By the way, there is no editing on your posts either please.

(Otherwise there's no way to keep track of whether anyone has cheated and changed his/her pick afterwards). :D

Uh, yeah, sure, thanks for the warning. I don't even know what a thread draft is. :rolleyes:

That's what you get for doing a thread draft. Not everyone can be online all the time, we have jobs that do NOT include computer access.

Sabre Ally
08-16-2003, 08:22 PM
Oh, and you know what really pisses me off? I took the day off work (which I can't really afford to do) in order to attend the live draft THAT HAD ALREADY BEEN SCHEDULED!! :mad:

Exactly. I had no ****ing power tonight and am trying to listen to the bills game. It just came back and now I gotta get ready for work. This thread draft is BS. I took off work for the live draft....this is ridiculous.

I don't like thread drafts either. I don't know why so many are so pushy about having one.

This thread draft won't even be done by next Sunday. For some reason I started the league but everybody else is trying to change things on the fly.

Seriously, how many of us are gonna be able to make it online to make their picks? We'd be lucky to have this thing done in 2 weeks.

I didn't even know there was going to be a thread draft until I saw this...the people organizing it could have at least PMd the players with the information. I would expect there are several people in this league that don't even know the draft has started.

Michael82
08-17-2003, 08:10 AM
Not just that....it should have been a league wide...or commisioner decision. I'm ready to pick...but at this rate, we wont be done until football starts...these are the WORST kind of drafts

Mr. Miyagi
08-17-2003, 08:10 AM
Personally I'd prefer a thread draft because I have young kids at home and it's extremely hard to find a chunk of time in front of the computer alone and peacefully without having them climbing all over me.

Unfortunately I can't "ask off" from my kids like some of you asked off from work.

Mr. Miyagi
08-17-2003, 08:25 AM
It wasn't my sole decision to do this thread draft, just so you know. But if the concensus is to go back to the live draft, I'm fine with that.

Typ0
08-17-2003, 10:06 AM
I don't care the thread draft is fine with me...but it would have been nice to at least been informed as to what we were doing especially since things changed.

Mr. Miyagi
08-17-2003, 10:12 AM
LOG was supposed to PM everyone....:rolleyes:

Michael82

Had you selected a draft time and datye before the sign up, I could have made an educated decision to sign up or not sign up. You started this thing in July!


While a thread draft may take some time, it is fairest of them all as far as giving people a shot at it. I don't see how giving everybody an equal shot at participating int he first few rounds.

Pissing and moaning about Vick getting hurt is lunacy. First off, no one picked him, , second- injuries are a part of the game.

Dozerdog
08-17-2003, 12:22 PM
Geesh!

It' not like we have to pick every player through a thread draft.

Try to get as much done before the Sept 1. After that, use a live or some other draft.

I can't change the draft date now. It's been up for almost a month, and people have taken off work for it.

If you can't make it I'll gladly send your money back and find a replacement or lower the teams.

This thread draft would never work and it's not fair to change the time. I can check and see if anything later in the day came, but as of a few weeks ago there were only morning drafts.

It doesn't take 10 hours to finish a draft if everybody is there. It would take 1.5 hours at the most.

OK....

This league was founded by BillsFever. I was in this to have fun. But I don't want anything to do with a guy that pulled the type of **** that myagi pulled with this thread. I want him thrown out of the league or you can return my 5000 zonebucks and someone else can take my spot. Myagi, this was a very rude thing that you did and very inappropriate. There are other people that are involved with these things too. This thing is a 17 week commitment and I don't even want to get into it with Myagi in the league.

Not good enough I want him thrown out of the league I refuse to play in a league with someone who demonstrates they are willing to do these types of things...

BillsFever
08-17-2003, 02:21 PM
I was open for a couple rounds to compensate for those who didn't wanna miss the first couple rounds, but there was no intentions of doing the ENTIRE thing in a thread.

I said it from the start that they don't work. This thing has been up all weekend and we have 2 picks in.

I know there was a short discussion but nothing was finalized. Just can't start a thread draft a little over a week before the real draft and expect everybody to make it.

I mean there are 14 owners in this league, and 11 of them had no idea about this.

It sucks if a couple people are unhappy, but it doesn't mean we can make the other 12 people unhappy because of it.

The sparks are flying now :lol:

Mr. Miyagi
08-17-2003, 02:30 PM
I don't know what is wrong with you. I just started this thread for the zonebucks, because I was led to believe that a thread draft was agreed upon. I didn't just go out and decide that I'd only draft this way. Please see this thread:

If you would open your eyes and read the posts above, I explained why I would prefer a thread draft but if the concensus was still to continue with the live draft, I'm fine with that.

If you still refuse to play, sayonara I say.

08-17-2003, 02:35 PM
Wrong Myagi...you were way out of line starting this thread. And if the people in this league want to play with you then let them I will not. You are a whiny baby because you can't make the draft...so you want to make everyone else suffer so you can get your way. There are what a dozen people in this league...well most of us fantasy football isn't the top priority in our lives and all 12 people are almost never going to be able to make a live draft. But the onus is on the people who can't make it to compensate and make adjustments not to adjust the league for the other 11 people in the league so they suffer for your benefit.


sayonara is a great word...see ya.

Once again, I will refuse to resort to immautre name-calling like you are. I never said I couldn't make the draft. I still can. And who are you to say that I'm way out of line? Are you my boss or my parent? I don't think so. Like I said, I started the thread because there seemed to be enough people saying we were going to do a thread draft so I thought I'd make some easy zonebucks. Now I found that this was the hardest way ever to make zonebucks.

I still don't understand why you suddenly singled me out and jumped on me like you did. Just because I started the thread? Was that it? Well perhaps you should listen when I explained why I did.

So are you going to walk the talk you did? I thought you were going to quit the league because you refuse to play with someone like me.

And one more thing, I would like an apology from you for the names you called me and your behavior. I think I did not deserve the treatment you gave me.

you got the treatment because you took it upon yourself to do something like this. I talked to several people over the last few days who were upset about this and didn't know what was going on. This is not your league and you were way out of line starting this thread. You are the one that should apologize to the other 11 people in this league not me for thrashing you it's something you brought on yourself.

I have filed an official complaint against you. Now look what you brought on yourself.

Just to spite you, I'm staying in this league for sure, because it'll make you look stupid for not being able to walk your own arrogant talk of "I refuse to play in the league with someone like that". And it'll make our match up that much more interesting as a rivalry.

OK I'll be the better man and officially apologize to the league for starting the draft thread completely out of greed. I was under the impression that it was agreed upon and I just wanted to make a quick buck. If I had caused any confusion, grief and disappointment, I am sorry. I did not mean to do so. :miyagi:

There were a couple brothers in my neighborhood growing up that used to do that when we played football.

If they wern't QB they didn't wanna play because they said we hit too hard. If you looked pussy up in the dictionary, their picture would've been there. They're cool now, but back then they were wimps.

When they insisted on being QB, then we would make the rule to start rushing the passer and beat the hell out of them. Then they would go home again.
