You perfectly expressed the feelings most of us have now for old school players especially Ra and NaDa . I have been Kang Min fan since forever. And as someone pointed out it is so painful to watch players like Nada and Ra failing. Simply I have no words to explain, their loses hurt so much

Ra doesn`t have much more time left before he joins army. Maybe one more year. It would be so great if Ra could reach one more final and give his best shoot at it.

Old school FTW!

Another quality article HonesTea!

I especially agree on the part about Yellow - he's the superfan with the best seat in the house.

From now on: every once in a few months on Team Liquid, when a gorgeous article pops up, an article that contains almost everything, passion, knowledge, beauty, personality and intelligence combined with a flawless logic, TLnet's mods should ponder: Is it worthy enough to be compared to any of HonestTea's articles?

As for the writer, you're a freaking ideal every TL writer should aspire to.

Congratulations, this was much more than just a pleasant read, and THANK YOU on behalf of the whole community.

Please continue to blow our minds in the future

(At that moment, Yellow, who is watching the match at home while listening to Avril Lavigne's new CD, turns off the TV. He flings a bottle of cognac to the wall, where it shatters. He then crawls into bed, hides under the blankets, draws his knees close to his chest, and weeps).

hahaha yess i like you

You gave me that feeling...the kind you have when you realize you've been taking your blessings for granted before it dissipates right before your eyes into thin air.

Brb, listening to Avril Lavigne's "When You're Gone".

BoxeR's roll over MinGu counts for nothing? THE FANS ARE SO FICKLE. A loss here and there, and you've already given your heart to someone else, sluts.

OMG HonestTea, that is EXACTLY how I feel about the old school players. I have wept and wept over the old schools, but I have becoming more and more numb. When I see the likes of Nal_rA and XellOs in the quarterfinals of the MSL. You know how much it builds me up? I have a feeling that this buttercup is going to be let down. =[. However, I think it better to keep my hopes down so when they do actually overcome their age gap with the young guns I will be there screaming, "NINTENDO SIXTY FOURAAAAA BIOTCH!" alongside you. =]
