Either drop out or attempt to fulfill your personal interests and accomplish nothing. Those are your choices.

No, no, no... I don't at all think they rigged it (though I do think Trop placed me in the 25th slot considering before he did the random order he was on here laughing about how funny it will be to put me in the 25th spot bcuz he doesn't like me). Regardless though, I don't think they rigged it. I just think they rushed into a plan without thinking it through. The plan needs to ensure the best teams don't pick first and the worst teams last. It can't all be blind luck and hope you don't screw the league up in the process. Why is it bad to have a well thought out planin place?

Go back a few pages, read my suggestion, and tell me what's wrong with it. Bcuz despite what Trop will admit, there are quite a few owners in Foxx who are saying they hope Admin takes that suggestion.

Your plan still leaves the possibility of the top team picking first and the worst team picking last.

I think your idea sounds like a ton of fun, Hart...

Sorry, I won't drop my team just so you can do as you please. Turns out we all have a voice in this despite the fact that you showed up in world chat and declared that you were inacting "marshall law" and you were making all decisions.

That's right Harth, Trop actually tried to declare "marshall law" on the league. Get real, we're all part of this whether you like it or not.

For the millionth time...it doesn't work because, to name but one problem, the sixteenth team picking in the amateur draft last year made the playoffs.

To name another reason, just because teams finished in a certain order via record does not mean they are the worst teams. You seem to think you would have been. 500 last year if it weren't for injuries...how is it fair then that now those players are back you still get to pick in the top half?? No way you can spin that that makes me think that is fair....boy to mention the minor league talent you have been stockpiling due to your tanking.

Again...I will revisit he order if you remove yourself from the draft like I did. You also won't get a say in anything but at least I will revisit it.

Drop out of the draft not the league, nitwit.

Don't tell me about it. I don't care. Maybe marshall law is exactly what the league needs. Instead of randomizing the draft, you can randomly select an owner to impose their will on the league. Now THAT would be fun.

A: the league obviously need a major overhaul and EVERYONE in the league that came in agreed that Trops idea was dynamite, so don't cause problems for the sake of doing so.

B: if this truly isn't about your pick, then, as aforementioned, pull out of the draft. That way you can go all righteous and not seem like you just want a better draft slot.

C: Thanks

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?

I don't need a plan. I have an awesome team that could win 120 for the next 10 seasons if I don't acquire another player.

And, by the way, I don't have to try to make you look bad. ANYONE reading this knows your motivation. You make yourself look bad.

I will do as I please. How do you intend to stop me from trading players?

They did. They just didn't know it at the time.

Mike I would ask that if ltbolt removes himself from the draft hthat, quickly, we revisit it. I wont do anything that benefits him...but I will look at it if he takes himself out of it. I think that is reasonable. And if you truly are there to do what we essentially paid you to do, then yeah, I hope you'll be on board to quickly discuss with the kid and I.

"Paid me to do"? How much did I make on this transaction again?

Oh, that's right, you and kid sent me $10 GC. That's $20. A team costs $24.95. Since I'll be giving it up once this nonsense is over, I won't get any credits. So, the way I see it, I actually paid $4.95 to help out. So far, I've spent about 5-6 hours on this nonsense.

You sound as stupid at the_kid when he started barking orders about what I should/shouldn't post. Check yourself.
