we have differing opinions then play. Yes my sliders shit was shady. But playing bad players when you're trying to lose is the nature of the beast in this league. Fucking with your roster so that players are tired or pitching way too often is something else. I play my best players always.

True, I did complain about that. Because it literally angers me.

i don't care that he sucks, it just bugs the shit out of me when he puts in his 2 cents when it comes to others when he sucks in the first place. Or when he gets this false sense of accomplishment. His expected time of arrival into the contention picture was like 2 seasons ago and he still fucking garbage, it's pathetic.

My opinion on this: I hate the idea of having to police everyone's teams and who they are starting. Play is a big proponent of not playing shitty players over good ones (or out of position) and he always has been. I promise you Break that you weren't targeted here, play is notorious for finding this stuff and pointing it out, which isn't a bad thing.
I don't like enforcing a punishment in these situations. When I ran FBB leagues, this shit was literally the most exhausting aspect and really sucks the fun out of it. From an integrity standpoint, I hate what you did here Break. It's ridiculous. If you manage to turn around your shitty team, I will remember this as one of the catalysts. If you're fine with that, cool, but I don't run my teams like this, and I don't think anyone should run their teams like this. My one big losing season where I went for a better pick, I signed the best available FAs including guys like Saito, Baerga, Sorrento, and Gilkey. I traded good guys like Valdes in hopes of losing more. I called up some guys that were "ready" according to OOTP but were bad, though there were no better options in remaining FAs.
At the end of the day, I don't support dropping break's pick, just because I feel like enforcing punishment on things like this gets out of hand and snowballs into constant finger-pointing. I do support break losing whatever credibility he had left in building a team here. It'll take a lot for my opinion to change on that.

For the record, Break and I don't have an 'agreement.' I told him to fix his rosters via PM and that I wouldn't say anything on the boards about it. Aka tried to keep it a private matter. I've never not said there wouldn't be some sort of punishment.

You need to get your shit together. I'm not saying anything on the boards, but you need to fix your roster. It's pretty blatant. Thanks.

Also, haven't heard a peep out of Waldo in some time. Mike may get promoted at the end of the season.

Well I stand by the fact I didn't break any rules but if you need to set an example than oh well. Sure I did something shady but it's been done in the past by other teams. I just can't get anything over because people are always looking to put one over on me.

No I'm just stating the truth. I know for a fact other teams have done it in the past to lose a few extra games but I was the first one someone was looking to go after about it enough to go looking.

I guarantee play points out anything to this extreme.
Play cares a lot about this kind of stuff happening.

Play would text me like multiple times cursing me out threatening to quit if someone was playing someone they shouldn't at PG, so I would know.
