SBI Reader Roll Call (Take Four)
Good afternoon all. It is time to bring back the reader roll call one final time. We're at almost 800 responses and I really want to see if we can get to 1,000. Just remember, if you've provided your info here before please don't add it again. Those of you who haven't taken part yet can keep reading on.
(Alert, if the next three paragraphs sound familiar it's because they're basically the same from the last three times I did roll calls.)
You've heard about the SBI Mafia, but what remains unknown is where all the readers are checking in from. There have been comments from all over the US, Europe and Asia. Now it's time to get a real sense of where everybody is.
Let's hear it. Tell me where you're from. Post your name (comment nickname if it's different) and where you're posting from. You can also share what clubs you support but that's about it (No zodiac signs or favorite movies, this isn't MySpace.) Now, if you already posted your information below PLEASE do not post it again.
I plan to post a detailed breakdown of where SBI readers are checking in from. I can say based on the early returns that New Jersey/New York, DC/Virginia/Maryland and California lead the way as 45 states and 14 countries have been represented in the roll call. Since the number of hits the blog gets has increased considerably since the last roll call I'm hoping for enough responses to create a good sample of where SBI readers are checking in from:
Fire away folks, let's give the SBI Mafia an identify. Post your info below.

Oops...forgot the clubs. RBNY above all others, been a season ticket holder every year since MLS began.
I also support Man United and to a lesser degree follow with interest Everton, Barcelona, and Inter. Wouldn't say I'm a true supporter for any of those though.

Sidenetting: Chicagoland.
Fire till I die, even if we continue to trot out far too many 5'6" defensive midfielders each game.
I also have an unexplained soft spot for RSL, except when they play the Fire.

Pat Eyler from Provo, UT. I'm an (unhappy) RSL fan and a (very happy) BYU Cougars (PDL) fan.
