View Full Version : Wildcat says Goodbye!!

Hi Everyone,
After 7 and 1/2 years with McFarlane Toys, I am moving on to a new position with another company next week. I am going to miss a lot of things even though I am very excited about moving on. Some of you might just know me as the Promotions Director who sets up the stadium giveaways and spawn.com contests etc. but some of you, the geriatric board members (in loyalty only) might remember when I was the first moderator of this board. Way back in 2000, this board launched and myself and Beau Smith (a legend now in the comic writing biz.) answered your questions and chatted with you about essentially three lines of sports figures. Yawn, right? Well, things were spicy back then because many of you were still diehard Starting Lineup fans! But, I remember it all fondly, and actually loved that part of my job. I had another short stint as moderator before Mark Weber came on board.
Anyway, I plan to stop in and say hi---hopefully my Wildcat name is still available :) Thanks for always being great to this sports girl. Best of luck to everyone, especially those from way back.
---Rachel

Good luck Rachel. I'm still around even though I don't have my BOXMAN43 name anymore. Seems like it was only yesterday, can't believe it was 2000-2001.:(

Has it been 7 1/2 years. Geez, as you get older, time goes way too fast... Anyway, it's always nice to hear about good people moving on to bigger and better things. Best of luck at your new job... Andy Matz

Watch it there, chicky!
I'm not THAT old, and I haven't bought a Sportspick in years (except for that Sepia Orr), so no loyalty here.
You were a great mod back in "the day", an I'm sure you were responsible for getting Secret Squirrel to engage us on the boards more than once.
Good Luck!

Very sorry to see you go, Rachel, but good luck with the new company- I'm sure they'll love you like we do.
A personal thanks for hooking me up in Detroit- hopefully Mark passed on my thanks at the time.
I just got home today from hip replacement surgery- how's your rehab going?

BTW, one thing we won't miss is pics of Mark in your clothes when he loses the ASU/AU battles.

Good luck and good fortune.
Hey wait a second! How about sending all your cubicle stuff (SPs, stapler, etc.) my way after you clear out your space? Just stick 'em all in a box. I'll find a use for them.
Have fun in your new job. We'll look for a new Wildcat soon.

*In best Jack Sparrow Voice* Rachel, it would never have worked out between us darling. Be brave. :D
Seriously, good luck. It was nice meeting you at Fan Fest in Houston!
BTW, say it with me:
Villanova Wildcats are the ONLY TRUE Wildcats!:p
