Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

ERIC HANNA



I joined BCB apparently in the post-ERIC HANNA era. So, up to this point, I have no idea who this legendary poster is. I have heard many, many, many references to his name. This has made me feel somewhat lost as to what you guys may be talking about.

Star-divide

Which leads me to this simple request. Tell me about him. Who was he? What was he like? Why was he so famous around here? Why deosn't he post anymore? Enlighten me with all that I need to know about him. Thanks.

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of SB Nation or Al Yellon, managing editor (unless it's a FanPost posted by Al). FanPost opinions are valued expressions of opinion by passionate and knowledgeable baseball fans.

fonzi soriano?

Cubs should trade fonzi soriano and kosuke for halliday. The cubsa should just give up on the outfield for this season and rely on the likes of reed johnson milton bradley and hoffpaur and possibly trade minor leaguers for another outfielder. Defense wins championships and the sorianos defense is suspect. The cubs would have zambrano lilly halliday and dempster. No one can compete with our pitching. Our infielders our good enough offensivly to get the job done. If we dont do this trade the phillies or cards are gonna trade for halliday. This is a once in a life time oppurtunity ot get a cy young candidate. PLEASE DO THIS CUBBIES!!!!

Are you high? Seriously. Put the bong down and step away from the keyboard before you hurt yourself by trying to eat it.

The Cubs have ZERO AAA prospects of note. Well, maybe 1/2 of one if you count Jake Fox, and the Marlins don’t need him. Any trade for Ramirez, Halliday, etc. would require something like Marshall, Vitters, Cashner, and Castro. As in ALL FOUR OF THEM.

Yeah.

Be sure to include this one in that group. It’s my favorite BCB thread, and one of the greatest baseball discussions of all time.

I was around here when that one happened, and yet I missed that one too. In my defense, however, I was still a relatively new poster here, and I only really began commenting more often in April of this year.

Completely impossible. When I came out of my Dark Age in April, he was BLou, and, at least for a while, I could carry on a conversation with him.

Kind of a question about this one.

I wasn’t a regular poster when this one happened. Could someone who participated in that one please tell me what some of the red Xs and inactive graphics were?

Sadly, a lot of the pictures in that one taken from Photobucket are now Inactive graphics. I remember some of them, but not all. I know the picture that appeared as “Shornography,” but I never saw any of the other pictures marked with red Xs.

A primal energy.

Eric was emotion.

He was thunder and lightning, oh yeahhhh ..

His posts about his mother remind me of what I went through with my grandfather. He and I were very close, and my grandfather died at the end of May.

Like cubnational’s mother, my grandfather was a lifelong Cubs fan.

i hate those letters (ICU)

my mother spent a week in one before passing. by the time i made it to the ER (less than 20 minutes) she had a stroke and never woke so I didnt get to say anything to her while she was coherent. I am truly happy that you are able to communicate with your mother and I hope she pulls thru with a quality of life that allows her to still enjoy her daiyl routine

The Eric Hanna thread was tame

Compared to the nut case posting long literary bits in German and whole acts of Shakespeare plays because Al would not delete his account. It was not enough for him to just not post , he went WAY off the deep end one day. By far the strangest day in Al’s blog history ( it may have been on the old And Another Thing blog).

Groundhog Day is even sooner.

We live in Woodstock where the movie with Bill Murray was filmed so we celebrate it pretty big time here. I can’t wait. Got my Groundhog decorations out and I’m ready to party. Oh and I have a delicious recipe for groundhog cookies direct from Punxsutawney if anyone wants it….no they aren’t made of groundhog…they are cut out cookies shaped like groundhogs. They taste sort of like gingerbread. They are best when placed on top of vanilla ice cream (to represent snow) with a drizzle of chocolate syrup (as a shadow).

Ha! You'll never see me "hawking" in McCovey Cove

I would sink to the bottom so fast, it wouldn’t be funny. Absolutely no buoyancy in this body. I’d have to stay on the walkway outside the RF wall and hope for really high long home runs with the wind blowing in.

Or buy a ticket and go in.

What I think...

I’m detecting a pattern (I do hope) of an individual with a well honed sense of humor who parodies types like ERIC HANNAH and others. From time to time he comes on to BCB, drops his bomb, if you will, then sits back and waits for the predictable reaction.

I could be wrong but what fun would that be? If so, all hail ERIC HANNAH in all his incarnations! Bring it ON.
