Sy'56 appreciation thread.

Keith : 4/23/2018 10:32 am
The amount of time and effort that this guy puts in is amazing. The detail and accuracy of his reports is equally amazing. I am sure that I am not alone, but thank you so much for all the work. As someone who doesn't watch a ton of college football, I rely on these reviews from people like yourself and there is no doubt that you are one of the best around. You are a massive asset to bbi.
Thanks

This is my favorite time of year on BBI, and your contributions are by far the highlight of it all.

Can't wait for your mock draft!!! Hope you get this years first rounder right as well, I was totally on board with Engram last year, and think he's a great weapon for the future. Keep up the great work Sy'!!!

Thank you everyone  
Sy'56 : 4/23/2018 2:32 pm : link
for the kind words. A post like this is far from necessary but I do appreciate everything. You guys are a pleasure to work for.

As I have said several times in the past and I am sure I will say it several times in the future....I do not value my opinion as any better or worse than anyone. That includes everyone here and everyone out there. This used to be a side passion of mine, then it evolved in to a side hustle, and it has now turned in to a part time career that gets better every year. It has been a fun ride and I do enjoy it a lot

Moving forward, I don't think this is something I will ever leave my full time career/business for, but I have had thoughts about creating something a little more sophisticated in time when I have the time to do it. Maybe 2019? We will see. I don't know much about website building and generating revenue to a credible amount to justify the amount of time it takes/would take. But as long as Eric allows, I will always help generate some discussion here. it is a tough crowd, but in a good way!

Might have one more pos up pre-draft with what I think will happen this weekend.
Thanks, Sy  
JohnG in Albany : 4/23/2018 2:37 pm : link

Traded along with our #2 to Buffalo for 2 starters from a pool of 5 to be selected after the draft, plus their entire '18 draft, plus their first 3 rounds of the '19,'20, and '21 drafts.
They felt Sy '56 was more valuable than the #2.
DG said he hated to do it but said it would make the Giants top tier SB contenders for the next 10 years.
He would also re-signing Sy, regardless of cost ,after the '21 season.

So professional, Sy. Greatly appreciated.

I know I have often thought of myself as a masochist for being a Giants fan.

I guess for all of your work for the site you may be one too.
