1000 posts

First let me say that I've enjoyed my short time here immensely. I want to personally thank the wonderful BOTLs/SOTLs that make this site so very unique.

From FOGs like SamClemmons, Matt R, coventrycat86, cohibasurfer, AVB, Devin Cole, EmodX, Allofus123, SKYDIVNEKD and Rod (I couldn't forget you!) to the newest crop of BOTLs like Jonesy, jfields, smellysell and Phlicker I suggest this forum is in great hands! :thumbs:

So, in honor of reaching 1000 posts, I offer this contest. The winner will get 5 of the 7 Regional Exclusivos released in 2006.

One simple question...

Who will the Baltimore Ravens draft today with their first round pick (29th overall)?

One answer per BOTL. They should pick around 5pm. Once the pick has been made, this contest is over. In the event that no one picks the correct player, the winner will be the BOTL that selects the player drafted closest to the Ravens pick.

Good Luck! And thank you for having me!!!

He does live in Vegas. The question is what does Ogden like to smoke?

Very cool. Is his fairly accessible out and about?

Been to his house several times, he lives in Anthem CC...I don't think I ever saw a humidor. Funny, I use to run into him about town, one day at the Fashion Show mall he was with a couple of friends and his son...we chatted and then went to have lunch. He's soooo big (tall) that most people just look at him but don't recognize him. He sponsors a golf tournament every year around June for his Foundation...

That's awesome. I've run into him around Baltimore during the season. You're right! He's huge! All of 6'8" and add a 5-6 inch 'fro to boot!

He's always been friendly when I've run into him. I'm glad he decided to come back for his 12th season. I hear he still drives the Range Rover he bought his rookie year. Any truth to that?

[opusXmarco]
