    Hot Seat #74 - Providence A's

    Rules for the Hot Seat

    This is something we are continuing on with. One nice aspect of being a smaller forum is building a solid community and getting to know many of the forum posters and here is your chance to get know one another even better!

    In The
    Strike3Forums Hot Seat threads, you may ask the one in the Hot Seat (in this case, Providence A's) up to 3 questions. The questions can be about baseball, movies, relationships, whatever.

    Please keep the questions appropriate and know that the person in the Hot Seat can refuse to answer any question he or she feels uncomfortable with. You may ask questions for the next week, then the guy in The Hot Seat will answer up to three of your questions.

    If you would like to have a chance to be the next one up, post that you would like to and
    Providence A's will select from the ones interested for who will go next. Or, he'll just select whoever the heck he wants.

    Timeframe involved: Just so we know how we are going to do this ... the person in the Hot Seat will be there for about one to two weeks. Questions, such as this thread, will be open for one week and then we will close the questioning so that the poster has time (up to one week) to get some answers together.

    Questioning will close Friday, May 22nd. Answers will then be opened until Friday, May 29th.

    1. In your opinion, which is the worst form of inferiority complex in sports among the following:

    a) A player tugging the front of his uniform to remind viewers to "remember the name". Just in case they had forgotten.


    b) The "We don't get any respect" or "Nobody gave us a chance." rally cry made famous by the Patriots and has since been adopted by most every other team, no matter how much the media has fondled them lately.

    c) Teams that claim that they just go about their business and leave the talking on the field, yet when given the opportunity, won't ever shut up about how they just go about their business and leave the talking on the field.

    1. What annoys you most: Red Sox Fans, Yankee Fans, Tom Brady, or HollywoodLeo?

    2. Who were your three favorite GI Joe characters.... AND, what bothers you most about the casting and early previews of the movie coming out later this summer?

    3. Based on all of your experiences in OOTP leagues, does TSSL Rich Harden rank as the best OOTP player you've ever um.. "been around" ..?

    As much as TSSL had ended the way it did, would you ever do it again if you had the chance?

    What are you thoughts on Bill Simmons as a columnist/podcast person?

    Does Billy Beane have to make the World Series to validate him being one of the best longstanding GMs around?

    TSSL: Seattle Mariners 2006-2029, Pittsburgh Pirates 2030-present (209-277, 5 division titles w/SEA, 1 championship w/SEA)

    What hidden talents do you have that you think people overlook?

    If you could have 3 people over to dinner who would you invite over and why?

    Government conspiracy theories, do you believe in them or no? For example: 9/11, landing on the moon etc.

    Re: Hot Seat #74 - Providence A's

    1) Do you miss TSSL as much as I do?
    1a) What are the most and least rewarding parts of running a sim league?

    2) Who are your favorite teams in the other 3 "major" sports - and any other leagues you follow closely?

    3) Name the 3 best and 3 worst things about Rhode Island.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    2. As a phys. ed. teacher, how do/would you get the scrawny or chubby, unathletic boys involved in team sports when the rest of the boys consider them as a liability?

    3. While you were pitching with a partially torn labrum, did you tweak your mechanics (like switching to a delivery that uses less torque) to ease pressure on your shoulder?

    Re: Hot Seat #74 - Providence A's

    1. Being a former pitcher, how impressive do you think the NAIA pitchers feat of 21 shutout innings in 26 hours

    2. Will Billy Beane ever win a title? Do you wish he had left for the Red Sox if you could do it all over again?

    3. What is the best/worst parts of S3F?

    1. What is the most difficult thing about being a die-hard fan of a team across the country?

    2. Do you think I was on the brink of bringing Toronto back from obscurity in TSSL? Or do you think it just wasn't enough to turn the page?

    3. Tell a story in which you laughed possibly the hardest you ever have.

    What would you do if your doctor told you that you have less than two years to live?

    rep for all that asked questions. I'm both shocked and disappointed that there were no questions from DK.

    and do I need to wait for Leo to make an official answers thread? yes, yes I do.
