I think all these posts discussing Vlad the Misunderstood should be moved to a new, dedicated thread. Don't want to give newbys trying to introduce themselves the wrong idea.

Actually, twice... by two different posters:
Me: "To be fair to Vlad..."
Ferrari: "Well, in fairness to the much maligned Vlad..."
Aren't you getting the sense that the Bootboard collective thinks Vlad the Impaler got a bad rap? I mean, at least he's not a USC grad.

Just read up on the ancient practice of impaling and truly wish I hadn't. No need to be fair to Vlad!

Hello Everybody! I've been lurking the forum for a while and finally got on thanks to our Admin's efforts to fix registration. My dad raised me as a lifelong Stanford fan and I was born shortly after he started working at Stanford around 1997.

Welcome son. I too was a Stanford fan out of the womb. LOL

Hi everyone,
I'm David, BA '94/MBA '00. From Minneapolis originally, in the Bay Area for most of my adulthood and now live in Wilmette, just north of Chicago. Was a long time men's basketball season ticket holder, though that lapsed with the combination of moving to Chicago and the Dawkins era. Now I'm mostly focused on football but hoping for a basketball revival if we can hire the right coach.
Favorite moments as a fan:
- 1990 Big Game (my first/revenge of The Play)
- 1998 Elite Eight
- 2011 Orange Bowl
- 2016 Rose Bowl
- Any time we beat Notre Dame football -- especially now that I'm back in the Midwest and surrounded by Domers

Hi friends!
My name is Gus, BS '16. Big big football fan, although that started in high school - trying to get more into basketball especially now that [redacted] is out. I've been lurking for a while and recently decided it would be fun to actually participate in conversations!
