Unfortunately, in research done by MIT, post count and wisdom have shown no positive correlation. Research shows that the higher the post count, the more wisdom one has lost due primarily to the amount of time sitting in front of the screen on said message board. This is known as the Billy Madison "Puppy Who Lost it's Way" effect, where the poster is "now dumber for reading that post" over, and over, and over.

I'm actually surprised USee is still able to put together complete sentences after all the time he spends here. We can all congradulate him on that, at least. +k for USee!
You win! You always do!

Maybe I'll just stay at 4,999 for a while. I don't want to lose anymore brain cells from too much posting. After all, look at Mr. Ypsi!

It has apparently already started with me...as I can't spell congratulate correctly.

So... why is USee now listed as a "Guest" poster? 

Has he gone bye-bye?  Did he only have the limited 5000 post user account?  Has he been kicked from the site?  Hmm...

Cliff Clavens Buffalo Theory:

"Well you see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as
the slowest buffalo and when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones
at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a
whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by
the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain
can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive
drinking of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and
weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates
the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And
that, Norm, is why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Saw this story and even though it involved the Mount Union Wrestling Team bus, I know that a lot of wrestlers are also football players.  This is something that we don't want to think about when traveling...

Mr. Ypsi

Perusing the all-decade selections, I was startled by one name that did NOT appear.  Can there possibly have been 12 LBs better than Matt Wenger??!! :o

Nonetheless, congrats to the CCIWers who DID make it:

1st team: J. D. Sheldon (Augie), Blaine Westemeyer (Augie), Pete Ittersagen (Wheaton; he was ALSO 2nd team as a return specialist)

2nd team: Mackenzie Hay (Augie), Andy Studebaker (Wheaton)

3rd team: Mike Clark (Augie)

[With all those Augie guys, how did they not win 6-7 titles! :D]

Its hard to imagine that Wenger didnt crack the top 12 LBS of the Decade.  He was a 2nd team All-American as a Junior and a 1st teamer as a Senior as well as DPOY for D3football.com  (i wont get into outside publications, like being an AFCA 1st team All American twice because this a a d3football.com team), 3 time All-Region award winner, North Region DPOY as a senior,  2 time DPOY in the CCIW, 3 time 1st team All Conference player, was on a team that won 4 Conf titles and went to the playoffs all 4 years he played (including ending his senior year as the #3 ranked team in the nation).  I did read that the DPOY was only around since 2006, so some of those LBs probably didnt have the chance to earn it...either way, I would put him in the top 12 of the decade especially if 2010 goes into the voting.

Nope.   Hasn't been heard from on either basketball or football boards.  I have a theory, though I haven't had time to validate.
