... to post another poll. But this one is personal for me. Not so nuanced.

Been gnawing on it for a while. Truth is, I've been here since 03-10-2014, but lately I've lost interest in posting here.

Besides the football threads and occasionally the Off Topic thread, I don't post here that much anymore. Baseball is full of crotchety old farts and the B/S/T where I used to enjoy hanging out in and scooping up cards or selling off cards is hardly worth visiting. And the less said about the dismal baseball/football breaks and the ridiculous state of unopened wax, the better.


Blowout is no longer fun for me, and the only joy I get is during football season (which I quit already, according to some NN here)

Anyways should I retire and leave BO forever? And before you go, oh this clown is all talk, yap yap yap. Truth is, I intend to go away forever if I get voted off BO island. No BNut shenanigans of coming back either. I'll leave for real.

The poll will end in a few weeks Whichever way it goes I'll follow it to the T.

Vote me to leave? I'll go, no tears shed. It is what it is.

Vote me to stay? I'll be here talking smack (when it's warranted), making snide remarks/jokes, posting gremlins gifs, creating nuanced poll threads about sloped roofs, hocking hall of very good player cards on the B/S/T. etc

So cast your vote.

You know this is the only gif people want to post







I’ve felt the same way. It’s just football and offtopic at this point. BST is just a waste of time. I used to enjoy the breaks section too. As soon as something came out, there were tons of breaks to check out even for lesser brands. Plus we’re never going to finish Bnut’s contest.

You're cool in my book. The weekly NFL threads would be much diminished without you. But I totally get the lack of interest/burnout. I say next year consider taking a spring/summer hiatus and return full force for the NFL season and see if that changes anything. I know of other long-time members who took time off this year.

My enjoyment of the FB would want without you taking it to FCG over and over.

Is this like a prisoner swap?

Can we trade your retirement for someone else's?

Tanner McKee becomes the next Brady.

Ten years from now, Blowout members wonder whatever happened to the guy who started the McKee thread and then vanished.

In a rare moment of seriousness, I'll say I can relate to this part:

I took a little hiatus this summer just to cut the compulsive participation here and to focus on some things at home and I debate doing more of that this season. I don't have friends that are as maniacal as I about football so I come here for like-minded insanity on game days.

My collecting is WAY down recently. Part of it is my PC is so full/near-complete that the checklist items don't pop up, or do rarely. But I did have a question about 2023 Contenders that members here answered and I do have a 10 card PSA order where if I get a 10 on at least one of six specific cards, it will be a big win for my collection. It's fun to share here.

Maybe just take a break, see how you feel? Despite you occasionally calling me NN, you seem like a good contributor here.

I voted yes because you won't really do it and we'll have another thing to remind you of when you do post.

He's taking his talents to South Beach off blowout.

Maybe.

He should put up a more realistic poll like whether he should take on some D in a dirty ally. That’s more believable.

Nobody for one second thinks he’ll leave. He’s got nowhere else to go.

Hahahaha!

Good one, I was just thinking of that scene a second ago.
