Shout out to gidiefor

Sy'56 : 8/16/2017 9:36 am
Guys...once again I am very thankful for the opportunity to do more work for Eric and the BBI crew. It was a good experience for me and what I am trying to do in the future.

But gidiefor deserves a ton of credit. He has been the aggressor throughout the process since the podcasts and I'm not sure everyone knows how much time he committed to this. He lives well over an hour from the stadium and stayed for about 2-3 hours after I left to do the video uploading and editing, making this a 9-5 gig on some days. He did a TON of work and I hope you are all aware of that.

So thank you gidie.

Go Blue.
Thanks to both of you

Outstanding training camp coverage. You guys are the best.
Thank you Sy and Gidie - Reports were AWESOME

and that's an understatement

Only things that would have made it better...
1) Albany
2) The BBI Trophy

It was a pleasure to work with someone as bright and professional as you together with the Giants' staff. I learned a ton doing it and had a real blast. I am looking forward to continuing the journey with you.
A huge thanks/shout-out to both of you

Yeoman's work, fellas. Very well done and it's obvious it was a labor of love.

I didn't post on the Training Camp threads every day, but I sure as hell soaked in every bit of the videos, interviews and posts daily. You guys really spoiled us and again, thanks for your hard work.

Can't wait to see what you guys have up your sleeves for the future!

Great job you two. Your videos and reports blow away any other source available to us.

Sy, if you're not working for an NFL team in the next few years, you should be!

Thanks again guys!
Thank you

Sy and Gidie, for putting in the time and effort.

I love football and I especially love NY Giant football.

Your contributions help me get more enjoyment out of something I love. It actually improves my quality of life! How about that?

Thanks so much, sincerely.
Yep Gidie

Sy and Gidie this privately, but I really like the chemistry between the two on the videos. Gidie is a very good set-up man for Sy. It seems very natural. And the interviews are really good.
Thanks  
sin : 8/16/2017 10:51 am : link
to the both of you. These were better than most of the professional ones that were done, and it just goes to show that BBI is def on par with other publications that were are out there. Keep up the good work!
You both

Did an excellent job and should be proud.
The mods have done a great job trimming the fat the past week.  
BrettNYG10 : 8/16/2017 10:55 am : link
Board is much improved. Only loss I'm upset about is EliteMob. But he'll be back.
You guys did a fantastic job  
jcn56 : 8/16/2017 10:57 am : link
Almost like being there at camp, just without as much body odor.
You guys are great, and I thoroughly appreciate  
Beezer : 8/16/2017 11:01 am : link
all your sweat and effort. I'm envious of the blast you're undoubtedly having, but it IS work, so again, thanks very much. Your involvement makes the pre-season so much better.
thank you

Doesn't surprise me

gidie has been a BBI legend since those original 'yippie, yaHOO!!!!!!!!' posts. (And keep 'em coming, gidie.)

And Sy, your input has always been completely invaluable.

Thanks to BOTH of you guys.

I wasn't entirely joking when I suggested that ESPN might look to snag Sy. He and Mike's work together is better than a lot of what I've seen from network sports.

Much thanks to both gentlemen for making this off-season much more informative and entertaining!
Let's make this thread a multi-multi-pager  
CT Charlie : 8/16/2017 12:12 pm : link
You guys deserve the accolades, not the least because of your modesty. By the way, many of us understand how much work goes into a "simple" video editing job, but I'm glad Sy took the time to point out how much behind-the-scenes time Gidie invested. And when I think how much time you invest, Sy, not only with your draft reports and daily write-ups -- and all the traveling and film watching -- it is a truly herculean effort, and every last BBI fan is lucky. And, I trust, grateful.
I wished to also say thanks to Gidiefor and BrettNYG10  
Elite Mobster #32 : 8/16/2017 12:15 pm : link
BrettNYG10 has always been a GREAT Man

Gidiefor and I have had great discussions and If I may, I would like to say Gidiefor is Solomon like from the Bible !
Appreciate BOTH you guys  
Pete from Woodstock : 8/16/2017 12:40 pm : link
and everything you did for us on BBI!
Couldn't agree more!

Much appreciated

gidiefor started out as a "normal" BBI poster for years. Then about a year and a half ago, he suddenly began to start new threads during a slow time with a bunch of intriguing Giants topics, almost day after day.

The rest they say, is history.

The channel link is attached here. You should have quick links to them so people can subscribe and easily find your stuff. You might also want to put a user photo, so people can identify the real brand.
