Ah gotcha. Thought he might have worked on it 

 

Next spring, the NEW USS Little Rock will be commissioned right next to the old one.  I have been told that this is the first time in US Naval History that two ships with the same namesake will coexist in the same waters.  (I don't know if that's right.)  There is going to be one hell of a party down there; stay tuned and get tickets.

Next spring? What are the odds that that will coincide with our SS game meetup?

I love me some Jack Eichel!

 

But there's more to it than that. I'm not an avid collector by any means, but I like to pick up some Bills and Sabres cards here and there. My avatar is a pretty rare Eichel rookie card. It's part of a Parkhurst rookie insert set by Upper Deck that has three parts (green-blue-green). Last year my dad hunted down all three and gave them to me as a gift. 

 

Red is the rarest, so I chose that one for my avatar. Seemed like a good combo: my favorite player, and a nice representation of how the Sabres are a family bonding thing for me. Not to get all sappy in this thread or anything... Here's all three:

That's a pretty cool story.

At this point, I'm not sure I'll ever change my avatar. Ink, Eleven, and True are the 3 that come to mind where if they changed their avatars, I'd be lost for a week on here

 

Edit: And dudacek + Taro

 

I still think of Blue as a great big azure cow.

 

No great story behind mine; it just kind of represents a metaphor for what I do on here.

I've thought about changing it from time to time, but nothing's ever really caught my attention as being worthwhile.

Maybe if I could commission Josie to paint me something.
