Well, I'm almost positive I quit under 1.0. I could point out how I got better each year at VaTech(I think 16-12 when I decided to spend my free time with HBD) but that's rather pointless. And while your HD accomplishments are something to marvel, it's not really relevant to why your kind aren't fond of me.
The problem you(the collective) have with me is that I don't think you're entitled to stake a claim on a player, do minimal recruiting and just have him handed to you because you're A+. It makes for a bad game. I'm not sure you recognize that or, maybe, you do but just want the easiest path to success now that you've climbed the mountain. Either way, we're not going to agree. Success should be hard. Sustained success even harder.
And, yeah, I disagree with spud as much as I disagree with you. I've been around forever. I just happened to start playing HD again in November. Unlike some, I don't post in forums of the games I don't play. So, pretending that he and I are one and the same is just plain dumb. But, if it makes you feel better, go ahead.
