2074 Season Thread... Always Believe You Can(non)

[Graywolf357]

i'm open to all options!

lets talk about the PO glory days before you up and bailed on the family

Brings up the question of the original PO is the franchise I control now, does AJ talk about "my franchise" players or do I? Any OKC fans here know the answer to this?

we should trade franchises..... ill take your "history" and you take mine....current players come with me

I would have to take Montreals history

How many Championships all together?

[cougnix]

All of them

[D.P.R.K.Victory]

I erased previous post about rule 5. Mike found a way to run it and he is going to run the sim again with rule 5 done and he will protect guys who should be protected and sim to 1/8. Please make sure if you downloaded the file already that you download the newest one once Neurotic is finished. He is working on it now

Was just sitting here looking, thinking how in the world did every single guy I put on my list get protected. Some one always screws up

I had the same issue around 11/11:30 est last night. I got the file 202 upload error five or six times before it worked, and when it did work it look about 5 minutes to upload. I exported in my other two leagues also around the same time last night with no issues.

Jerry Winebrenner on making the HOF

[GeorgesGoons]

he will protect guys who should be protected

What does this mean? Best part about rule 5 is getting guys that should have been protected but owners fucked up and forgot.

[Neurotic]

What does this mean? Best part about rule 5 is getting guys that should have been protected but owners fucked up and forgot.

This is such a dog shit take. Thats not at all the purpose of Rule 5 and really shouldnt be encouraged.

Take it how you will. But if an owner isn't active with his team then screw them.

It's not the purpose but has been an unintended consequence of not paying attention. And being on both sides of that consequence I don't enjoy Rule 5, but it usually adds mtiple pages of immersion if someone gets screwed. That's what George enjoys...

[GeorgesGoons]

That's what George enjoys...

You know you enjoy it too....

Nothing better than an online meltdown from someone who didn't pay attention. Kinda like when San Fran messed up and got Luis Flores in Rule 5 and saving me $18m a year for 4 years.

[GeorgesGoons]

Looks like only 9 people voted for the HOF. 2 people left off Marino, Winey, and Ramirez, but they weren't the same 2 people for each.

[shel311]

Nothing better than that Cincy dude who would leave guys unprotected intentionally every season then get super mad when people would take the pretty darn good looking prospect from him.

He even admitted he was leaving them off to make room for other guys and didn't have enough 40 man spots but expected no one to take any of his eligible dudes.

That was...something.
