oh wait he doesn't qualify? maybe he should, idk?
I agree he should. I can remove the rank-up stipulation. This is a celebration of new members that are good for the forum so I think this one should be included.
First nomination, thanks V8s.
It's football season in America. Real football; men's football; gridiron, pigskins, goalposts, and hard-hitting, corn-fed Americans. One of the big things the NFL does this time of year is celebrate the accomplishments of the year's new players, who are affectionately refereed to as rookies.
Hey mate!
Very nice idea, good to see established member of the community "honoring" the new guys - the good ones.
But as much as I like your idea: Sorry for being off-topic BUT........................ I couldnt resist but comment on what I quoted above! There is only one real football and you know it, dont you! 
Obviously you are mixing up things and talk about that something called American Football --> some ppl refer to it as a sport... 
Ironically, I was just looking for one of your posts so I could nominate you. Now I'm not so sure.
You know I just wanted to tease you, dont you...
Regarding that nomination... Well, I already feel very honored, especially when its coming from a guy like you! (and I mean this!)P.S. I got the curve, right?
