[Norm Landrover]

Haha, I don't even know what you thought you were replying to. Ignore me if you already answered it in your post, but why North Melbourne?

I mostly support teams in smaller markets in sport general. North, a team who to my knowledge at the team had small membership, a potential threat to be moved, and talented teams in the 90s fresh out of the decade (though I began five years removed from the 99 banner). Gave me a reason to be proud of a team. Also, I am going to university (now grad school) for sport management and athletic administration. A team like North Melbourne especially since Brad Scott's arrival gave me reason to try and figure out what player we should keep and remove then who to replace them with as well as figuring out what we're good at and how to fix what we aren't good at. Then you look at the rest of the league. So I start and look for how to create a super-club based on the present (and somewhat the past). Not to sound kind of snobbish, but whether it happens or not I am usually right about such decisions 90-95% of the time. That is because I'm not being paid, nor am i under pressure of fans and ownership. Following sports like footy and leagues like the AFL (which I find both fascinating) as more opportunities to find work over my American colleagues.

Just to clarify, GOAT means Greatest Of All Time. The Finnish Flash is the GOAT.

So it is, thought so but wasn't sure/didn't want to say anything . . . Haven't heard it in a long time - the term got lost here from my vocabulary earlier last decade.

 

[Greater Gattsby]

Why?

I think the whole Kim Jong-Un thing mixed with yourself as your favourite poster on the board.

Oh and the JB BABY.

Just a guess...
