1901 New Century Progressive Lg Draft Topic

rant.

frankly, i think it blows that the guy who got first pick (years and years of christy matthewson) then did a little vanishing act
and let the draft stall , then comes back and says he didn't mind because
“i already drafted my core”
And of course, it turns out to be arvidjoseph.
i looked over the list of owners signed up before joining this league and if that name had been there, i would have passed.


i played enough live games with arvid to know the ‘i work a 70 hour week” is pure bullshit.
he ducked out of games in progress on a regular basis, then would turn up right at the end and say
that he thought he heard a burglar and had to,go,check, and then he’d ask to play another game.
and then, by the second inning he was gone again.

Bad neighborhood, i guess.
and then there was the playoff series, which in live leagues must be played live, where once again he held up the entire post season
by disappearing. I know. It was my team that he was scheduled to play.
in fact, steve knows too because he had to take over arvid’s team. After a week or so of delays.
i think the phony excuse that time had something to do with parole violations.

so now here he is and he’s got a brand new name but he’s up to the same old ****.

steve, you’re a good guy and a great commish, it was very big of you to let arvid be in this league.
but I’m ****** about it.

I can understand the concerns you have. I promise if any owner exhibits behavior detrimental to the league they will not be part of the next season.
i just want to look forward. It was disappointing when they couldn’t keep live play going. The first “New Century Progressive League” ran for 30 seasons
and at the time I considered leaving the site when live went away, but for me the addiction to What If Sports runs deep.
So I hope we can just put this behind. I am looking forward to playing this and think it will be better this time around.
I won’t let anyone ruin it. So again be assured if anyone messes with the league they will be gone.

Isnt ditching half the draft detrimental to this league? I dont like it. Plus the guy has 2 teams he is screwing up. I think this should be up for a vote before league play starts

Hey this is supposed to be fun. This is what will happen. We will play this first season with the 16 teams we now have. No teams are screwed up. I have been keeping up on the picks.
No inter league play, no trades between his teams. I would prefer not to make the picks but let’s get through this and play the season.

i do this for fun not for headaches
