After some consultations, and with a certain amount of sadness, I have determined that due to comments made on this board about both the U.S. and Russian governments, and with our impending move, I must leave the board. I have withdrawn myself from the Poly board for months, but unfortunately that isn't good enough. Were we headed to any other post in the world this would not be an issue.
So, after 2 decades of posting, I must say goodbye. It's been a great 20 years and I am sad to leave. I have met many of you, and consider several you to be friends. We have been through deaths and births together, medical emergencies, job changes, my graduation, and so much more.
We are in DC now. We have consultations and security briefings this week. Next week we have counter-terrorism training, and then we depart for Moscow on Monday, the 22nd, arriving on the 24th.
I will remain active up until we leave DC.
For those who are interested, I remain available on Facebook. If you want/need contact info feel free to PM me. I'm looking for a place to move the AFN previews to, so I hope that you will all still read those. If we can, we will continue to post video on youtube.
Best of luck to you all and may your teams win in 2024, except, of course, when they are playing UCLA, and Deac's team. They should always lose.

Best of luck Daniel. It has been a long time. My first post on CBS was with Deac, and you joined in on the post soon after. It has been a while. Thanks for enlightening me with the notion that football is played outside of the SEC.

Best of luck and both of you stay safe in Moscow. Will be on facebook, so if you want to pass that good ole AFN stuff to me, I can place it. It was a pleasure finally meeting you in Ruedesheim and my group still asks about you. Thanks und einen Gute Reise.

It has been a pleasure, notdpb, to have shared these Boards with you and to hear your perspective through your posts. Going to hate not having your balance on here as political season is well under way, but 100% understand. Wishing you and the mrsnotdpb all the best in your new endeavor, and hope you get to continue life's adventure around this great big world of ours and enjoy wine and new discoveries as you go!
Cheers, my friend, as it has been a long road since those days at CBS. Catch you on Facebook.
What is funny is your account on Facebook is "safer" than on here. (lol...)

I didn't think janitors needed to worry about their sports board post? I just thought your absence from the poly board was out of shame for picking the wrong side.... (i gotta get them in while i still can) Serisouly though, i worry about any american in moscow.... no jokes. praying for you and your family. i hope you can come back after you leave that place. Won't be the same without you around. good luck and godspeed.

Just be sure and return when you are no longer restricted. I was looking forward to your reports on Russia like you have made other assignments and will miss them. Just be sure to return Daniel

Best of luck and stay safe. Regardless of differences in social or political views you have always been respectful and respectable. As one who has never traveled internationally, I always enjoyed posts from you (and BD) from foreign locales.
Best of luck to you and the missus at this next stop. Stay safe, do good things and have a little fun.

We will miss you here, but completely understand your decision. I look forward to your AFN previews on FB or some other venue. Unfortunately, I doubt that I’ll be visiting you in Moscow, though I’ve always wanted to visit Russia. Closet I’ll be is Poland in June. Be safe my friend.

Safe travels and I hope all goes well on the next chapter for you and the Mrs. Your AFN write ups have always been great. I’ve never been to Russia so it’d be interesting to get your take on your experiences.

Good luck in Moscow Daniel. I've always wanted to visit but don't have the courage in the current political climate, best of luck and safe travels for you and your wife. I'll miss your vlog posts here!
