http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=211358 (season 6)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/game.pl?game_id=289754 (season 7)

It doesn't matter if you beat us and don't do anything with it, now does it?



How can you claim to be the better team when you haven't beat us in 3 seasons?

Surely you realize how dumb that sounds, right?

I guess, but when it comes to ranking teams, its all outsiders perspective anyhow. If I'm not on the list, it's fine with me, because I know I'm doing something right....whether others know it? I don't care

False.

I became a mod before S3. I was referring to when I bought Dryden and recruited from scratch, in S1, way before I was ever a moderator. Also, I was in AAA at the time.

Certainly didn't help you network with the other mods and their high level players, right?

False. See above.

Also, the only mod who has ever had a player on Dryden is made. A LB for about a season, and his WR this season. I've known Serenity since before GLB (and she wasn't a mod when she brought players over).

Your high level players on the Pushovers certainly didn't help you network either, right?

False. Most of the people on the Pushovers hated CPL and all the bullshit in the forums. The only Pushover player to join Dryden was, again, madet0order.

Also, all of that was after the initial recruiting was done for Dryden (in S1). I didn't have a network back then, I pounded the FA forums for three straight days and built a team.

Other than those 3-4 really HUGE things I mentioned, you really didn't have any extra advantages at all.

Considering those things you mentioned are categorically untrue, I guess that means I'm just better at dotball than you.

Can we end the pissing contest Asheme?

It's not really a pissing contest, just me correcting your factual mistakes.

So if you don't get in early and buy a ton of high level players (see Asheme), then this game is very different for everyone else. We just can't keep status quo. Our roster is 80%+ different than it was in season 2. We had no shot at a playoff exploit like you. I had to build my team from the ground up and upgrade 1 or 2 levels at a time.

Nope. We bought our teams at roughly the same time, and I recruited an entire team from scratch. I didn't know anyone on Dryden before I recruited them. And, for the first two seasons, our team was made up of a lot of non-boosters, and for the seasons 2-3, we were actually at a level disadvantage behind teams like Dong/Nigerian/CCC.

Oh, and they were all level 1-4 (early boosters) when I recruited them.

I'm sure you don't think your mod title helped you any right?

Certainly didn't help you network with the other mods and their high level players, right?

And your sending your players to other top teams to network with them is a great strategy. I'll give you that. It worked well for guys like Jrry also, who now has links to all the top teams and top players from having played on all of them. If he ever got a team again, recruiting would be easy.

Not everyone has high level players that they can scatter to the best teams though. Very few players in the game were mods.

Asheme received and built the team in season 1, he wasn't made a mod until late season 2 or early season 3...you are reaching. BTW, I have a team SI...even with spending a ton of time planning so I wouldn't have to recruit...I lost players and still had to. And I had to recruit just like everyone else. As usual, speaking out of your ass. Has it ever occured to you that maybe just maybe I have links to so many top teams because I am a likeable guy and never put all MY players on my team even when I had an uncapped team? Maybe if you hadn't put all your high level players on the Beans, you would have had the same connections. And I know, next comes the sob story about how hard recruiting was...then I'll call bullshit which will lead to you making a snide comment about how I don't own my Pro Team anymore because I couldn't "cut" it or something about me being a cheater because I owned 2 teams...blah blah blah.




I remember when you didn't have any players in USA Pro and always hung around and kissed everyone's ass. I remember many people hated you and wondered why you even came to the forum without a player.

I also remember that when you got perma banned from the forum that most people were happy and said you got what you deserved (even though Bort let you back in).

And you are right - you have NO ROOM TO TALK shit on my team when your team could barely even have a winning season in a very weak league at the time.

Weird claim to make from someone who has lost the last 3 to the Beans.

Can you say delusional?? lol

HERE IS HOW I WOULD RANK THE TOP FRANCHISES - NOT IN TERMS OF WINS/LOSSES ENTIRELY, BUT HOW THEY ARE RUN, AND THEIR CHANCES OF FUTURE SUCCESS GIVEN THEIR OPERATING MODEL:


1.) Adriana Lima Beans - SI was one of the first to decide to offer Flex Point laden contracts to improve the team. SI also specifically targeted the most glaring lolexploits in the game and made no qualms about using them extensively. He used the "most active, not-so-out-of-the-closet dot in GLB" claim to scare away many top prospects in the past. While no longer the most annoying owner any longer, he is still very active in the rainbow community. Certainly not near the top in terms of trophies either (0), but this team is certainly near the top of THINKING they are the best and that everyone who beats him just happens to cheat in some fashion or other. In terms of bringing excitement to the game, SI is like GLB on xanax.. Love the Beans (PLEASE! ACCEPT ME!!) or hate them (OH NOOOO!!! More anti-depressants!!!), people are dispassionate about this team one way or the other. SI's calculating of every SP of the team demonstrates his micro-management tendencies and paranoia and has led to many battles with all the Drug-indused, ill-informed, and regretful players he brought in. SI's cocky/arrogant persona has led to an image problem for the owner and team at times for sure though (admitting you have a problem is the first step towards recovery). Word is that he dresses real nice and makes the girls all cry. They think he's hot, they think he's fly. But he just says "I'm just looking for a guy."

2-?? No one else can compare to SI, so why try?



fyp


someone is really jealous for some reason.

maybe start your own list if you want to be an attention whore like me??


and this list is my opinion? How can you say my opinion is wrong? Are you really crying because I ranked you 7 instead of 3? Do those couple spots cost you millions of dollars? Did your girlfriend leave you because your ranking wasn't high enough?

Seriously.......how does my list butthurt you so bad that you feel the need to come and trash me in every thread I start?

OMG that's so funny. I think it may have been funnier than when my 95 year old step dad said it to numerous other things.
