The four pillars is self explanatory as a Ram fan but the broken one is emblematic of my imperfect attempt towards achieving that goal. It's probably the only positive I've taken away from the disaster that was our Spagz experiment. Alan is my name.

The four pillars:
faith in the innate goodness of my friends (not religious faith as I am an atheist)
character (self explanatory)
core values of integrity, honesty and respect for those on the same journey
team first versus self

I still feel like as a concept the 4 pillars can work, they just took the fall for Spags inability to properly evaluate talent.

Mike is usually gone from every site I want to deal with, so I just add a "y" and an important date in history...(This time I just used Ram)..My avatar is one of my grandchildren who is a very accomplished BMX racer...He is one of the 9 most important people in my life..Pretty boring on all counts now that I think about...

Not smart enough to create an avatar.
Moonshyne is a play on the stereotype of West Virginia fans, misspelled because the word "Moonshine" was already taken.
Became an instant Rams fan when Tavon and Stedman were drafted and haven't looked back. Previously a Bengals fan, I have been re-born. Get the ball to these two guys(and Gurley of course) and WE will make the playoffs.

Back in the old days, I believe it was ESPN that wouldn't allow you to use your first name as your username. So I took the "e" out of my first name and tossed 32 on the end.(random number)

And I found that I just kind of liked it. So I've continued to use it.

Avatar is Tavon. Decided to put this on to support Tavon when the bashing was at its worst and I wouldn't take it off until he broke out.(or proved the bashers right)

Been Rhino to my friends for more than 40 years. Roommate called me that due to being near sighted and it stuck. Bean came from rhino being taken as a screen name. Avatar is the Rhino from Marvel comics put there by Phoenix Ram, I believe. I like it and will keep it!

Faceplant was my screen name on a wakeboarding forum.....and describes how most of my runs ended. I have since taken up wake surfing. FAR less painful for my old self.

The avatar is a still of the following gif, which is a robot "faceplanting" while trying to make a save. which I wanted to post as my avatar.....but can't. Unless one of our fine mods would like to allow it!!

A friend of mine who I met at university lives in a town called Northampton and when I'd drive over to his house I'd always drive along a road called Lumertubs Lane and the name stuck in my mind.

The avatar is cus I'm an Iron Maiden fan. I originally chose Trooper Eddie cus he's carrying the British flag and I'm English. The current version with the Rams helmet is thanks to @CodeMonkey and is awesome

Initially I thought of going with my old forum name of CumberlandRam, because that's where I live, and is the screen name many still know me by from RRF and Rams Talk, but decided to go with something new instead.

Prime Time was the nickname of Deion Sanders, one of my favorite football players. The avatar is there because I couldn't think of anything else and is easy to see.

My screen name is pretty boring. 503 was the original and only area code in Oregon when I moved here. So I'm a Rams fan from the 503. I know.... fascinating - eh?

My avatar is a tribute to a good friend and fellow ROD member who passed away all too soon. RIP @Thordaddy. I still miss our talks and banter here on the site. The shirt I am wearing (in my brewpub BTW) in the avatar is from a club he started to help get Leukemia patients out walking and exercising in order to improve their overall health and mental well being. He started it with the help of a wonderful young lady named Lauren. The club was called Rich & Lauren's Half Fast Walking Club. Rich (Thordaddy) used to chuckle every time he said it because of the double entendre. But I know he was very proud of the club and its participants. It was Rich being Rich. We'll talk again some day my friend.

I have used the same screen name since the beginning of my computer life. Dodgers fan.
Initials are SRF.

My avatar is Ratfink. When I was a kid in the 70's, muscle cars were king. Ratfink made all kinds of hot rod stickers with over excaderated, colorful animation.
I still enjoy the nestalgic artwork

Have had my handle from back on the old yahoo Rams board. Only one I have ever used. I am a life long Rams fan and live in the Missouri Ozarks. My avatar is Strother Martin my favorite character actor.

I've been working at a prison in Chowchilla, Ca. the past 18 years. It was a women's prison up until 3 years ago when we converted to a men's prison. One of the many jobs I did there was working in a prison canteen where we sold inmates their goodies, chips, candy, sodas, etc. They also bought hygiene and other food items like canned goods. But the snack items were the most popular.

I once joked to them that I was like their snackdaddy. They thought it was hilarious and soon the women would call me snackdaddy as I walked through the yard to the canteen. And that was also around the time where I first started participating in forums. The Rams were the first forum I signed up with at RRF and the PD. I needed a screen name and snackdaddy popped in my head. Been using it ever since.

I don't work in canteens anymore. I've since promoted a few times and I'll finish my career was a Warehouse Manager. But those canteen days were good times for me and my co-workers. My good friend back then is now the head of our whole division and I work directly under him. Everyone under us says we make a good team as managers because we're always on the same page. Thats not always the case in other departments. We may have moved on, but we still reminisce how much fun we had in those canteen days.

Edit: Forgot to mention the avatar. Roman Gabriel was my first Rams hero and he will always be my favorite QB for nostalgic reasons. Previously I had a weenie dog. That was a tribute to my beloved "Herman". He was an escape artist and one day he got hit and killed. had a few dogs in my time but Herman was always my favorite. Had one heck of a personality.

I had those stickers plastered over everything when I was a kid. I think you and I talked about it before. Mod Rods were it back in the day. I wasn't much into baseball or football cards but those things were great.

I remember.
They were huge back then. Being a young boy, all you dream about is one day having your own car. Except for maybe Vicky Destelhorse, whom sits 2 seats over in class.
 
Avatar: Spent some time in south Texas and despite how polite everyone was for the most part.....I was amused at how many times I was denied alcohol because the establishment "only" accepted US id's. Too many actually thought Texas was the biggest state in the country. All Alaskans are aware of this Texas mindset and my avatar is one of the best selling Alaska t-shirts up here. If you cut Alaska in half, Texas would become the third biggest state.
