The President Jack Ultimate Appreciation Thread of Ultimate Awesomness

[Technorgasm]

THANKS JACK!!
for everything.

You have been a fantastic leader and club president!

Your tireless efforts has taken this group to the next level and beyond by insisting on a level of respect for the game, the players, the organization and the supporters themselves.

You have helped extend the RPB family to new heights while at the same time presenting a face (and not a bad looking one either - lol) to media outlets both here and around the league.

You have delt with more than your fair share of issues and problems while at the same time balancing a career and family. Often times putting the needs of this group ahead of your own.

I for one wanted to call out this great mans efforts and sacrifices that he has made for all of us. Well done sir! and Thank you.

See you on the SHOTGUN EXPRESS. . . . . :drum::drinking:

[trane]

Jack, sei grande.


You have been great. Thanks Man.

[Suds]

Thank you seems so little when you hear of the work Jack has done.

All the best.

[jloome]

A fine diplomat for the fans.

[Super]

Wonderful job, Jack. You're leaving the post on a high note!

[GlenM]

WOOT...EL GRANDE PRESIDENTE JACK!

GlenM

[Roogsy]

The man has great hair.

[Boris]

Thank you for everything jack!

[cementhead]

Thanks Jack!You are a friend and great leader!

[daner90]

I have always been proud at the way jack represented our group through all of the up's and down's. As a group we were always able to be confident that his actions were in everyones best interests. Thank you for everything.

[DOMIN8R]

Who is this Jack guy?

[BC101]

I salute you jack!

[reggie]

so who is the new prez?

[trane]

^ Mighty.

[DOMIN8R]

Oh, that Jack.















I was just kidding. Honest.

[Oldtimer]

You represented the group very well.

[Mark in Ottawa]

As mentioned in the other thread I appreciate all of the work done by all of the Exec and RPB volunteers.

That being said if and when the shit hits the fan (bad pun I know :facepalm:) it takes a big man to stand up there as president, representing the supporters and trying to set the record straight.

Thanks Jack and I'll say the same in person when I get a chance to see ya round BMO field.

[nobodybeatsthewiz]

Thanks, Johnny, errr......I mean Jack! LOL. Seriously though, I don't think any of us will forget the way you handled Tasergate. Professional, rational, and a great over guy overall. My bans were firm but fair...lol. No.2 RPB pres, but no.1 in our hearts!

[Batman]

Ya I thought of the Johnny Depp similarity too, but when I heard Depp was named sexiest man alive, I decided no friggin way...no similarity whatsoever! :.)


Thanks again Jack,

[loconet]

Muy buena persona ese Jack!

[Carts]

so who is the new prez?

I've narrowed the candidates down to Marisa Miller & Miranda Kerr...

I'll let you know when I'm down interviewing and auditioning them both...

Carts... :D

Depoe?

[Whoop]

Thank you Jack.

[wzhxvy]

Thanks Jack for all your hard work and countless hours spent supporting RPB.

[Hustle]

Thanks Jack

[billyfly]

Look at this rationally for a second people.

Did Jack bring us the playoffs in his 2 years - NO.

What was so great about him?

[Afra]

Thanks, Jack. You have made the job easier for future presidents.

[FluSH]

Muchas Gracias Jack!

You lead the group well through some tough times... I also want to personally say thanks for the advice given even if at times it was in a drunken state of affairs... you are wise my friend.

He taught us all restraint...
so we wouldn't be tempted to "trash the trolls". :drum:

[Parkdale]

better than having techno scream it drunkenly at the party.


Cheers Jack, and thanks for putting in all the work, through great times and hard times.

[Bluenose13]

Great Job Jack......Thank You!

[Wagner]

Well Done Jack.
Thanks for all your effort.

[Menelaos]

Gracias por todo wey!
Nos vemos pronto y te disparo una chela cabron.

[eustacchio]

Thanks for all of your hard work.

[Ageroo]

Always many thanks to you Jack for your leadership......and I will never forget standing next to you cursing out the Honduran keeper when Canada played Honduras in Montreal! :) That is the sign of a true leader....;)

[Jack]

:)

Thanks guys.

It was a great run and I thoroughly enjoyed myself (well, most of the time, anyway!).

I am very proud of this group and what we have accomplished and I know that we will continue to set the bar and only get better. The time spent as president really helped me grow as a person and I learned a lot about myself as well as made a lot of great friends (and very few enemies!).

Moving forward I am very excited to see Boris go to work (and me put my feet up and backseat drive! :D)

Boris will bring the energy, enthusiasm and fresh ideas that I think will help us continue on our path.

The best is yet to come!

Come on you Reds!

[Roogsy]

With less RPB business, does this mean we will see you again at Barça watching events again amigo?

And does this mean I have to stop bowing before you when you enter? :D

[Phil]

I cant speak highly enough of Jack. His hard work and dedication for this club is beyond measure.

I am looking forward to seeing him be a massive part of this club for years to come...:D

[pekduck]

thank you jack!

[Jack]

You may continue to bow.

And yes, I would like to be at more Barça events this year.

[Roogsy]

For you, I will courtsy. It goes with your hair. :thumbsup:

[Mark in Ottawa]

:)

You mean you aren't gonna take Boris' place as Capo? :rolleyes:

[H Bomb]

I tend to like most people, and dont know anything about politics. But I like Jack more than most people, and know he can speak for me anytime. Punxy What!

[Hitcho]

Do we have to call him Mr. President still, like outgoing White House occupants?

Are you going to change your board name now to blend in with the mortals?

Thanks Jack. This has been a great SG and a great forum under your stewardship.

That said, if I may, I'll borrow a line from our friend Mr. Knight - ONWARD!!!

[AL-MO]

I tend to like most people, and dont know anything about politics. But I like Jack more than most people, and know he can speak for me anytime. Punxy What!

Once a Punxy, always a Punxy.

Thanks for everything!

[Parkdale]

Do we have to call him Mr. President still, like outgoing White House occupants?

did we ever call him that?

"Jack" seems to fit, so I'm sticking with that.

[ManUtd4ever]

Great work supporting the cause Jack and good luck to you...

[Roogsy]

Jack = Jubilado

:smilielol5:

[GlenM]

There's only one...Jack!

There's only one...Jack!

Like me and you, he loves BMO's New Grass to!

Walking in a Jack wonderland!

[Damien]

Fanks a mewyen!! :)

Cheers Jack!

[Oor Wullie]

Thanks for all the great work Jack.

[Redcoe15]

Thanks much, Jack.

[mlsintoronto]

Jack is one of the top 5 supporter group leaders with a hat.

Who I still like.

But jack what is your position on modern football?

I kid bec...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[t.o_moose]

I don't post here as much as I used to, but I'll pull myself out of semi-retirement to say thanks to Jack for being a stand up guy.


..wait a second. Jack, you should be thanking me! If it weren't for me holding you back that one night, you woulda got your ass beat by those cRapids players!


j/k :P hope to see ya next year

[JDG]

I barely knew Jack when he was made President, and wasn't sure what made him so special. As i got to know him, and watched him at work as President, I became more and more impressed, and often thought how lucky we were to have such an outstanding individual representing this group.
I already know Boris, and have faith in him, but I must say that Jack is going to be a tough act to follow.
Best of luck to Boris, and Jack, you have my most sincere gratitude for all you've done.

Bravo!

Great job jack-o, from all of us punxy brothas!

[Rudi]

Always many thanks to you Jack for your leadership......and I will never forget standing next to you cursing out the Honduran keeper when Canada played Honduras in Montreal! :) That is the sign of a true leader....;)
LOL I remember this! I was also standing right with you guys, with the megaphone I had brought in (the same one Zac uses on our capo stand).

Jack kept taking it from me to yell in Spanish at the Honduran keeper and Amado Guevara. I think at one point the keeper turned around during one of Jack's tirades. :D

On behalf of another supporters group, I also thank Jack for his efforts and wish him well.

[Hitcho]

did we ever call him that?

"Jack" seems to fit, so I'm sticking with that.

The youth of today... no respect! :D

Wait a minute, I thought King Dave was going to be our new leader? :D

Thanks Rudi.

Yeah that was a fun moment in an otherwise dismal game for Canada. I think when the Honduran keeper flipped me the bird, I knew I had done my job :D

[tfcmanu]

Great Job Jack...Always there to answer questions.. as for Boris he will do well..congrats. :drum:

[Yohan]

Congrats to Boris and thanks Jack for all the hard work he put in. His calming and cool presence when shit hits the fan is going to be missed!

[Gobi]

I'll never forget the day I met Jack: first season at Bathurst subway, chatting on the streetcar down to BMO.
I thought: this guy's a nobody and is going nowhere, I'll prolly never see him again.


:rolleyes:
I kid, of course!

But I certainly didn't expect him to move on to such greatness as he did and accomplish as much as he has.
I've never felt more proud to be a Red Patch Boy and I owe it to Jack's leadership.
I look forward to slumming with a more relaxed Jack at games next year.

Long Live The Prez!

Congrats Boris, the future looks bright! (You poor bastard.) :D


:scarf:

[VoxPopuliCosmicum]

Jack -- I can't possibly express the depth of my appreciation and respect for you, so I'll just say, "Thanks."

[Keystone FC]

Jack,
Thanks for all that you have done to make me and eveyone feel like they were a part of something special.
I know that when I would see you you would always have a handshake or hug waiting.
My fondest moments were the drunken Octoberfest dance that did over and over again at Shoeless and dancing the Heather Hustle.

Thanks again for all that you have done for our group, the supporters, club, AND the city.

[CoachGT]

Every once in a while you are lucky enough to get to know a man that you'd be happy to follow, pretty much where ever he might go. Jack is just such a man.

Jack has brought a voice of reason, a voice of passion, and the heart of a true supporter to the presidency. he calmly and rationally worked through things, was open to changing his mind when the circumstances and the arguments changed, and led us into a feverish pitch with his drum.

For many, our first interaction with Jack was in the initial Terry Fox headshave, an event that we, as a group, are proud to be associated with.

Jack, I'm proud to have walked alongside you through the last couple of years, and look forward to continuing to do so for many years to come.

Thanks for leading us to where we are today.

[BMO Field]

Jack it was always great working with you..you are a great part of what TFC has become and your leadership of the RPB was reflective of the passion you have fior the club and your fellow RPB's.

Cheers buddy and all the best...

-Marc

[Parkdale]

^ SUIT..... there he is!


it's been too long since I've had a good reason to say that.
Don't be a stranger Marc - I've got a ticket in 112 with your name on it!

I will take you up on that next year guaranteed...made it out to three matches this year, but not lucky enough to get into 112...That would be a blast.

[twistedchinaman]

Jack, my man -- thank you. :)

If you're ever out West my brother, ring me up -- I think I owe you a pint (or two)! Although I have no idea of a) what he looks like and b) if we've actually met. Oops!

[Ladies Love Julius James]

He's pretty fit TCM.

[koryo]

Thank you Jack.

You need to be dedicated to step into the firing with this lot :)
