Inspired by the top 50 according to Homer Hulk...

I wanted to give ya'll my TOP 5 EFers of my EF career.
These fellas may not be EF house hold names but these gentlemen are what mad me the EFer I am today.

1. Chet Haptonstall
I met Chet in 2000... I had recently found my childhood N.O. Saints team in a plastic bag in my garage when I was moving out of my home at the time... I really had forgotten about the game. I went online and found "miggle". I mad lots of orders... and some one over at miggle told me there was another EFer in my area named chet. I went and met him... I could not believe how advanced the game became! and the rest is history. THANK YOU CHET

2. Mike Robertson
Until Mike I never thought nor was I the least bit intrigued of going outside LAEFL... If it wasn't for him I would have never have met the great coaches and new friends I have made on the other side of the country. He truly inspired me to venture out. Mike you will always be family to me!

3. Matt Riley
My God son... practicing with him and watching him grow in the hobby is an absolute joy. He brings my childhood thinking back... ex: "hey Matt.. you got to come over Friday!! I got this new play you got to see!!!"... "Ok Celo, and watch me stop it!!!" Ya right Matt... you wont be able too" Ok celo, we will see" Matt I always forward to the hitting the electric gridiron with you

4. Vince Peatros
Ya I said it... "Vince"
As much as we hate each other... I got to give him credit... He taught me the fundamentals of tweaking back in 02. He is the man who truly showed me the art of tweaking... even though I know he gave me solely the basics and keep't the good stuff to himself... I still appreciate him for that.
VP, It's kinda your fault LOL

5. Dennis Tweddell
I met Dennis when I was 10yrs old back in 1980... he had this game and he was in a league with friends in the neighborhood. I wanted the Rams... but he was... He said, "Your from New Orleans, you should be the Saints! Besides they just drafted George Rodgers" then he did the Heisman pose... I had NO IDEA what he was doing or talking about but from that minute on I was the Saints!!!
Dennis wherever you are... Dennis, those we the best of times and I thank you

I would love to hear ya'lls top 5 EF influences

My top six...

1. Reginald Rutledge - By far and away! This man has taught me EVERYTHING I know about the game. EVERYTHING!!! Fantastic teacher. I wish he hadn't had so many bad experiences. He has so much information that other guys could surely benefit from.

2. Barry Stephenson - One of my best friends in the hobby! Went through a lot together on and off the EF gridiron. My ace in the hole! I can call this guy any day of the week.

3. Celo - Can't say enough about this guy! I've had the wonderful opportunity of traveling the country and being in this guys presence and he's just an amazing friend.

4. Doug Shanafelt - The rookie. My best EFL bud! Period! He don't like me and I don't like him but we can't stop calling or hanging out with each other. In my house we called those kind of guys "brothers".

5. Uncle R.J. - Keeps me grounded. He says what he has to say. It may hurt your feelings but its all in love. Love Unc. R.J. His team will always be the team in the practice jerseys.

6. John Rowan - I had to make mine the top 6 because all of these men are very important in my life outside of EF and John Rowan could not be left off of my list. What a fantastic man! Many of you don't know him but there is not a more kind individual in all the world and he has the best looking EF team every year! haha

Nice idea to put this post up Celo!
