A non issue? He kept $100 million worth of talent that should not have been playing for the team. I don't follow you. I am just gald I play in a league where fair play is top priority and I don't have to suffer this. Pretty laughable that a commish lets a GM play $100 over cap. The more I think about it the worse I actually think it is.
When you took Cheyenne in CyFL as Grave Digger and I didn't know you were Nick, then you traded for that QB and got no votes to be a bowl participant (and lets be honest, you would have if everyone knew you were Nick), I was pretty mad, but I got over it.

So you are saying I should spell out who I am before I am allowed to play? I can't see why. That said Firefly knew as did a few others. I go under multiple aliases. I guess I enjoy having a fresh start. I don't see why I should be treated differently to everyone else. I don't use any outside programs. I don't even use DA. It is just me and the game.

When Bode is putting up his money, and knowledge of it being you would affect that, sure, I would say it should have been stuffed down our throat that it was you.

Maybe from your perspective. From mine I want to be treated as an equal. Not penalised because I have played the game well.

Point is, everyone needs to quit overreacting to things that they don't agree with.
I like you Nick, and just because you did something I don't agree with doesn't mean I hate you. I think a lot of people hate Ben and it brings a lot of irrational witch hunts aimed at him. Some warranted, some not.

I don't many avenues of competition where the prize pot is less for better players lol.
I had 20 odd players voting for me, $100 if I won it all. Other players get $2000. How is that fair? I built a good team and fucked because of it. Most people are in the league for the money because it is not friends, a total conflict of personalities.
Some guy allowed to play by his own rules. No different if I sold my QB for cash. Hey, it isn't in the rules that I can't. Firefly is a good guy but the league is mess. People just hanging on to grab some cash. Needs differently total overhaul IMO.
I accept your point on Ben. But you have to consider he has been talking down to people for well over 10 years now. You think he will talk like that face to face in a bar? I don't.
Secondly it is repeat offending. In isolation you could go easy. But when he keeps rule bending upsetting people and disrupting leagues people are going to flip.
In the real world Ben would of been put in his place. People are frustrated because it isn't so easy in in this circumstance.
I think we are dealing with a guy who has little power in the real world so rides what he has in FOF land for all it is worth. Normal people without issues don't act the way he does.
