How you found the site: I was in my Poli 300 class and before class I was wanting to find out more about the 2006 draft. I came to this site several times before signing up as a member of the forum. When I finally did sign up I contributed small pieces here and there concentrating more on quality of posts than quantity. Since then I have been moved up from forum regular to team leader to mod.

Name: CJ Schneider

Age: 36

Hometown: Bossier City, Louisiana

Favorite Sports Team(s): New Orleans Saints San Fransisco 49ers

School/Occupation:Northwestern State University (2001) / Teacher

Life Story: I was born and raised in a small town in northern California. I grew up for the most part on my grandfather's pear and walnut ranch. After graduation from HS, I enlisted in the US Army. It was this that led me to Ft. Polk, Louisiana where I met my wife. After 4 years I decided to go to college with the intent of becoming an officer. An injury to my back dashed those hopes. I fell back on my degree as a teacher. For the last nine years, I have been teaching middle school in Shreveport, Louisiana. I have three children, two girls one boy, ages 12 to 5.

How you found the site: About 3 years ago, while looking for draft websites, this became one that grabbed my attention the most. I eventually began not only reading Scott's commentary but visiting the forums and the rest is, as they say, history.

Name: Zach Arms
Age: 21
Hometown: Richlands, VA
Living In: Abingdon, VA
Favorite Sports Team(s): Saints, Donte' Stallworth, Mike Karney, Kirk Morrison, Rays, Allen Iverson
School/Occupation: I work at a food store and go to the community college here.
Life Story: Youngest of 3. Started playing football when I was 4, and played every year til I was 20. Hold my high schools bench press and deadlift records, while only weighing 210 pounds. Got offers for the past three years to play college ball at D2 schools and lower but can never get the money the school/goverment can't pay for. Played every position but QB on offense, DL and LB on defense, long snapped, and all special teams. My junior year I led our team in KR yards. Very religious, and still growing in my faith. I love to read.
How I became a Saints fan: Donte' Stallworth. I loved the name and I thought black jerseys were bad-a, so I became a fan and never looked back.
