    We usually introduce ourselves by name then handle.

    The first time I went down there, I believe it was wekko, who asked me what my "handle" was.... I responded with, "are you asking me if I'm gay?"

    We laughed it off and I finally found out what my real "handle" was. :grin:

    Haha nice!

    Me: Hi, I'm John Smith.

    Stranger from online: Dude, what's your handle?

    Me: Nah man, I'm cool.

    Stranger from online: No man, what's your handle? From Clutchfans?

    Me: Sorry man, I'm at the wrong place. Later!

    Later on that evening:

    Wife: So how did it go?

    Me: I dunno, it was like a gay party or something. I'm not gonna post on clutchfans anymore and pretend it never happened.

    I always introduced myself by name and mentioned my username to those that actually post online (often times people brings friends or relatives that don't even care what CF is). For the most part I would think and refer to people by their real names, though. Just felt weird do to anything else.

    Aww man, I miss CF pickup basketball! I've touched a basketball not even 10 times over the last 2 years, & I've done little physical activity lately as been dealing with shin & knee pain for almost the past month. Found out this week I have tendonitis and some syndrome affecting the cartilage in my knee because I was dumb and didn't transition into distance running. :( Started physical therapy this week, buuuut I could try to swing by and shoot a little, may not be able to play in any games. Not confirming my presence so don't rookify me :)

    & Flash21, I'm not involved with the Rockets organization at the moment beyond the Rowdies. Did an internship a year ago, but just a fan for right now.

    My bad. I figured they made you a full fledged analitic specialist by the time you finished your internship.

    Regardless, come thru. I'll set you up for some set 3s just like the good ole days if you end up playing one game. Yeah I'm kidding myself I'm not really THAT good.

    :grin:
