Papa Shaq started a great thread a few weeks ago regarding the diversity that exist on this board. I am curious to see what type of diversity exist on the board as it relates to the different sports/positions/teams that individuals played for, at either the college or professional level. I figured this could create some good dialog and therefore, could be a good networking exercise.

I will kick it off.

Position: Shooting Guard

If somebody on here posted that they were on the 2001 Miami football team, would you believe them?

Anyway I was at Miami from 1992-1996 but never played any sports in college.

Wow. I didn't expect the poster directly after me to claim they were on the 2001 Canes.

I'm sorry but I don't believe you. In fact I suspect that I gave you ideas on your post by wondering aloud if somebody would claim to be on the 01 Canes.

little redundant to say "Yale player" AND "protective eye wear"
