I made an ass of myself on several occasions here at SJ, and I totally reported the death of Mandela when he was still alive. I made some terrible mistakes, and for that I apologize. I'm not writing this thread to get sympathy or anything of that nature. Just wanted to say that I'll be deleting my account after this thread of mine. I've had some great discussions here at SJ, and I just wanted to make it clear that I didn't copy and paste all my new threads or replies, a lot of them were from me.

I've met some decent people here, especially in the Wrestling thread, there's a lot of great passionate wrestling fans here, and I for one can appreciate that. Some members that really stuck out for me is:

-Baron
-Harley(hopefully you can get your son back)
-Mystery
-93Devil


I've left a few off the list, but you guys were guys were always nice to me...well most of the time ;)

To all the other members(well most of them) you guys know your stuff when it comes to sports, it's incredible how much you know.

Anyway, that's all I have to say...I know some of you don't care, or will laugh at this thread or just mock me, do as you wish.

I bid you farewell.
 
Since when is making an ass of yourself and posting unfounded, untrue crap a reason to leave SportsJournalists.com?
 
Now that he's leaving, which of Ilmago's threads belong in the SJ Hall of Fame?

Don't we have to wait 5 years?
 
But funny.

Don't be so hard on yourself. As Ragu noted, being an asshole hasn't kept some of us from lofty positions around here (like me).

If everyone who has been an asshole here left, we'd have, oh, never mind. I'm not going there.

Quick, before you go....Bobby Bonilla Andy Pettitte. Hall of Famer or not?

Fixed, to make it more topical ...

I can appreciate the sincerity of the original post in this thread, but in terms of creativity, emotion and really grabbing me, I just don't see how I can put it in the top 10 farewell posts in SportsJournalists.com history.
 
Hope you stay but if you are going to leave follow proper protocol. Don't post a tearful goodbye cruel SJ note. If you decide to come back at some point note will follow you around.

It's better form to just delete your account and slink away unnoticed.

Then you can come back as another handle and nobody will know the difference ;)
