I've been reading this blog for a while, but have been reluctant to post since it seems like a very "inside" group. Anyways, if there is anything I should know, please let me know.

I go to the University of Oregon, but I grew up in the bay area, so if you want to take any shots at Oregon, feel free but I will defend full-heartedly.

Thanks, and go Ducks, Giants, 49ers, Warriors, and Sharks!

Welcome….I think as long as you are a Niners fan and love to talk about them you will fit right in. One thing, be wary of the sarcasm, from my experience sarcasm is a popular trait around these parts haha

sarcasm

It is definitely becoming popular here, but unfortunately it sometimes gets lost in the translation of typing.

It is inside in the sense that many of the commenters have been readers since the early days of early 2007, but we have been getting more and more new folks, which is certainly a plus.

Speaking of Oregon, have you checked out the SB Nation Oregon blog? It’s called Addicted to Quack (http://www.addictedtoquack.com). Check it out if you get a chance.

I’m subscribed there, thanks.

Autzen was the first stadium to start calling black people "African Americans", ... instead of colored people. A true trailblazer.

I think there was a glitch in the Matrix…

Also, welcome here as well!

And in other news, since many of us also lead double lives at McCoveyChronicles, I’d say that your life as KingofDucks hasn’t gotten off to a particularly strong start. I won’t give you any trouble or anything over here (if you don’t give me reason to)… but your credibility is a little shot.

That’s why I’m not going to give you any trouble (outside of what I’ve done already). Outside of my initial, rightfully confused reaction, I’m very happy to give the benefit of the doubt, and I’m on my way to check out your response right now.
