Hey Pride,

I will admit I have been a shadow figure on these boards (not that anyone noticed or that I am some sort of prominent figure - but still) after the season ended (still feel weird about the Super Bowl, happy the pats lost but it just felt meh) and have just been lurking around and reading posts here and there. I figured I'd toss up a post to see how everyone is doing and what everyone is up to now that our Lions are hard at work training for next year.

For me, it is unofficially a year since I have been at my "big boy" job, I am a Junior Security Engineer at a Cyber-Security firm, and I started March 7th, 2011 as an intern and got full hired May 16th 2011, so for me it's been a year by intern standards, otherwise I have 3 months to go for an actual "year".

Other than that, I am also watching NCAA hoops and watching my Virginia Commonwealth Rams rock the house, auto-bid this year! Love that college ball! These months between football leave a void for us, well for me at least, and I cannot wait till the season starts again, but I am doing what I can to keep occupied. How about you Pride? what are you guys up to?
