I haven't written on this site for years, not because I don't use the site, quite the opposite I love the bombcast and all the video content, but I feel like now it the right time to write with the passing of Ryan Davis.

I'm not even gonna sit here and say how much of an awesome person Ryan was, we all already know how great he was. For 13 years Jeff Gerstmann and Ryan Davis were like my best friends. Like most people on the internet i've always been really awkward around people and had a hard time making friends. Ever since high school Ryan Davis and Jeff Gerstmann showed me that it was cool to be yourself, and that being a nerd was not a bad thing. In a way Ryan Davis is responsible for the man I am today, having just gotten out of the army after serving for 4 years and i'm now going to college for Psychology. I know it might seem like i'm making this tragic moment about me but i'm not. This is my way of expressing how important this man was and that he should be remembered as such. I only had the pleasure of knowing Ryan Davis for 13 years and only over the internet and I can with all honesty say he was and will always be one of the men I look up to.

Reading above I know this whole blog is a mess, but thats how i'm feeling now. Ryan Davis if your some how seeing this where ever you are, out in the ether or w/e, I want to know that you ment more to me then most people i've meet in person. The reason being is you were the most kind, gentle, funny, honest and real person i've ever seen.

One of the many things I love about the internet...is i'll always be able to see your face whenever I want.
