I didn't insult anyone. I'm just providing analysis.


You called me out saying I quit b/c I got some criticism b/c of a trade. You then call me out for joining Phenom. Wtf is that sh*t? "Why do I feel like those two kids watch way too much WWF wrestling?"

Really not necessary. So far, you've been behind each and every single bit of controversy in this thing. Quit being such an instigator.

I posed a simple question after you resigned right after making one of the worst trades in B.A.T. history. I wasn't gonna say anything at first but you didn't seem too down and you said it wasn't anything you couldn't get over then right after that you immediately began gloating about "joining forces" with xKLNx Phenom.

I'm not behind or causing any controversy, I'm like a journalist or reporter, I just ask the appropriate questions so hey...don't shoot the messenger. I don't create the news, I just bring what crosses my mind (the unsaid obvious) to the forefront and put it out there for the court of public opinion to see.

I made the worst trade in BAT history in 3.0, actually. And I didn't quit.

You are basically Broussard then, if that's what you think you are doing. Just stop.

If he's skipped, does that mean he's dropped?

I like St.Knick, but I recommended he PM or email his selection the last time he was skipped and he failed to do so again. He was skipped a few times in the last BAT, and didn't participate in the discussion thread..nor check his email for trade proposals throughout.

He's just picking his team and not contributing much, while holding this thing up. It's getting ridiculous.

I saw some wicked emotional shifts here in a matter of 30min or so

Frustration
Sadness
Pride
Glee
Anger

All from one poster.....at what point will 4.0 be what it's supposed to be?


5494 I mean did you really have no idea you were joining forces with KLN at the time you made your announcement?

He was the second person I spoke to. I contacted ctorres as well. KLN offered me a spot when ctorres didn't respond so I accepted.

I'm probably like 7 picks away but most likely won't get to pick until two days from now. :lol:

One thing I know about you and KLN is that you talk on a reg through chat. I doubt he was in the dark and found out after the fact. This looks suspect as all get out.... is all I'm saying. You gotta quit towing the fine line of perceived board intelligence. We're pretty smart around here and you are one of the youngest cats posting on this forum.

All you had to say initially...... is that you're bowing out of your initial GM role(without the trailer mini drama story) and hooking up with torres or KLN once you receive word. Why post your email here again as if someone really had a legit shot to welcome you as an assistant. Hence why you declined hooking up with the other suggestion BECAUSE YOU ALREADY HAD YOUR MIND MADE UP AND PLANNED THIS.

I had made up my mind to bow down, and my reason is legit. You can believe that if you want, I really could care less about your opinion let alone your life. (Not to sound mean, but to me you are just the ghost behind the computer screen.) I did also make up my mind that I wanted to be an assistant GM. Did I know whose assistant I'd be? Nope. ctorres and KLN were the first two I tried to connect with. KLN was my first offer.

I may be 16, but I'm sure as hell more mature than some of you turning this into some Jersey Shore drama.

Dude probably mad busy and all but I PMed moocow my pick when I thought I wasn't going to make it. Not that hard to do.

And also, I think after the judging is finally completed the top 20 GMs get to keep their teams/spots in BaT and the other ten spots are up for grabs for GMs wanting to join but can't because of too many vets. I think that'd make things cleaner regarding that aspect..But there should also be a better way to draft because this is just ridiculous. I'm going to be back at Penn. State for school before the drafting process is over it seems. :-?
