What's the story behind your handle?


Mar 2, 2017, 9:07 PM

I see some unique poster names that suggest some meaning of importance.

I'll start with exsitu panthera which roughly means off site conservation of tigers. I moved from the upstate to the lowcountry and found myself surrounded by coots, out of my natural environment, and surviving the five streak. In addition, I added three more tigresses to the fold.

How about them Tigers!

I don't have any kids of my own (very much by design) but have 3 nephews. One (10 years old) that absolutely lives & breathes Clemson Football. He's my little coach buddy. Really cool post man. I look forward to seeing some of the responses.

Re: What's the story behind your handle?


Mar 3, 2017, 1:36 AM

My name is a reminder to me how I want to live much like the players pick a word to live by, I picked Name Humbleservant, here's an explanation of the meaning.

James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

Jesus himself is the ultimate example of humble servanthood. Philippians 2:7 says he emptied himself of his glory and took on the form of a servant (literally a slave) to become one of us:

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. (Philippians 2:5–7)

In fact, life's greatest meaning and reward are found in this kind of servanthood. The Christian life is not about God serving us and making everything perfect for us.

No, it's about us serving God by becoming a humble servant to others rather than being religious and judging others by law, when JESUS came to be our servant he was a humble servant to us by Giving His life so we could live covered by His Grace despite our failures and sin, if we trust in Him.

If you look for the happiest, most excited people, you'll find the ones who are serving others to make their life better, they are "Humble servants" an I want to strive to be like Christ.

I have used this name in my email and online gaming. I went by Phinman or Phinstigers on sega Dreamcast, PlayStation and the Xbox online gaming and many early online gaming '98 - '02. In 2000 I had calling to give my all to Jesus and that's when I picked Humbleservant to remind me whom I belonged.

Late 50s early 60s, my dad would take me through Fike to look at pics of players on the walls and our bowl trophies. That football made of gator hide just fascinated me. Gatorbowl became my favorite bowl, usually involving two southern teams.

im4CU was my 1st scok. I'm for Clemson University
Then there was jbuckland. A scok I obtained and just thought hey I'll be J. Buckland. The J probably stands for John or James or Justin. IDK
After that scok I had The Rally Bass which stemmed from the bass seen at the GT game in 2015
Then came variations of my original name Toe Twan TOTE TOTE1 and Crump banned all of them too along with the perma banned of tigeroftheeye1
Now Im tigerstripes123 b/c it wasn't taken yet when I was looking for the next scok name.

wearing colors other than orange to football games because solid orange makes for a more impressive atmosphere than spotted colors.

And that led to me whining about a million other things.

A Calhoun In NJ - it does what it says on the box


Mar 3, 2017, 1:26 PM

Last name Calhoun, from Anderson SC, Clemson grad in 2002 (undergrad) and 2004 (grad)...then met a Jersey girl at Furman. Fast forward to 2017 and I've lived in northern NJ for over a dozen years. The best part is when I call to make reservations and they ask me how to spell Calhoun :-D

hi, i'm freakgeek. it comes from the dramady


Mar 3, 2017, 3:54 PM

"freaks and geeks". the lone season aired on NBC 1999 - 2000.
oh, such a fantastic show. if you're unfamiliar with it, i
think it's on the netflix. it's set in the year 1980, i believe.
when i joined tigernet it was on IFC in syndication, thus my
handle.

Well, mine is kinda simple. My initials are BT, and almost everyone if my friends and coworkers call me "BT", so I just stretched them out and added Tiger to the end.

Re: What's the story behind your handle?


Mar 4, 2017, 10:33 AM

I am a son of a Tiger. I was raised in a Clemson home, however I did not attend Clemson because they didn't offer my major 45 years ago. I took the handle as a tribute to my Dad, Class of 48 who passed away six years ago. My 90 year-old widowed Mom still contributes annually to IPTAY...so I guess that's where my inheritance is going. Hmmm...I could then venture to say that I am "All In!". I am passionate about everything Clemson. My nephew attends Clemson.

I walked across the stage in 1988.


Mar 4, 2017, 11:08 AM

I came to South Carolina from Tennessee where I spent most of my life. I was a Vols fan but not a real fan at all. I came here looking for work and moved here with my wife and 5 children in ~'80-81. Work wasn't much better.

I enrolled in Clemson in '85 fall and crossed the stage in Aug of 88. I had another child during my Jr year and still another since then. During my first semester I began to learn just what a Clemson Tiger really is, I'm still working on living up to the identity. I had no idea it was a lifetime commitment and a process which so satisfies the soul.
