The big guy spent a solid chunk of Thursday re-tweeting messages of support from folks both wishing him well and sad to see him go. Here is George's final message to Cardinal fans:

Jus to all my #cards fans no I luv all y'all and wish I could stay but things happen for a reason, but where I go I will always be a #card

I'll miss the smile, the smooth jumper, and, of course, the steady stream of pictures highlighting him in mid-air.

Here's wishing the big man a (one more time...let's toast to 2008) Goode senior season.
