Whether you made a New Year's Resolution to stop smoking, make more money, stop gambling, lose weight, gain weight, or (lord forbid) drink less you can all rest assured of one thing...it's been another fantastic year on what youv'e all turned into one of the greatest sites and best kept secrets of the boxing scene.

Straight from the heart and sincerely, I just wanted to thank you all for being a part of this wonderful thing wev'e got going here. Many of us don't know how fortunate we are to have what wev'e got here. If you don't believe me...branch out to some of the other forum's and see if you can put up with some of the bullshit that goes on here, there, and everywhere.

Before I get all misty eyed on ya's...I simply wanted to say thanks. Thanks for what a pleasure getting to know you all my brothers & sisters. I've loved every debate...sour or sweet and it's been my pleasure to listen, learn, speak, and inform.

s go out to all on the thread...and if your'e ratio doesn't go up a notch...well that just means I've already give you love and clicked yo' a** prior to the fact.

So now my friends...it's time I sent out some special calls to one and all...if your name aint below...it doesn't mean anything or than the fact that the older I get...the more abscent minded I get...either that...or we just haven't gotten that tight yet...but it's only a matter of time...so without further delay...Wacko got sumfin to say:

Much love and respect to one and all below, above, beyond, and between...

Saddo. What else can I say, bwoss, that I have not said many times before...and drunkenly so. Heh heh heh. I think that I speak for the vast majority of us when I say that this place is a haven for myself and my fellow forum goers. It makes me proud to devote so much time to this place and you done me an honor making me a moderator. It's nothing but a title...but it makes me an integral part of what I feel has become the greatest site and best kept secrets of the boxing scene. I realize that sounds like a stretch and that alot of you will feel like I'm browning the boss...but I got nothing more to gain than what I've got. Cheers bwoss. I'm proud of ya & what youv'e given us...it can only get better.

My fellow moderators. I want to applaude you all. Each of you. I aint naming names here...but your'e all good people & you all do the work that makes this place work...even though Missy refuses to squash her integrity & send out them nudy shots...Steelie too. Heh heh heh. Seriously...you fellars & fellarette's are the glue that keeps us sticky.

CutMeMick. What can I say babe. It's been real...there aint another soul on the board that get's me like you & has the same sick a** sense of humor that I do...now...I aint really sure that's such a great thing in your favor babe...but it's made for a lut of gut wrenching laughs between us & a lot of disgusting threads that have been sent straight to the adult board...but there aint a gotdam thingy dingy adult about them threads! Heh heh heh. Seriously bro, I wanna thank you for being a friend...because that is exactly what you have become...no matter how many miles of wire it takes to make it so...thanks for being a friend. Cheers.

El Gamo. From day one I knew I was gonna get on with you, babe. You my friend, are good people. Straight up, devoted to your fighters, & just fun to chat with...your'e right up there with ole' Mick & the bwoss. I've got a feeling if we lived near each other...age difference or not...we could hang. If nothing else...we could pick apart every theory in LOST & school each other on favorite movies. No blowin smoke up your a** or anything like that (because Mick would pay to see that. Heh heh heh), but I salute you my brother. Cheers.

Violent Demise. You can keep on crackin wise & tryin to be a hard a** all you want...but you aint got me fooled. You might come across as abrasive as sandpaper on a knob...but your'e my bwoy. Like it or not, babe. Youv'e grown on me like a bad fungus...& when your'e right...I'm stickin my neck out for ya...even if you try to chop it off during the process. Respect extended for believing in your opinions so devoutly & cheers for always making me laugh. You can write me down as the one you love to hate...but I'll issue you my thanks for being a friend & also for always furthering the debates. Cheers.

Oumafan. Here today & gone tommorrow for a few days & then back again...youv'e always been on of the top posters here & I've always dug on conversing with you about boxing, movies, & just general stuff. I hope you get back on a bit more often...because your'e good people too & this forum needs your input & more like you. Cheers.

Bilbo. In the start...you & I butted head like two goats...hell we still do from time to time...but oddly enough, youv'e turned out to be one of the more amusing posters on this site...& that's what does it for me. Humor & the knowledge to back up your opinions is a big thing here & I think that you my brother will do just fine...as long as you still let me make the "dil-hole" joke from time to time. Heh heh heh. Seriously, babe...you know Wacko luvs ya. Cheers.

Yoitsdan. It took us a little while...but we got on. What can I say dan? Your'e good people & your'e a good debator. You get a little shaken up from time to time...but don't we all. Youv'e picked up the slack for me when I was either sick or computerless on the DRBR a couple of times last year & for that I am thankful...but youv'e also panned out to be a good member & also a pretty good chum. Here's to the new year & us getting to know each other better. Cheers.

Superheavyrhun. Let me put it this way...you & I don't go rounds...we agree on a good many things & we seem to have a bit in common & honestly babe...I get a kick outta just hearin ya go. You seem like a good ole' chap & we got a brand new year to share drunken war stories.

JT Rock. Another new poster that grew on me after the first month. Devoted die hard Lacy fan...but had the courage to embrace Calzaghe's performance. 2007's going to be a great year & I'm curious to see how you fare with Lacy back on the scene...same with Calzaghe. As far as fighters & friends go...I gotta feeling that ole' JT's gonna be a goody. He's been good in the debates & he's a pretty decent gent to boot. Cheers JT.

TheDukeof74. I'll bet you your'e shocked that I put your name on the list right? You shouldn't be. Your'e good people too & I get a damned kick outta ya pretty much all the time...maybe it's because your'e so fwockin nuts over the Duke...but whatever it is...you get my vote as one of the staple members of the community & like I said...makin me laugh is a big part of it all. Cheers Duke...your'e a goodun! Heh heh heh.

Tito_BHB. One of the newer members (or maybe re-incarnated under a new name) I gotta say that your'e fast becoming one of my favorite new posters. Your'e always open to discussion & level headed & that's a big thing with me. Youv'e done the forum proud so far...keep up the good work. Cheers.

ICE COLD BOXING . Another new member that is growing on me...just stop posting so many gotdam video's from youtube, that S***'s gonna rot your brain babe. Heh heh heh. I haven't known you long enough to get all mushy on some of you newbie's...but some of you have surprised the ole' Wack. You'd be one of them ICB. Your'e a good kid & your'e learnin fast. You post with respect & that earns respect. Welcome to the forum & stick around 2007 can only get better.

Killersheep. A great contributor to the forum & a damn fine soul. The two of us don't get to converse much due to the fact that we both have a good bit of biz going on with our repeating threads (the sportsbook & the DRBR) but I've learned that when we do catch our breaths...a lot get's said & it's often good stuff. You do good work my man, keep it up. Cheers.

DaxxKahn. Now here's an interesting one. Daxx...often too overworked to get into the mix...he turned up the heat quite a few notches over the last 5 months or so...& now you can't get him to shut up. Honestly...you can't beat Daxx. Wealth of knowledge, good people, & as fwocked (married with kids) as I am...& what can I say...misery loves company...heh heh heh. Cheers Daxx...it's been a real pleasure gettin to know you...& now that 2006 is in the bag...just think...a whole other year to get started listening to me go on & on & on & on with this utter nonsense that I always try to pass off as fact or boxing knowledge. What was I saying? Heh heh heh. Seriously though, it's been a pleasure so far. Cheers my married brotha.

Amat. Another one of my favorite posters that just has too much other shat going on than spending every waking moment on the forum...not that there's anything wrong with that...but you should be ashamed. Heh heh heh. Amat, my friend, I have no qualms with stating the fact that you are one of the most underratted members on the board. Good in the thickest debates & equipped with a wealth of knowledge & means to get your point across. It's been a pleasure my friend.

Pacfan. Truely...a contradiction to the rule. Never thought that I would say this...but you are indeed one of the most open minded Pacquiao fans that I have ever met. You're as open to discussing & taking criticism regarding your man as you are singing his praised...& for that I applaude you. Your'e always good in a debate, your'e respectful, & your'e also knowledgeable on other fighters. It's been good getting to know you & it'll probably only get better in 2007. Cheers.

Taeth. Another new member. On point. Opinionated. Knowledgeable. Straight up. You my friend are fast becoming a credit to the forum...needless to say...your'e growin on me too. I'm eager to see what we can learn from each other through more & more endless debating. Cheers.

Smashup. What I wanna say about this chap...well...he wouldn't want me to broadcast that shat worldwide. Simply put...I wish you & I lived within 15 to 20 minutes drive from each other...because I'd be interested in seeing who could handle the most substance abuse. Heh heh heh. Cheers smash...love our chats babe & sooner or later (because neither of us is gettin in younger...or before we drink or waste ourselves comatose) we gotta get up & hang...then again...might be a bad idea. Hazordous to your health.

Lyle. Get the fwock outta here! Anyone that knows Lyle knows that Lyle is Lyle. He's one of the most opinionated, brash, & straight up posters here...& he also get's an asspot load of flack for doing so...but guess what...Lyle knows his S*** & Lyle's been here for quite sometime & you just can't beat him off with a stick. Lyle's good people too...even if you don't like what he's got to say...he's pretty much always on point. I respect that & I hope that 2007 is the year of the Lyle...as long as you agree with everything that I say Lyle...& we know that aint gonna happen...& that's what makes this joint work. Heh heh heh.

Miles. The Korean connection is without doubt one of the finest additions to the forum...miles is a good poster & a hell of a guy all the way around. From the beginning miles has been spot on with all his info & is a gent to one & all. You can't beat miles...period. Cheers miles...once again I pass on the statement...your'e good people.

The M.I.A.'s. Brad, BritKid, Tito-Fan, Mad D, Tansend, Snakey, Steelie, Mark TKO, & my ole' S.S.S.P. (starr) you are all missed...whatever the fwock you think is more important...let it go...your'e just fooling yourselfs. Come back home.

To the rest of you...newbies or oldies & oldies but goodies...if I didn't mention your name...take no offense...Wacko's got enough love to go round for ya's all...it's just tuff on the old bwoy to come across & sing your praises all at once...this thread's sticky & I will get to ya sooner or later.

If wev'e argued in the past...& we just can't get along...it's a new year...maybe that will change...maybe it won't...but wer'e all still under the same roof & like each other or not...you gotta be thankful that wev'e got a home like this one.

Again...I can't stress enough to those of you that I've grown tight with over the years here that this place wouldn't be what it is without you & I'm happy to call you my friends...if you read that...& felt it...then you know who you are.

Cheers bitches...& koneecheewah.

Sincerely,

Wacko
Alright lets get this over with. I don't know if it's just the new year feel or the fact that I ain't slept since Saturday. But Violent D is going to sell out for the moment and give props to his top 10 of 2006. There is no order to this list.

JT Rock: My ni**a. My fucking wing man when it comes to backing up Mayweather against the haters. He's on his own when it comes to Lacy. I give him credit for sticking with Lacy. Even though he's a lost cause

Killersheep: My carnal. That's all I need to say. Under no circumstances should this guy be bad mouthed

Wacko: Should be bad mouthed under every circumstances. As well as respected. I give him credit. He'll back me up when he agrees with me and he'll run his mouth when he disagress. Either way we homies and he knows it

Daxxkahn: For some reason I seem to have a hard time insulting Daxx. I don't know why. And some of are debates have gotten pretty heated. By all rights I should of degraded Daxx a long time ago. But for some reason I can't. I need to work on that in 07. I will tell you this much Daxx knows his boxing. I always respect his views.

CutMeMick: Mick's just a cool cat. He's actually PM me before to tell me to tone things down. Looking out for a G. He also took the Morales loss just as hard as I did. He's a local cat too. So he's familiar with my way of thinking.

El Gamo: I was actually surprise to find out he's only been into boxing for a short time. But damn is he into it now. His fight threads are always the first thing I check when I get on. He, Ice and Lords Gym (an outstanding poster) have done a great job with it.

TheBESTP4P: And I taught I was full of myself. Some times I wonder what the fuck he's doing here. He seems to talk more about bitches than boxing. But he recognizes game when he sees it. Probably cuz he has it. Can't knock him for having it. I'm pretty sure me and this cat will run into each other in 07.

Yoitsdan: I disliked this guy at first. Probably cuz we never agreed. But things changed when he did the Holyfield-Oquendo round by round. I found out he actually knew a little (I said little, no need to get carried away) about boxing. As oppose to nothing at all

P. G. Angel Eyes: I have no idea why she has so many sc's. She always makes good points

VanChilds: I always consider this guy Saddo's most underrated poster. He didn't post much, but made great sense when he did. Has not been on in awhile cuz if I remember correctly his ass currently in Afghanistan. Putting in work for his country.

That should do it.
