View Full Version : There is always one, but this owner stands Exposed to the World

There is always one, but this owner goes over "One Flew Over the Koocoos Nest".
Remember as students in middle and high school and, you would study, do your homework, and prepare for a exam? Part way thru you test, you noticed wandering eyes from a classmate seated just off center from you, glaring at your answers. As you completed your 1 hour test, numerous times that same classmate would position himself in an angle to get your answers. The results would come back and you would get a grade of A and a score of 95. You find out the peeping "Tom" got exactly the same score. The difference is, the classmate took the easy way out as he missed time from class, didn’t turn in homework, didn’t participate in class, and had a GPA of under 2.0 in the last 3 years.
Well, in our league, that same type of person is masquerading as a coach/GM, apparently alive and well, mimicking most of my UFA selections and targeting almost all Practice squad players for 2 months now. If he had to select a player on his own, he would be drawing straws with absolutely no clue who to take. Its obvious if you look at the pattern and habits of this owner, who it is. I thought i would just shine a little light on this owner so he didnt go unnoticed. In fact, he does it to other teams as well in our league as he waits for others to make a UFA selection, then reacts.
Ive never seen another owner use this warped strategy consistently in any fantasy football league in the 22 years I have been playing. When its time for him to succeed in EFS, I guarantee he will fail as he has in the past.

I can't figure out which team you are referring too. Please clarify?
Is it the same team you tried to have kicked out of the league and then had to publicly appologize to in order to keep yourself from being kicked out of the league? Perhaps this is a little payback.
You could always trick try to trick the team by bidding on players that you really don't want knowing that the sorry, no talent team will then outbid you and then the joke would bo on that team. If I were you, I would try that.

This time im not going to get involved going back and forth with you. My time is more valuable than that. I made my point and now its time to focus on winning my next game this week vs the Dropouts. lm looking forward to winning big and moving to who I play next week. You have not beaten me in what is now the start of the third year. Usually your down by 100 points before you get off the bus.

You have a decent team and you might beat me. However, I have out scored you 2 or the last 3 weeks.
Good luck.

No sooner than i request another DB you never heard of and who you had no intention of going after, you go ahead and mimic still another player i go after as a UFA just as expected. You cant be taken seriously by anyone and its becoming comical

You tried to have me kicked out of the league. For that, I will do anything I can (within the rules) to irritate you and I will continue to do so. If you would not make such a big deal out of it I would probably get tired of doing it and stop but your rants just make me want to do it more. It’s really funny.
You are at least twice as smart as any other owner in this league so I am sure you can find a way (within the rules, of course) to counter-act what I am doing. If you can’t, that might indicate you are not as smart as you think you are.
Why don’t you quite complaining and just implement your superior strategy?

A rather easy win this week vs Dropouts, which now makes me 7-0 since 2005 against your teams. Why am I not surprised? I look forward to bouncing you 2 more times this season. Don’t hesitate to stop by, its always a pleasure

Your team is incredible! I really never had a chance. I am sure my team will NEVER beat your team. NEVER!
I am not playing to be #1. My goal is simply to be the #2 team in the league. None of the other teams will ever be able to match your skill level.
If you could find the time, perhaps you could make a weekly post giving all of us advice on how to run our teams. I am sure we could all use the help. Many of us would probably be willing to pay you for your advice.
You are the true stud of FF.
I dont know what some people are talking about but I post my team each week. What I do is duplicate my who i had last week and then change one or two people I see fit.

Maybe I am mistaken but didn't you just purchase this team a couple of months ago?

What happened? My one and only RB had a off week. I thought I had no chance at all against your incredible team.

You had your best game that i can remember and it looks like you will break 450 points after tonight's game. Huge games from T Owens, T Gonzalez, solid performances from QB Palmer, TE Witten but what elevated the point level was LB P Willis, DL Dockett, Ware, and 2 Clev Brown OL. If you make enough defensive plays from front seven(sacks, pass def, tackles, FR,) those plays will yield a higher return even if the RB, K, DB positions are a non factor or minimal in production.
My dilema is i cant fit RB A Petersen into my lineup most weeks with LT & W Parker, his 74 pts on the bench Sunday probably was the difference.
You always had the WR and LB but with addition of QB C Palmer, LB P Willis, and DL D Dockett and 2 Clev Brown OL, its a competitive team now.
Congratulations on a big win
