I figured that since this is the currently the busiest team board on here that maybe we should put a moderator or two in place.
For the other boards I've been putting in the current and former mods as they register and display an interest in the position. I figure that would avoid speed bumps as the membership levels rise every day. They're used to the rules and the boards generally know how those moderators apply those rules.
Would this board like to nominate a moderator or two? Or would a previous moderator like the job and how does the board feel about them resuming a moderators position?

I nominate anybody that doesn't ask or show unsolicited interest in being a mod.

I nominate anne....
She's the most level headed and even tempered poster here and I think everyone respects her.

I second the Anne nomination! Cool-headed and never condescending. TorontoLion might be an interesting fit as well, that should keep him busy worrying about others things than trades involving Kyle Lohse!

No love or invite for insidethedome0? LOL I was going to make a joke about him, but I figured it wouldn't go over well. But heck, we should consider it, I mean without him we wouldn't even have this new and wonderful community.

Lets dig into the past and Nominate BigBadBlueBird. I would also like to see 85Jays have it again.

I don't think Keith has the time anymore. I thought that's one of the reasons why he stepped down.

Neither the time, nor the inclination. I appreciate the nomination, but I served my time. That and yeah, I'll be out of town pretty much the entire next eight weeks, so my job wouldnt let me mod anyway. I'll go with 85Jays and/or Anne.

I don't think I'll get it but I'd like to nominate myself as selfish as that seems. I love the Blue Jays with every fiber of my being and have for 20 years, I love these boards and the right to post on a free and open board like this (used to love Fanhome before it turned into a corporate place which is why I respect this place so much) and I respect the magnitude and impact that this position holds. It has always been a personal dream of mine to be a Mod of either the Jays/Leafs or Wrestling board. I won't waste the chance if given it. I don't know what else to say or what else to use as proof to make my case. I just love the Jays with such a passion and I would love to help these boards flourish and grow.

Thanks to people who have mentioned my name. I genuinely appreciate the support. Unfortunately, I'll also have to remove myself from consideration ... moderating the way I moderated was time consuming and something I don't have time for anymore. I also don't have a taste for being the heavy anymore. I kinda liked some of the people I ended up being hard on, and I'd rather just fit in as part of the community these days.
I'd support the Anne and Maple nods. I'd also suggest CaptainBolduke, who is the one who initially invited several people to come here and who I think has a keen interest in seeing the board succeed.
And given that there are roughly 30-40 posters using this board already (at last count) having two or three mods wouldn't be a bad idea.

Thanks 85Jays and FirstRounder
I will also nominate MLBJB and FirstRounder for the position's (85 has taken himself out).
FirstRounder has been a dedicated poster for quite sometime and seems to agree with the whole concept of impartiality.
MLBJB was the person who first notified me about the new board... then I subsequently began inviting others. He has also been a long time insightful poster who seems to have a passion for the success of this new board.

Thanks for the kind words Captain! However I don't think I'd want to be a mod at this time.

Thanks for the nominations, your are all so sweet. but I really have no interest in being a mod, As I mentioned once before, I'm lazy too. Just about any of the people mentioned could do a fine job, as long as it is something they want to do.
