Around SBN: Why Hockey Fans Should Root For Devils Vs. Kings

An Ode to Blackbeard and RdrPwr by Haboob

I've only been a DTN member for a couple of weeks but this site rocks, due in large part to awesome dudes like Blackbeard and RdrPwr. It's guys like them that make these sites work.

What can you say about Blackbeard? The guy is funny as shit and knows his stuff. I could've sworn he was a lawyer the way he debated the Glasgow contract issues. I can't wait to log on to DTN first thing in the morning to see what new gems Blackbeard has posted. I swear, his posts give me goosebumps. That may not sound cool for a dude to say about another dude but it's true. I aspire to Blackbeard greatness!

RdrPwr is funny as shit too. I love his intelligent humor. He always makes me think. I come away smarter after reading his posts. At night when I imagine him sitting at his computer writing his posts, I get a picture of a redneck guy (probably really good-looking) in his skivvies (boxer briefs I bet) pondering all of these issues. I can see him carefully considering all sides of an issue before imparting his wisdom, most of the time with a sense of humor but always educating us. How cool is that?

Man, these guys are what get me up in the morning and keep me coming back for more. I bet most of you agree with me. Wanted to start off the new year showing appreciation for two great men.

Happy New Year!

Haboob

P.S. Word on the street is they both have strong opinions about tacos...

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of Double-T Nation's writers or editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of Double-T Nation's writers or editors.

Blackbeard is a down to earth guy

He usually has ingengous things to say or add to any conversation. Sometimes he does surprise with something that is not really Blackbeard-like, but that is very rare. Rdrpwr goes both ways, you know….;). Sometimes he is really in-depth. Other times he is totally obnoxous. However, overall, they both add to DTN making it a worthwhile place to find out all things Texas Tech. I know I enjoy their input, as well as many others. This is just a great place to hang out. Too bad Seth does not stand behind a bar and hand out Samual Adams’ to all of us Red Raiders. Now that would really be nice.

Hell me too, I don't think I know this RdrPwr he speaks of.

I know that when I write stuff on DTN I’m usually sitting in my office in front of a Tech flag wearing pressed pants and a dress shirt of some sort. Anyone who can post stuff in only their skivvies is cool by me!

So maybe it's best you don't remember?

I don’t hit on younger men. They hit on me. I don’t get it. I guess they all want their “older woman” experience or something. Who knows, I admit ignorance when it comes to men.

Or maybe it’s because I look SO much younger than my age and am SO irresistible they just can’t help themselves…yeah, that must be it…at least that’s the story I’m going to stick with!

Good work yourself, Haboob

You’re making a contribution right away, and in the classy (and entertaining) DTN way. Therefore, I’ll honor you with your own DTN limerick:

“This new poster who’s named Haboob,
with the name that rhymes with the word ‘boob’,
he jumped into the game,
and is making his name,
him-not a conventional “noob!”

For some reason, I got into writing limericks for most of my family this Christmas. I kept them positive—and clean (that’s hard to do with classic limericks, as they can get kinda raunchy).

Wearing my heart on my sleeve

There once was a man named blackbeard,
His whimsical repartee made him universally revered,
Only one could match his penetrating wit, RdrPwr,
His sparkling banter made lesser men cower,
Along came a regular Joe named haboob,
Who in the presence of these giants felt like a rube,
He is tickled they aren’t running away in fear,
As his desire is to draw them near…

You need something a little stronger to wash tacos down

But you have to watch out if you pick tequila. It can get too weird.

You can say shit...especially in the same sentence as RP...

This is not name calling for the record. I’m simply stating that it’s legal to say shit on DTN and it’s completely reasonable to use the word in sentences including RP….

That's right

“RP’s not fun (like the flu), but rdpwr is” (from the DTN primer). Haboob, you’re getting some great schooling from a whole lot of whacky and funny people this week. Be sure to study this thread carefully each day, and you will be initiated into the secrets of the DTN realm!

Clever but no!

I just picked that name because there have been so many comments about that word since it has “boob” in it!

I was so surprised you guys didn’t get freaked out sooner by the creepy stalking posts!! And I thought for sure all the taco references would be a dead giveaway. That’s when I decided to try the “how many seats would we need” because I didn’t think I could take it any longer!!

Thanks for being good sports!

I couldn’t believe more people weren’t creeped out!! I kept emailing KWash asking what was up…we just decided to let it play out & see what happened.

I have a couple of guy friends I asked for advice on what would freak guys out & they assured me my posts would do the trick. But everyone kept acting so normal… Even after all the taco references!!

And thank you TTU ’04, I thought we all deserved a little fun & I knew everyone here has a pretty good sense of humor!

If you're going there

Then we need to remember the famous East German skater – Katarina ‘Haboob’ Witt. She’s much older here but still has her, um… …..talents. I would enjoy a taco dinner with her any time, even if she does talk a little funny. At least I’d know she wasn’t stalking me.

people can say all day that they watch figure skating for the art,

and sure, there’s “art” involved, with choreography and wut have you, but yah, you’ve got it about right, mbrown. same thing with gymnastics in the summer olympics. of course, it’s probably better that as i age i should keep my thoughts to myself about such things without fail

of Katarina Witt in a red skating dress that was pretty saucy back in those days.

I had my wife read your post and asked her opinion...

Her response: “Why do you spend so much time on that site? Don’t you kind of worry about interacting with people like that?”

That was her exact quote. It was priceless…it’s even more priceless now!!

That made me laugh out loud! I now have Snapple Diet Peach Tea down the front of my shirt!

Not knowing your wife, I would still be wiling to bet if you tell her the rest of the story, her comment would be the same!

Not at all...

She laughs a ton at some of the back and forth on here. One of our marital agreements is that she had to become a Red Raider fan since both of her parents are Aggies and she went to undergrad in Connecticut. She’s now a diehard Raider fan. Overall she enjoys Tech football but this is literally the first post that kind of freaked her out. Good stuff.

by TTU '04 on Jan 3, 2012 3:33 PM CST up reply actions  

No,

I just meant that she would probably think, “why would someone spend their time doing that?”

when I first read the original post, my ego made me be flattered. I remembered Haboob commenting on the thread about Glascow. I had made a comment about the ethics of hiring/firing and "haboob’ made a comment about me being a lawyer.

so, I’m thinking, ok this is a new young kid and he likes the way I think and post…………..then f*%k me buckwheat, all this other goes down. Well played Austin, well played. Hat tip.
