I traded back to subleg :)

Idk, i'm honestly more confused by this than upset. I've read the last 4-5 pages that describe me as "butthurt" "crying" ect ect..... and real talk, im sitting here looking at my computer screen dumbfounded by the stance of some people. I guess a gentlemen's agreement is a foreign concept to some. I assumed Julio sent some hailmary trades to subleg thinking subleg probably didnt give a shit and would accept just for the fuck of it and that once called out, he would make it right. But, he's spent all this time defending this as honest and completely insulting *almost* everyone's intelligence. 99.9% of the world would have called foul on this, that .1% is Sammich.
To me, as i stated before.... your character is your character, no matter what the stage is. If you're willing to act like this in a meaningless fantasy football game, i cant think of a reason you wouldnt have the same approach to anything else.
This is the last time i'm going to dignify this nonsense with a response. Julio, your stance says a lot more about you than it does about me. I'll leave it at that.
And back to the show..........
Doubt and defeat is starting to creep in on Sammich. Brandon Marshall already has a TD catch.
I honestly don't understand what the big deal is. No one has any money in this. It was all set up for fun. Why get mad if you don't win? You don't think Bill Belichick wouldn't try to trade off his worst player for Julio Jones or Arian Foster (or comparable players) if he could? I started off 4-0 or 3-0 or something and have since had my ass handed to me. I don't care. It's not like I pour my heart and soul in this thing. I look at it for maybe 30 minutes a week and check the available players and make a move if I feel like it. It's whatever. Hell last year, I did the auto-draft thing and used the same team the entire year. Never added, dropped or traded with anyone. Only thing I did was cover BYE weeks with bench players. Sinfix, you're alright in my book whether you go undefeated and win it all or if you lose the rest of your season. Same with Mike, S'mich, Julio and the rest of you guys. I won't respect you guys any less or more whichever way the season goes. I think it's just fun seeing if your line ups pan out the way you hoped they would. Like the thrill of the hunt, you can say.
I did lock Subleg out, though. If you guys want him to be reinstated or if he PMs me saying he's playing, then I'll reopen him.
Remember, it's all in fun, fellas.
Is obvious you do not know me personally, for those in this thread that know me personally, would probably not agree with you on this, I have rarely taken anything personal online.. And believe me, I have had some stupid drama on IA since February 24th 2001.. When I'm serious about something, Im serious about it.. Especially when it comes to character.
If you felt insulted by me saying why I did what I did, that is a clear cut reason as to why you were upset.. When in reality, there was no reason to be upset, a simple PM could've been enough.. And you want to judge my character ? Anyways, im not upset one bit.. I actually had a little fun with this ordeal.. And kept me a little entertained through the day..
damn bears defense.... i think that's a wrap.
Julio is a stand up guy man, im not questioning his character or anything at all. Im just disagreeing in a fantasy league thats all. I think we are all getting a little heated. Lets just take a minute and calm down.
Its totally possible to say strong opinions without being insulting, and that goes both ways.
My only point was that the trades met certain criteria, and that criteria was that they were lopsided and only 1 team benefited. There is no argument you can make for Subleg having 3 QBs and 4 RBs and trading away 1 HOFer and 1 of the top 5 WR in the league. You guys know what you did and what you were doing! YOu figured 1 guy was no longer playing so if you could convince him to send you all his talent, hey , who cares.
I just disagree with it. While technically LEGAL in the terms that trades are legal, as stated, there isnt a fantasy league around that would have sanctioned those trades.
But at this point i dont care anymore, it is what it is. Ive moved on. Im 2-5, doesnt really matter what i think :)
The only bitch in this thread is you.. First one to whine. You think I give a shit about gentlemen agreement online with some Dbag from Columbus Ga ? Get real man.. You think im one of the little punks you get into little IA google cat fights.. Wont happen.. I got under your skin, and you called it cheating.. Lol
You know whats funny,
Mikel Leshoure has 6+ points
Megatron has .60
Fitz had 19 points..
Lol..
Stay Mike.. I got you next week..
I think Teams have been defending CJ better this year, thats all.. Typical when WR's is coming off a crazy season.
And Gronk is now the #1 TE in this league.. Lol So muc for TG
I don't know what happened as I work all day where I don't have access to a computer to stay online every second to keep up with things. Like I said above, this was all set up for fun. Nothing to get too serious about. If there is a next season, I'll let someone else set up a league and run it how he/she sees fit. No big deal to me. This is my first time "running" a league and I don't take it that serious that I feel like I need to babysit it.
That's all I can say, I guess. Let me know how you guys want to proceed........
TG old, but he still gets his.
I NEED A RB
Only thing I killed in this thread was QD's Team.. :)
It's not about the rules and there's no need to babysit. As i said before, there's such a thing as a "gentlemen's agreement". Julio stated that he doesnt honor a gentlemen's agreement with a "douchebag from columbus"
This would be the equivalent of playing a pickup game of basketball, tackling someone when they were driving to the basket to win the game and then defending yourself by saying "i dont see any refs". That's pretty much what Julio did.
He made bogus trades with a person who decided not to play and was willing to unload his team to Julio. Julio even PM'd me after the fact and said that Subleg was done playing and he was going to divide his players up between people, in which i responded that would take the entertainment out of it for me.
He then comes back and defends his "honor" relentlessly even though it's clear his actions were suspect. Typical IA "home cooking", Julio didnt like me calling him out, turned it into something it wasnt.
GG sammich.
Side note.... im starting to feel very good about predicting the Bears to make it to the superbowl.
Is all set it done man.. Move on.. When I need advice on gentlemen agreements, I will call you.. :)
x2 man i was confused that entire game i was like yes...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MARSHALL LMAOOOOOO def was a good game, and a good fantasy game. i dont know if the bears come out of the NFC to the superbowl..it's possible, but i duno. still have green bay and the giants...and dont forget teh 49ers. NFC is going to win the superbowl again this year i believe though
Quick question since im still new at this. I need to add a def, rb, and wr since i have some bye's this week. Do I just go to add and then select the team/player i need?
you dont have a rb or wr on your bench? i mean your roster maybe full so you're going to have to go to waivers, see whose available and be willing to get rid of some people on your roster to fill spots if you dont think whose on your bench wont put up the numbers you want
Ok I think i got it dropped 2 players, and then added 2
shoulded added 2 and selected teh ones you wanted to drop
