OUT OF CHARACTER BOARD

[GM Franchise]

Dude...you know you won't be able to put together a half decent team around him. You're going to put yourself in the same boat you did a couple of seasons ago.

Yeah the same boat I'm in that's sinking fast after hitting an iceberg.

[Strike]

Okay, everybody...one, this isn't the first time it's happened. Two, we've dealt with this accordingly before. Three, double-edged sword; some people will be able to still play ball accordingly and negotiate while others...may not have the powerhouses they were planning to build. All a part of the game itself. Besides, if BD wasn't the one to do it, somebody else woulda signed a top caliber player to a ridiculous contract that would spike up these costs in the first place.

I dunno, just think the "shooting the messenger" bit is getting redundant at this point. But maybe it's just me.

I think it's more so because he started the original onslaught a couple of seasons ago.

Hence why I think it's redundant. We've done this roundabout before. <_<

True.  But then again he should have learned from the first time, lol.  Either way, it is what it is and we have to deal with it.

Let the record show my "gee thanks, BD" was in jest.  Just another hiccup to try and work around!

Basically, this.

We're FBL ballers. Dealing with these crazy shenanigans is the kind of thing we've gotten decent at or have pulled hairs over. Still all in good fun, of course.

Anyone got any ideas as to why I am 'unstable in my position as GM' ? Or is this just another media story I should ignore?

I'm with Flin, did my name just get thrown around for some odd reason? lol

[Talon]

My posts about BD's situation are all just my own griefs nothing against him.  Hell you can blame me for giving Thomas 16.5


I'll never be pissy in the OOC, its all a game and if it becomes too much like efedding where its all pissy attitudes, then its time to move to a new game.


Just my thoughts on it.

[Mike Powers]

1 - Franchise!!!  Noooooooo!!!!!! Damn bro, that sucks.

2 - BD, told you so.

3 - Flins and Alex I think your names were just used as 1st year GMs without much tenure for that news story. Unless you hear something attributed to a named source, don't put too much stock in it.

[Jennifer]

Isn't alex 0-4?

[GM Franchise]

Isn't alex 0-4?

Yeah that likely is a factor why his name was in there.

[Domingo]

Just to clarify,  I'm not pissed at BD, or angry about what happened. I'm just giving my ooc opinion on a situation that effects not only the game itself but BD's team as a whole. I'm here to play the game and try and figure out a way to have a successful team that can win championships. I'm going to do that regardless of what happens on someone else's team, and like Strike said it has happened before and will more than likely happen again. Some of us will hold our team together, while others jump ship because they can't figure out how to make things work. It's the nature of the game, but if I have an opinion on it I'm going to give it.

[Black Death]

Alex your team has not won a game

Flins , your team has been up and down ... the Lincoln thing andmaybe moving Lucic to SG  might not have work out ... Bears are use to winning under jag and you are being judge by his standards



the comments on the occ don't bother me ... I am cool with everyone ...  it what we been doing since it started and it not going to change.  I just happen to be the focus this time
