MOP's posts should be pinned (1 Viewer)

[Y A Y O]

I am a big fan of Ministry of Pain's RB and WR weekly match up publishing. I have been coming here to the sharkpool every Friday for 3 years just to read on that topic. He is my only trusted adviser when it comes to player analysis. His game projections on total score is also very helpful for my gambling needs. I am not sure if this has been discussed before, but please consider pinning those threads.

MOP.... Here are my two words for you:

Thank You!

 

[Addai's Adidas]

I like his articles too, bu they need to proof read and edited before they are pin worthy.

 

[JAA]

I would read some MOP random shots

 

[moleculo]

they should put him on staff already.

 

[Jed]

Seems like pretty generic stuff to me.

 

[MCguidance]

Seems like pretty generic useful stuff to me provided through hardwork and dedication to stimulation beneficial conversation.

Fixed that for you.

 

[Darko M]

Nothing unique about his threads. I actually find them boring, uninformative, and get a "HEY LOOK AT ME I THINK I'M A FANTASY GURU" vibe from them. He should stop wasting his time.

Maybe if the the search function was better (i.e. let you search words with less than 4 letters like oh, say, RB?) it wouldn't be such a pain trying to find it.

Was that necessary? Even if you really think that way, what's the point of creating animosity here? Whether I agree with MOP or not I still enjoy reading his take on things, along with other views as well. That is never a wasted read. Furthermore, I don't see you putting any effort into similar threads.

I dunno. Seems every time a quality poster gets made the message boards take a hit.

Too bad they can't since the Best Buy thread years ago.

how am I screwed? I am up big because of random shot I took by taking spread for cinci over pit, cleveland over cinci, NO buffalo under. Read his point projections for those games.

That statement would apply to 90% of the posts including yours....If we cut out all those posts, the forum would become rotoworld ...ie "so and so did not practice today"I welcome people's opinions...if you don't like the thread, don't read it....I sift through various threads and make my own decison...often times I am wrong....but at least I have the comfort of knowing I am not the only one that thought that way.....lol...So stop being a moron.....

 

[Otis]

 

[The Comedian]

Yeah, searching function is hard.

Clearly the best solution here is for MOP to get on Twitter/the blogosphere.

Agree or not, you have a guy bringing it every week and generating thoughtful discussion. I have no idea why you wouldn't appreciate that other than jealousy.

 

[Giant Wooden Badger]

MOP doesn't even do the WR thread.

isn't twitter limited to 140 characters or something like that? No way MoP could break down RB's in 140 characters or less.

MOP.....Thanks for info and the time you put into it.

 

[The_Fonz]

Where are his darn threads today?

 

[Trap Play]

Some bulletin board software allows users to 'sticky' threads of their choosing. I'm not sure if this BB software does or not, but if it did that would be the ideal solution.

I will look into it! I will report back in a few.

For now, will somebody be kind enough to bump the week 7 RB exploit thread. Browsing the forum on an iPhone isn't easy. Thanks in advance.

 

[footballnerd]

MOP is the most fun thing to read in this forum.

FBG forum searches suck (get more errors than results)

Stick the thread!

 

[Breesisdaman]

I've ragged on MOP a little this year (In fun) because of some bad Saints predictions, Never the less I do appreciate the effort he puts forth each week and I do take the time to read his posts. I think they have pretty good value (Saints forecasts aside)

What do you mean? The search function works fine for me as long as it's a word longer than 3 letters

Bookmark this, it's a list of all MoP's topics. You'll have to wade through some occasional tuna stories, though.

Yeah, I think the idea is that he would send out a link to his latest posts/analysis via twitter.

[Muahahaha]

I actually wish Wheelhouse had never been made staff; his weekly thread was awesome and got a lot discussion. As FBG material, I barely notice it and also don't get the Shark Pool discussion of his stuff.Let's keep MOP off the staff or start putting FBG material in an avenue where we can comment and discuss it.

 

[KCC]

I would read some MOP random shots

Your weekly RB threads are so much more valuable and unique. Great job Darko. Wonderful insight! Valuable contribution here! Thanks for making the world so much better! What would we do without you?

 

[shredhead]

MOP doesn't even do the WR thread.

I was going to mention this too. laughinboy should get some props for the WR thread. I read both threads every week, both laughinboy and MOP deserve plenty of kudos.

Great job of stooping to his level to make a point.

You can. FBG's has it where you can use google to search words that are 3 letters or less.

 

[PatytonsGhost]

I vote YES

Hmm... well so it does. I stand corrected (even though this should be possible with the FBG search). Guess I'll have to try it out.

who's MOP?

+1, actually it isn't all that good.

 

[LarryAllen'sJockstrap]

Seems like pretty generic stuff to me.

Not trying to elevate the the tool factor in here, but the MOP Start Em/Sit Em threads are pretty vanilla.- Great RBs and RBs with good matchups get color coded green.- RBs on bad teams and RBs with bad matchups get coded red.There is very little additional information that the average NFL jumkie doesn't already know... nothing earth-shattering. No real in-depth analysisOn the flipside, I usually do take the 2-3 minutes to scan through the posts. In a way they remind me of the 4 month old FF magazine I still read while taking a dump. Doesn't add any value to my FF season, but beats staring at the bathroom wall.

Agreed. Pretty run of the mill. Hardly cutting edge, but okay to read through. Pretty far from paid content, but I enjoy taking a peek at the matchups. I would say the layout is pretty generic and it's mostly obvious stuff, so I'm not sure why people get so pumped about reading them and defend MOP like he's a war hero. But I hope he continues to do them, since it's better than most other content.
