[QUOTE="Jim Prather, post: 820053, member: 431"] I found this site almost ten years ago. Since then, I have visited this site nearly every day - to the point where I have made it my home page on almost all my web browsers. It has become my default site for killing time. :) I am certainly not a prolific poster (as anyone can see from my anemic post count) and this is the first thread I have ever created. I say this to indicate that, in the grand scheme of things, I am not an important person either to this site or to Georgia Tech football. Ultimately, though, I think it is rude to leave without saying goodbye. Last night made me realize that I no longer enjoy watching Georgia Tech football - but not in the way that many of you are immediately going to assume. I realized that, while the losses continue to be painful, the wins no longer bring me joy. After a win, all I feel is a sense of relief. It dawned on me that life is too busy, and too short, to spend so much time on an activity that is an emotional net negative. I knew right then that it was time to step away from Georgia Tech football in general and this site in particular. Before I go, I would like to start by thanking all the moderators. You do yeoman's work in a completely thankless job. I would also like to wish everyone here good fortune and Godspeed. Ultimately you are all dedicated Georgia Tech fans - which makes you a very special and hardy breed! I will particularly miss the lively debates among the posters - even the ones who I personally find obnoxious. :) Best of Luck and THWG, Jim Prather [/QUOTE]
