Hey guys, I'm not sure where introductions are supposed to go. So I figured I would start out here.

I've been visiting the site for a while now and decided I would try to start posting. It's a great site and think its great to see theres more of us out there haha

I'm a 20 year old college student and am very into sports. I am actually a student Equipment Manager for a Division I football team, which I love (and not just because of the eye candy haha). Partly because of my job I haven't come out to everyone, but I do plan on doing it eventually when I'm ready.

Well, just wanted to say a quick hello and hopefully will have some good discussions on here. Later guys

Welcome...unless the Div 1 team you work for has a skunkbear for a mascot, or a touchdown Jesus anywhere near the stadium, in which case you need to go back where you came from!

Come out at your own pace. You will know what feels right, DinkinFlicka44, and welcome to the board. In the meantime, care to share any of that eye candy? We LOVE pics around here...don't be shy to post pics! (By the way, if you guessed I'm a perv about twice your age, you WIN!)

Yeah or a powder blue bruin bear!

Welcome.

Welcome, newbies!

DinkinFlicka44, I noticed your member number is "101,808." Surely there aren't over a hundred thousand members on this board?!

Haha... thanks guys. I think I've passed all of those prerequisites for membership... not associated with any of those teams. Thanks for the welcome.

And no pics right now sorry! haha

Welcome aboard! I'm relatively new here as well. Only been around for about a month or so.

Come out when you feel it is right. It is your life after all.

Hello. I'm from Sheffield, England and like soccer, NFL football, cricket and rugby league. Due to ongoing injury problems, I haven't been able to play much recently (I used to be a decent goalkeeper and tight end) but yeah, that's basically me.

Anyway, I'm a fan of Sheffield United, Cincinnati Bengals, Lancashire CCC and Salford City Reds.

Just curious...how does a guy from Sheffield, England become a fan of the Bengals? I would easily understand the Cowboys or Patriots or Packers or Steelers. I'm not criticizing...just curious how you discovered the Bengals.

Not very unusual....I know a huge Bills fan from nearby Wakefield.....stuff just happens.

Hi! Ho! Wolverhampton!!!

Something about the ethos of the team, the thought that a struggling team would become good at some point.

Never really happened.

Well I can relate somewhat being a long-suffering Minnesota Vikings fan eevn though I've lived my whole life in New York. I guess it just surprises me that the NFL has become popular enough worldwide that someone in England would latch onto the Bengals...most folks in Cincinnati have bailed on them!

Anyway welcome to Outsports!

On Friday I saw a guy walking around center city Phila. with a t-shirt that said "Buffalo Bills Backer from Brandon, Florida."

Hey Dinkin:
Welcome aboard!

No one knows what my screen name means?? Damn... disappointing! haha
