Hey Rob - do you know how happy I've been on account of not hearing from you or shmael?

Quite happy. WIS is back to being a pretty relaxing place for me, as I hope as it has been for you. Let's keep that going, eh? Let's shoot for no snark in S3. I have nothing to say to you and I hope the same is true for you.

If you truly have nothing to say to someone, don't say anything.

jp, you’re not really looking at the situation.

Robert responded to me. I continually tell him not to do that. I am noting and have noted that this thread has been copacetic when my comments weren’t responded to with snark.

There’s nothing more to it. I need you and jh to understand that because there are no other interpretations to be derived from the situation. Or you can keep doing what you’re doing, which is akin to strawmanning

You.
Brought.
Me.
Up.

Out of the blue.

On top of that, you bastardized my name, so you're clearly being antagonistic on purpose.

That'd be like me tracking 98 down and saying, "Sure has been nice not dealing with you."

You ******* did it.

You ******* did it on ******* purpose.

Now, as usual, you want to whine and cry because people are responding to a shitstorm you started. You can't just pick and choose who to antagonize and then cry and tell people to not talk to you.



****.
Off.

ps... I decided I'd play season 3, but only if bds is blacklisted. I'm not paying $50 to go through all of this **** again just because the guy can't keep from stirring the pot.

Oh, no, I'm looking at the situation. You can't tell me there "are no other interpretations" because you're only looking at it from your biased pov. I'm an outsider with no skin in the game, but who sees the argument forced into the thread that's open to all in the league. As with pretty much all human interactions, there are multiple interpretations to be had. You felt he was being snarky to you, ok. I thought his comment wasn't much to get worked up about, but some people have thin skin.
So, you respond to a comment with more snark, and you bring up Ash for no good reason. That prolongs the snarky comments, and brings in someone else you know you don't get along with. That is 100% on you.
I think the initial comment you reacted to wasn't worth any blow-back from you, but for some reason you did. Sure... So, why not be a better man and just not comment back? You might be surprised how often that leads to no arguments and it all quickly fades into the past.

"Hey jp, it sure has been nice not talking to you. So relaxing. But don't you or jhsuckcow dare ******* talk to me."

-bds in 2 months.

I’m not really trying to wade into any of this because I’ve had it. I moved most of my conversations to sitemail over the course of this league and it’s a lot better. Honestly unless there is a big change I am having second thoughts on a third season and if i do play I probably won’t be in the commentary threads for it.

I would just like to state for the record the my initial response to bds9992 was because I thought he was directly asking me to provide additional info. I was trying to be friendly and encourage him to give it a shot because it wasn’t too complicated and I was done with the data posting at the end of the regular season.

Everyone else can feel free to argue whatever. I’m just stating the facts from my side of the fence in terms of my intent.

no, **** you, Rob. It's your fault. There's no other interpretation.

Hahahaha. This pic has had me giggling for a few minutes. Is it the **** strewn everywhere? Is it because the little guy looks passed out from exhaustion? Or, is it thinking about what could have occurred in the 10 minutes preceding the pic?
It's all of that, and it's glorious.

It is glorious, isn't it? A youtuber I follow has a running gag with this pic. He talks about controversial changes to a video game, and how everybody in the forums was supportive of it. He works it up with big smiles and relief, really sells it, and then he interrupts himself with, "No. It was a shitshow. Obviously," and puts up this picture. Then he reads absurd comments from the forums. He's very British, and I think that makes it even funnier.

ahhhhhhh

you actually did it ltb!...lost two and gave me a chance...that was an epic sim-f*ck to end a season and i couldnt take advantage of it

amerk and robusk...congrats that was a good battle we had for those final spots in the east...close all year until you guys put me away in the 10/6 games

had a chance to get all 5 in and give pex some trouble but its over now

pretty damn proud to be playing for a chance on the podium tho...wasnt sure if a kobe/bird team could win in this league

Aahh, those Brits. I'm a big fan of dry humor, and having lived in England for 2 years, it was as dry as it gets... Except for when drinking, especially with Scots. It's loud, it's funny, and the few words you can make out are dirty as hell...

dominant performance by pex...its probably up to dbkc to stop him from taking the crown

mptrey's balance between his teams was pretty crazy and totally worth the extra 20...only 2 this time around..i think it was 5/6 last time?

Well, if I win all four leagues I made the playoffs in, that ties me with pex if he doesn't win a single game.

Wait. I didn't add in the victories to get there. What is that? Another 64 points? Sweet. That's all I have to do, then. All. Seems reasonable. It is, coincidentally, my motherfuckin' birthday month.

Technically still 13 owners with a chance to win it all. Realistically, probably just 2.

Yeah that world five battle was brutal. I really needed that third team in.

I was re-evaluating my rankings and I should have had Kobe much higher. The shooting isn't great but everything else he brings to the table is just so good.
