***OFFICIAL*** FFA MLB Draft (1 Viewer)

:rotflmao:

you have got to be kidding...

you are comparing an old guy killing (hitting) someone with thier car to me picking the wrong player in this MEANINGLESS sim??

But I'm the one that is seeing this wrong...

Spock.. go outside, get a job if you don't have one... just realize that THERE ARE SO MANY MORE IMPORTANT THINGS THAN THIS THAT IT ISN'T EVEN FUNNY!!!

It doesn't matter that much... to even compare this to someone hitting the gas rather than the brake is a JOKE and shows that you have absolutely not ability to reason or think rationally in this thread...
You are the one who is concluding that honest mistakes can go without remorse. But that obviously is not a universal truth as the senior citizen situation proves. It's not a comparison of the situations. It's an application of your logic to both situations to show that your logic is not universal. If the senior citizen cares about human life then he will show remorse. If he doesn't care about human life, he won't. It has nothing to do with whether or not it was an honest mistake. If you care about the other owners in this sim, then you will show remorse. If you don't care about the other owners then you won't. Don't pass off some bogus logic that because it was an honest mistake we are crazy for expecting you to show remorse. Just admit that you don't give a rats ### about anyone else in this sim other than yourself, and as such you don't care if your mistake affected the standings or not.
why? Because you think that because an old man should feel bad he KILLED someone I should feel bad because the rule was NEVER clearly stated?
No. You should feel bad because your mistake affected the league. It's only you that keeps harping on the "never clearly stated". We get it! We understand! It was an honest mistake! We're all on the same page in that context. Now get out of that context and admit that you won more games than you should have and apologize for that.
I did... and you said it wasn't good enough like a 3 year old...why should I do it again? I admitted I was wrong... that isn't good enough for you...

you just want to complain and say I am wrong, as usual... no biggie, I'm used to it, and if I did apologize you'd just move on to something else, so why do it even if it is just to appease you?
You said you were sorry for contesting Capella's decision. You never said you were sorry for how it affected the standings. In fact you said: "I don't think my start or my record really has anything to do with Quantrill... "
lol... I still don't think it did...if it did, I am sorry about that... but... I don't think it had an affect...

Also, you need to remember that a lot of the runs that have been scored on Quantrill have been since the engine change... before the engine change, but after the player change, Quantrill was at like 2.50 ERA, barely more than he was beforehand...

Example of changes in player quality after engine change:

Clemens is winning more games and getting more Ks...

Gooden is getting ROCKED...

Glavine just isn't playing all that well...

so its not like Quantrill is the only change..

 
honestly, I didn't even know who the guy was before this draft... lol
Why did you join the draft if you don't know anything about baseball? lol
I know about baseball, I don't know a ton about middle relievers...especially not ones who play for the teams Quantrill has played for (Blue Jays, Dodgers, Yankees)... He sucked in Boston and Philly, so that doesn't really count... lol

I know about baseball history... I know how the game works... I just can't stand the Dogers/Yankees... and the Red Sox (and a few other teams) are about to get on that list, too... :hot: :rant: stupid baseball...

But I do know about baseball, just didn't realy know who Quantrill was...

FINALLY!!!I'm done. Although I believe harrier may want you to admit that it DID have an effect. I'm willing to agree to disagree on that point. But thanks for finally apologizing.

 
I actually agree with Larry. It was an honest mistake and if he had the guy's right year in there, it'd only be the difference of a couple of games. It's not like you can pro-rate the week he's having now that Quantrill is legit and think that would be closer to what his record would be. I mean it's only a relief pitcher, and those guys are a dime a dozen in this thing and really not that important in the grand scheme of things. On a personal note, I really hope Larry wins the thing as he's clearly drafted the best team and deserves to do so. The rule was not really clear to start with and I may have made the same mistake if I were in Larry's shoes.

As far as guys getting on Larry personally for reporting stuff in the thread, I think that's unfair as well. Many people have said stuff that went over the line and I think it was decent and proper of him to report stuff that, frankly, made me uncomfortable.

Finally, I gotta say I've grown to admire Larry. He sticks to his guns in the face of adversity and really knows his baseball. (Yes, I think Tim Wakefield deserves to be on an all-time team, what can I say?) I think Larry is the FFA's version of Richie Valenz (pre-crash), a man loaded with talent and a zest for life and family.

"And stars don't fall out of the sky, do they?"

I'm glad we had a chance to do this draft and sim together Larry, 'cuz it wouldn't have been the same for me if you were not a part of it. :thumbup:

PS Shut the #### up you idiot!

:rotflmao: Nipsey should be the #1 pick in the All Time Schtick Draft.

"The Walter Johnson of Schtick"I'm just happy to still be able to log in after the barrage of bannable posts I let loose on Friday night. The mods really must like me. I should be in Peensville.

The title of the thread was something like, "I'm drunk, Syracuse lost, who wants to fight?" It covered such topics as homosexuality, parental ejacualtion and the effects of semen on the scalp, all said a bit more blunt than that. All in all, four (4) semen jokes in one thread (until it was removed), a record that should stand the test of time. I then started thread #2 with the same title. Good times. :thumbup:

Depending on the level of disgust in the semen jokes, isn't that just your average, everyday FFA thread? Maybe that's why you're still here...

I believe Capella can vouch the thread was not your everyday thread.
 
I believe several fellow members of :e: enlisted the help of one of my fellow moderators to spare Nipsey.
It was kind of like that scene in "A Christmas Story" when Ralphie gets on top of that bully and pummels him:"I have since heard of people under extreme duress speaking in strange tongues. I became conscious that a steady torrent of obscenities and swearing of all kinds was pouring out of me as I screamed."

Close...I'm this guy. Was in a Christmas Story, but left mainstream acting all together to pursue a life in porn. Turned out to be a move I regret.....

You were in Kidco?!?!? :rotflmao:Edit to add:

Knowing that Flick went on to do pr0n, read this description for the movie Kidco on the IMDB.com website and try not thinking the wrong thing:

Plot Summary: Kids who live on a horse ranch decide to sell blah blah blah.... (more)

No. Can't say I have. Apparently I've been deprived.
 
so far this year, I have a combined record of 1-17 vs. Harrier and Pickles' teams.:mellow:Out of all things with this sim, that is the most absurd. Even the ####ing Rays beat the Yanks 4-5 times out of every 18 they play.I'm 59-38 against the rest of the league. :thumbdown: to the sim for that. What a joke. In no way at all is that accurate.

Harrier and Pickles have the two best teams in the league--while you shouldn't have only one win against us, it does make some sense that that's where your team has faltered.

I don't argue having a losing record..1 win out 18 is ####ing stupid though. That's not even close to being an accurate representation.

I agree with mrharrier.
 
so after getting Jackhammered by Harrier/Pickles, I go on to sweep Spartans Rule.That one out of 18 bull#### is going to cost me. Stupid ####ing sim. :thumbdown:

If you had drafted even a decent team you wouldn't be having this problem. I at least have a legitimate excuse as certain players in the sim (Feller, Fingers, Morgan and Eck) were left vulnerable to hackers and wouldn't you know, they were hacked into and some figures were changed (this has been confirmed). I didn't want to use it as an excuse, but after hearing your whining, I felt I had to say something. Unfortunately for me the numbers can't be changed once the sim is running. You won't hear me whining like Capella though, that's for sure. I know in my heart that had the hackers not gotten into the site and messed with my guys, I'd probably have won going away. I sleep well knowing that.
