Propers for that. Now that you've seen the light, you can't criticize Larry Boy for taking Satchel. In fact, Larry Boy's shrewed attempt to manipulate the vote is much more forgivable than taking a second year player with the sole purpose of undercutting Capella's many people's earlier era selections.ok nips, raise the horse from the dead so we can kill it again. i have nothing wrong with you not liking the pick. enough with the sob story about how it ruined the draft. moreso, please, enough about how I did something as if on purpose, to submarine the draft. i put as much time and effort as anyone but uconn in that draft, and if you can not understand that it is insulting to be called "selfish" when you had no intent whatsoever of "upsetting" anyone, not sure what else to say.If I "ruined" a draft, my apologies. If because I picked someone that was 100% legit and legal (even though I knew it would hurt my chances... but hey, thats selfish for ya) you are still harping on it, then that is not my issue at this point.It doesn't bother me at all, but you did ruin that league and Capella some teams wasted many hours during that draft all due to your selfish pick....But it gets such a rise out of you Nips. I like risen Nips.If I were you I wouldn't post again after bringing up LeBrongate. You ruined that league for more than a handful of teams, including Capella a team in this thread....exactly. :gang:Propers please...DAVE STIEB![]()
cap - the pick was made with no intent to ruin anything, and if that was an unintended consequence, my apologies. then again, i have always tried to stay within the rules and make for a fair playing field for all. if that is selfish, dont know what else to do/say

I have by and large supported Larry's right to pick Satch.Puh-lease. Get off your high horse. Many of us made it clear that the LeBron pick was crap when it was made. Undercut the draft. It was dead until you brought it up. You made a joke of it after you berated Larry a bit for the Satchel pick. I think my "reactions" are far from the problem here in terms of "fun competition and good sport"....for the record nips, I think your reactions ruin far more than anyone's well intentioned pick. Im not even saying this for fishing, or to argue or whatnot... I sincerely think that fwiw (which might be worth nothing, but I do think excessively agressive reactions that take an almost immediate personal attack slant only does harm to these endeavors and fosters an atmosphere of animosity rather than one of fun competition and good sport).

not that is bothers you, of course. you just refuse to ever give, ever.LeBron is the reason Capella the team you rooked decided on putting the '94 rule into effect for this draft as to not allow a single pick to submarine weeks of effort. To imply that you're unsure if you're pick "slighted" anyone is almost as insulting as the pick itself.

They don't even play the same position. What are you comparing them by, shoe contracts? I know it can't be MVPs or All Star appearances.
What if Lebron gets hit by a bus tomorrow, will you still think he's better???

No no no no. My defense during the draft was legit. But why would I care about it a month after the draft? Any recent mention of Lebron is (most likely) prompted to illicit a hulk like reaction.I still believe it was a legit pick, that only should have hurt my team but I dont want to rehash that.About Lebron being "SOOOOO" great, if it was mentioned after the draft was over, its probably fishing.
