is your favorite not-sports topic? Music Provide one random fact about yourself. I have recorded a triple double, a hat-trick (in Rugby League and Union) and still to this day hold a record at my high school in the 100m breastroke. Also I captained 5 sports my senior year in High School (Athletics, Swimming, Rugby, Australian Rules Football (like Gaelic football with more contact on a cricket sized field) and BBall) </p> </p>
Max</p> 1) Football (OR as you incorrectly say Soccer)</p> 2) Be-Atches</p> 3) Studying Economics, Business, Maths and History at A-Level.</p>
DaBullz... I mean Denny Crane</p> My favorite sport is actually Baseball, though I've been following the NBA a lot closer in recent years. For some reason, I fell like every american sport but baseball has suffered to a great degree as its matured: NFL is too well rehearsed, NBA the court is too small and basket too low, etc.</p> My favorite non-sports topic is probably politics, though I am a musician and love to play my various instruments (drums, bass, guitar, and piano/keyboards). At some point in the near future, I'll probably focus some on getting S2 a nice politics discussion forum going.</p> Random fact: While you see my programming work here at S2, I spent decades as a video game designer/programmer for companies like EA and Activision.</p> </p>
What is your favorite sport? Baseball/Basketball What is your favorite not-sports topic? Hum. Uhhhhh. How much Boston sucks at everything. Provide one random fact about yourself? I'm Indian. And awesome. Yeah. Almost forgot. I whore fragments to make not-so-humerous remarks.
