I thought of that. That would have been much worse. But he hadn't exhausted his alternatives. How about this:

Thread Title: Dakar is Staying in WL

Thread Post: The league and conference champs of APL are gutting and/or rebuilding. The teams under them declined to fill their spots (what, are they chicken?) so APL is going to keep Dakar as their rep for season 13.

Well that wouldn't have created much offseason topic...

Yea, apparently the APL people are wusses and sensitive babies as well. None even have the stones to stand up to bort by quitting. Hell, rj of Spicewood Longhorns felt that bort called him out by saying in a mod forum something insinuating that he wouldn't quit or something like that after rj repeatedly threatened to quit like he was bigger than the game. RJ gutted spicewood like 2 days later and he was a successful USAPL team back in season 7 or 8 whenever it happened. While i was disappointed he got too emotionally wrapped up in what bort said (pretty immature) i respected he actually went through with it unlike all the other people who say stuff like that

It would have opened the door for WL to slaughter APL in the forum, but it wouldn't have been under Bort's sanction. I'm fine with APL getting slaughtered - if its my peers doing it. I'm not OK getting slaughtered by the guy I've paid bucks to who has the authority to yank me out of the game.

I would take it as a challenge. APL needs to step their game up. Bort's only really trying to help your region.

And it happened right after they played the Wolfpack. Coincidence? You decide.

The last thing anyone should do is quit over something that will blow over in a day or two. Now that would be stupid.

Last thing anyone should do is get so offended by something that would have blown over in a day or two. I didn't think much of the comments at all and didn't even take it as an insult to the league until the apl people started getting so seriously upset by it. Now they are the ones who kinda put the league in a really bad light. It's a shame because i don't think anyone on wl would've cared or thought much differently about apl in a few days if they if they just ignored it. But alas. Here we are. Now APL will have the reputation of being a league of poor quality (terrible WL track record) and wusses. They brought it upon themselves which is the saddest part

Really though, SLAUGHTER? It's not that serious. It's a harmless comment made mostly in jest.
