This is the translation of what you are doing "OHHHH, let's all get together and save Foxx from themselves, we can fix their world"

- why don't you take your own advise and let them stew in their own mess and just warn the newbies off.

But if you want to be Dumbasses and wifs co-dependents by spending your money butting into this FUBAR world instead of making Wifs clean it up then expect to be called DUMBASSES

At the end of the day, will it hurt you in any way?

No joke. I'm hoping we can get a few more people in the league guys. We have five so far, who else would like to help out?

Pay no attention to griv, he's experiencing "that time of the month".

And after that one season, it'll go right back to being a cesspool that should be eliminated. I don't have $100, which is the minimum it would take to straighten things out (based on Mike's Happy Jack example, which as I recall was one - not nine - super team and a group of 10 committed for more than 3 seasons.)

Does ANY world deserve to go out of business? What specific circumstances would warrant that?

HJ had 3-4 "super teams"(as you know, only 1 team can win the WS) and only 4-5 new owners who joined. Fortunately, several of the holdover owners saw the problem "It's your team, you can do what I want." It was a really ugly chat for about 18 months.

It doesn't really matter if a world "deserves" to go out of business. They don't.

If anything this will be entertaining...I will give it a try for a few seasons!

I am looking for a rebuilding project so this is as good as any!

"It's your team, you can do what I want."

The problem I have with people who use this logic is that "It's my team I can do what I want" does not apply to "it's my team I will veto when I want." For those people doing what you want with your team does not work both ways.

If your philosophy is "It's their team they can do what they want with it and that is why I don't veto." then don't whine about it after one of these teams is loaded.

Moral compass and competitive games don't mix, that is why rules exist. Rules tell you what is acceptable and not acceptable in a game, and rules are there to ensure everyone is on even ground.

Lot of first-time HBD players joining up. I think nothing is changing.
