Player Valuation: £50k
I've been lurking incessantly the past few days and thought I would take this relationship to the next level.

How did you find these forums?: Scouring the internet for people that care about Everton because finding people in the flesh is difficult/4:45 AM kick-off times if I want to go to the pub and meet other Blues.

How did you become an Evertonian?: OD'd on World Cup as my form of sanity maintenance while studying for the Bar Exam. Was told by an undergrad classmate (a Spurs supporter) that choosing a PL team as an American is inherently arbitrary, and choosing a top four team purely for that reason is bandwagoning/corny, so find an arbitrary reason to pick a given team. Followed Tim Howard to the team in 2K14 on the heels of his fire-flames WC performance. The irony is rich now, believe me.

Your all-time favourite Everton player?: Tiny Tim Cahill

Your current favourite player?: Besic, Baines, or Lukaku

Pineapple on Pizza, Is it socially acceptable? What are your views?: Not only acceptable but encouraged. I'm from California, making New York pizza purists get their collective panties in a bunch is kind of our thing. Ham/CB and pineapple (often called "Hawaiian" here) is the sweet 'n' smoky taste sensation, what's not to like? As my friend once said upon deciding how to spend our just-won bar tab after prevailing in pub trivia: Hawaiian pizza is a "real party pizza."

Crossing my fingers for tomorrow to finally string together two wins.

Welcome mate, plenty of west coast supporters on here, but we're all blues chosen despite our location.
 

Welcome to the forum lid x

I'm curious though - how did you become an Evertonian on the back of:


Yet:


Also, POP is the devils food.

Maybe my vision is clouded by mixed feelings about Howard right now. He led me to the team and for that I am grateful. But right now, he frustrates me. Maybe if Howard were in the prime of his career right now I would probably say him. They say you don't know what you've got 'til its gone, and maybe when he retires/goes to MLS I'll re-evaluate who my favorite Blue ever is. Plus Cahill's attitude is infectious.

Sound matey.

Still though Cahill left us in in 2012 so how can he be your favourite player?
