Trade: Chicago (N) - Anaheim

[NYgiantsfan5689]

I'm actually the mastermind behind Tampa Bay's 11 division titles in 12 seasons. And I managed St. Louis without him even knowing

Prov is by far the most organized and most scheduled commish on this forum. I have said it before and will say it again. And being organized, and having a schedule and sticking with it goes a LONG WAY in a sim league.

I have a lot of respect for what Prov does... I don't think much of the rules I guess, because I know how hard it is to run a league myself.

Leagues definitely need structure of some sort. I guess it depends on the person running them how much, and the people within the league who decide to follow the rules how far the rules will fly. But I respect Prov for trying to lay down the law. Sometimes, though, I do agree that it may be unneccesary if only because people just will never listen to certain things, and you have to just let them go.

lmfao

i remember when prov sent me back a trade because i had typed it up before the offseason rolled over, and one guy was now making $350,000 instead of the $300,000 i had typed. he had me re-type it and send it back to him

I reminded everyone not to type up / send stuff before the roll over as I've done before. It's not my fault you chose to ignore that...that's why I asked you to type it up again...because it seemed like a blatant disregard. The same with this, but whatever. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of dealing with it.

People will ***** about how I want things and those same people will ***** if I mess up how they wanted their lineup or whatever. The difference is when I make mistakes like that, I fix it and make it up to said GMs by fixing a player or whatever. What do I get out of it?

Here is a perfect example. Dam, drunk or not, wants to make stupid comments after I ran his team for two+ seasons while he was MIA. After I fixed that career-ender he requested. After I edited Alex Gordon's contract due to the FA issues. He didn't ask me to fix Gordon's contract, but he didn't thank me either. Not one thanks for any of that. I even let him back in after I had replaced him because I got tired of running his team for two+ seasons. Instead all I get is people busting my balls. It's quite funny.

I'm not trying to pick on Dam because he's just one example. And I don't do this for praise, but by the same token I don't do it to continually deal with BS either. I try to run this as smooth and efficient as possible with little issues. I know I'm not perfect, but the league has run pretty damn well since I took it over. No file issues, nothing like that.

Sooner or later there will come a day when I'm not able to sim as often as I do or when I won't sim at all. And I'm sure no one will care including myself. Life goes on.

I hope no one took what I said seriously, it was said in total drunken jest. I guess I shouldn't have said it, but I figured everyone (Prov included) would get a cheap laugh out of it and move on.

It was completely a joke, I figured you would laugh at it, I wasn't trying to "bust your balls". I think everyone does appreciate the stuff you do to keep things running smoothly, but I do think that sometimes you take some things some people say too seriously (i.e. when you used to respond to every complaint in the random ramblings threads). Sometimes things are just there to be there, it's not intended to insult or harm.

hard to say when that's all that's there for the most part.

Wrong.

Why don't you try being the mastermind behind 1 division title first

[NYgiantsfan5689]

joke brown. joke. get over it.

i realize i'm not a very good GM. I'm working on it

[browntown653]

Keep working.

nah man, you're doing alright. I just hope you don't turn Toronto into a financial nightmare like you did with your other 2 teams.

[NYgiantsfan5689]

Hyrule was a mistake, i thought i had a lot more money than i did, and honestly, i don't know what happened with colorado. i didn't start with much money, but that was def my fault, i lost track of what i was spending. i'm definitely watching toronto's money, especially with the low fan base. i know, i know, the krout signing was stupid. i just really needed a competent 4th starter, and i wanted to make sure i got him.

Krout = the real Barry Zito

Colorado covets Krout even at 4 million too much if you want to rectify your financial situation.
