    Today, Leaguegaming is officially half a decade old!

    And what a great run its been the last 5 years, From a small group of hard core hockey fans playing in a simple NHL league, to the largest sports team league every created. Another sign of LG's success was how when we first started how desperate we were to get people in the industry to recognize us, and today we host some very inflectional people in the gaming industry and seen as the leader for community & league gaming.

    I'd like to take the time to thank some of the founding members who have been here since day 1
    Special Thanks to: Xboxjon, Marauders, Striker, Latdogg, The Destroyer, NYEXTREME, SkaLicious, Stang6697 & pop0331 just to name a few. It's amazing growing older with people from this site. Case in point when we all first met latdogg, he was a young pop of just 17, and now married with puppies of his own.

    To everyone that makes Leaguegaming a success, Here's to you and to 5 more strong years!

    Congrats Tris. Thank you for providing us a great site to hang out and enjoy the leagues that are supported here. I have met some great guys throughout the years like Xboxjon, Swiper, jujimum, Marauders, MGM, to name a few. I found this site through XBJ's sig on the Xbox live forums. My 5th year anniversary is in exactly 2 weeks. Great times. :)

    The site has come as far as it has because of those guys Tris mentioned leading up until some of the members that have come in the last year. We all deserve congratulations for making this community what it is. I know that if some of you guys are ever in Columbus, we'll have to go get a beer. On me.
