Yes, I'm on it...

I love playing and following most sports. I grew up playing soccer (football) until I was about 15, played baseball, basketball, ice hockey etc. I follow all of the Pittsburgh sports teams including the University of Pittsburgh, where I graduated.

I've also refereed basketball games at the youth level. Thoroughly enjoy kids right before they start getting an attitude. (y)

I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA but now live in Portland, ME so excuse me if I don't think the big freeze from last week was a big deal. We got about a foot of snow today.

I've always admired how Everton runs their operation. I've followed MLS since its inception and the US National Team since I can remember. But I really only started following the European leagues in 2006. I'm drawn to management who can get the most out of the least, and was a huge fan of Steve Coppell until he left Reading.

I followed Everton from a distance while I was following Reading, and it's no surprise I was interested in both as they were oftentimes after the same players (with Everton usually winning out).

This is the first football forum I've joined, I post on ice hockey forums and a Pitt athletics board, but I just never found a place where there was level-headed discussion about football. I lurked for a while and believe I've found that place!
 
Welcome along mate, I know what you mean about us whinging about the big freeze, I was in Chicago airport recently & the outside temperature was -10°C, couldn't believe it
 

OK, that's a record - 6 posts and no-one's asked you the pineapple / pizza qualifying question.

Well......................?? What's your position.
 
Pineapple on pizza?

It's something your girlfriend or wife gets you to try, and when you do you think it's ok, but you're not really sure how you feel about yourself.

I'm of the opinion that if the topping doesn't leave your pizza soggy with grease, it shouldn't be on there. Meat all the way.
 

In my 12 years of supporting Everton, I don't ever think I've seen the word "Everton" and the word "bandwagon" in the same sentence.

I'm all for a bandwagon now. If anything, that our American brethren see that there is quality outside the Big Three in England.

Remember this:


Evertonians are born, not manufactured.
We do not choose, we are chosen.
Those who understand, need no explanation.
Those who don't, don't matter.

Just another day in January here, mate.

Come back in the summer - 75-80 degrees F, gentle summer breeze, everyone about outside, and my favorite thing about summer - sun dresses. You'll have a proper time.
