Duffy Is Leaving Us

47 posts in this topic

I saw in the LFW this morning after the Jets game Duffys leaving us. You new fans may not know this but hes been a important part of this board as well as others. I just wanted to let him know he will be missed an that just because he doesnt cover the Ravens anymore we all still have much respect and love for you. Good luck with your new job and try to visit when possible.

He'll be missed

I still remember him getting grilled at the fake interview at the combine, he was almost sweating, got a right hard time
Eric DeCosta is one intimidating man

He said on his twitter that he got a job at fender in cali so while i dont feel sorry for him one bit lol.. I will definitely miss him. Great writer and was really instrumental in establishing br.com and the forum as the best in the biz....

Here's to franny taking his spot! Ha

So im kinda confused. What's Fender? The guitar company? And why would that be a step up from his current job? I must be wrong.

lol its only the most well known guitar comapny in the world and idk what his position will be obviously but i would venture to say its prolly a "step up"

you think Fender, I have always been more of a Gibson guy, more expensive but I like their pickups better, I did like the SRV texas Overwound coils on the SRV Strat's but never have been impressed by anything else.

We should get DJ Qualls to replace him, then it'll be like we never skipped a beat. (I added the soul patch on DJ for better visual representation).

Duffy had a Fauxhawk pic up at some point on Twitter that looked a heck of a lot like Bruno. I hope he does well in his next stop.

Duff was cool the first time I met him. He and Sarah were the first people I met from the team website.

I'll miss the dude. We'll always have Twitter, though. And memories of his hair. (Bring the faux-hawk back!)

Duff, I guess we should have put a franchise tag on you, lol!

Nonetheless, I have enjoyed your bevy of work on this website, but then hey... what else would I expect from a fellow Tarheel? You did not disappoint, and your absence will surely be missed by the Raven Nation. Best wishes on your future endeavors. I know you will continue to be a great Raven ambassador no matter how far you roam. Keep wearing the purple and black and don't forget where ya home is, lol.
Thanks, it has been a great ride! [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/minioiseau1.gif[/img]
Sincerely, Grapple Raven

Man, you guys are the best. I'll have a longer farewell before I leave after the Jets game, but I really appreciate all the kind words. It's been a tremendous ride, and I've had a honor of working with Sarah, Ryan and the Digital Media team that helped grow this site from when I first got here in 2006. I'll be repping purple hard in Cali, don't you worry.

- duff

p.s. - I'd like to see that faux-hawk pic of myself. I don't think I've ever rocked one of those. Always shaggy and soul-patch for this tall drink of water.

I've read Duffy's reports from the main page everyday, 7 days a week and 4-5 times a day. His writing is so familiar in my brain. It's a big loss for us, and we fans will miss you.....[img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/sad.png[/img]

Good luck with your next journey......


PS: Keep in touch with our Ravens fans when you're settled in CA........

Ah Duffy, he hosted the weekly video mailbag once in a hall wearing a martial arts suit and holding nunchucks.

For most people it would look ridiculous but he pulled it off no problem, a true pro

That's sad though he looks downright stressed out. Maybe that's just his normal look, but he had bags under bags next to his eyes. I will without a doubt miss him. Seemed like a pretty cool guy.
