Wow! 15 years?!?

 

Congrats and THANK YOU! Your hard work has kept me checking this site and these boards about a dozen times a day for a decade and a half now.

 

Keep up the excellent work! Here's to the next 15 years! :cheers:

1. You're so old it's unbelievable.
 
2. This is nothing, wait 3 years until you get SuperDrafted
 
3. Thanks, Dan/Serge/Iain, whomever.

Just thinking how old i will be in 15 years from now.  Fuck me,

I guess I'll be able to use some AARP benefits and help support the site.  

 

Congrats!!

Big time congratulations MF! :cheers:

 

All the major sports websites cover soccer now, and every MLS fan + his brother has started his own blog or webcast, but it wasn't that long ago that this was one of the only places online to read and talk MLS. It certainly was the first MLS team forum and I know many imitators have popped up in the past 15 years. No one can match the original!

 

I found this place over 10 years ago as an avid 13 or 14-year-old fan of the Metrostars. I lurked for a little while before creating a profile, but then this place led me to ESC, which led to me forming some of the strongest, longest, deepest friendships of my life. 

 

Thanks MF! A legend and a pioneer!

Dan, we all know none of this would have been possible without you.  Thank's for all that you do, and thanks to all that have helped you along the way.  Even Harraby.

MF - thanks for all the good work. It's a great website and message board.. I check it daily.. I'm hooked.

Also, some great articles as well. That one about famous Metro brothers was downright hysterical.
