So, someone picking, oh, I don't know, 25th might not be getting the cream of the crop.




You just nailed why your plan doesn't work you fuc*ing ego-maniac retard. There are THREE absolute game changing superstars in that group... So the top 2 teams in the league get the top 2 picks receiving game changing superstars to add to their 108 and 117 win teams.

The bottom guys are barely minor leage filler, but last year's worst team is picking LAST... so they get nothing. So the rich get a hell of a lot richer and the poor get nothing, but your dumbas* keeps saying this is good for the league simply because you're an ego-maniac who can't admit that you rushed into a halfas*, ****-poor idea.



It's not MY plan, dumbass. The world agreed, or at least didn't object, until the order came out.

NOW, if this plan doesn't go thru, we will use MY plan. How do you think MY plan will treat the person who called me an egomaniac retard and a dumbass?


Hell, if it happens it won't treat me or the other bottom half of the league any different then the plan you're using now... we still couldn't win.

Only difference is that you'd get a few titles. That wouldn't matter much though, from what I'm hearing you're pretty much considered to be a loud mouth piece of shi* that nobody has any respect for anyway. So then you'd just be a guy that nobody respected with a bunch of titles.

From what you're hearing...is this the same magical mystical people that told you I am a piece of **** and use aliases in all my worlds?

You know, the people that don't exist?

Although I grant you the POS premise...I am nothing if not that...

ltbolt, who are your "sources" that you speak so highly about? People around here, etc. Other owners in the league, etc.

Maybe you can ask WIS to put all of the eligible stud draftees in the same airplane and then crash the airplane.

Kill them all and no one benefits.

All hail the Hypnotoad indeed.

"Retire" every player on this draft list and no one gets anything, the super team gets reduced, and the world moves on.

All hail the HYPNOTOAD!

Best damned thing I've heard... hands down. Is it possible for Admin to retire players?

If ADMIN refuses force retire the players, they should be inactive listed at LowA to see if that'll force any retirements at the next rollover.

But ADMIN should allow the league, as a whole, to demand this as a solution. The most vocal opponent has agreed this is a solution that works for everyone. The team getting Kirby Berroa might be a little ticked, but frankly, the draft solution wasn't helping competitive balance.

Forced retirements cut the Cheaters franchise down to a dominant team with a shelf life. Everyone else gets a leveled playing field going forward.

ALL HAIL HYPNOTOAD, SPLITTER OF THE FOXX BABY!!!

Tropicana already addressed one problem with the "Mass Retire/Kill" theory (its affect upon the next seasons draft), but another problem is replacing these players on MikeT's roster. He would be losing an entire team worth of minor leaguers - even if position players were available in Tryout Camp, it would be an unfair financial hit.
Not sure if admin could do this even if they were willing to try.
