No matter the age difference, I'm still eternally the annoying little sibling to everyone who knows me.

What I suggested about slm not being fully informed turned out to be irrelevant because HO did intervene and replaced TMM as GM. The problem I have is his interactions trashing the yeti, and players, not that he was making uninformed decisions.

Bringing up how I handled something in the past even if it was hypocritical doesn't invalidate what I am saying. Ironic, maybe.

The bottom line is I do not like how slm interacts with other players especially given his position of power. I've stated this consistently for a long time. It was my number one concern when he was first brought on to HO coming in and it is still a concern of mine which I included in my retirement post months ago.

When I happened upon this current thread, I was tired of seeing it and decided to say something.

In regards to the above incident:

Sure, I probably handled that situation wrong and I don't really care if you find my jokes funny.
I had strengths and weaknesses as HO but this probably was one of the things I didn't get right.

I am no longer head office so it's probably a moot point. I read through it again and don't think my posts were completely off base. I was pissed because it hurt the league that I cared about. Hopefully I've done more good than harm.

Im only coming back as a douche now because i dont really care anymore, what punishment is there if a shitstain like you can act the way you have in the past. And of course your former gms will say you're wonderful, as will my entire team. Big surprise that GMs don't wanna act like douchebags. Can't wait to hear back from you ya waste of a creampie

You obviously do care you waste of space. You talk, act, and GM'd like shit. You wanna spew insults like a 5 year old playing call of duty but that's probably the intelligence level you possess so I shouldn't expect more. Yea I was such a shitstain, the way I trash talked. It fills me with joy to see you so salty that I'm twice the sim league user you ever dreamed of being.

Also, to end the current argument:
Both Asipi and SS are assholes.

On the other hand, they have both contributed pretty well to the league.

It doesn't change that they're both assholes, but I feel like this is very much an argument between two very similar people that will just go nowhere.

You can ask SLM.

He was good as a GM and he has been very helpful as an HO member Smile

When we engaged further in those talks Micycle McCormick operation already happened so adding me in QB role would only add dead weight to the budget. We ended talks in good mood, while I didn't decide to join them I certainly know more about the team and respect them. Hopefully, a least once we'll meet in the Ultimus Finals if so it happens that my career doesn't drive me to play for Colorado one day.

I also dislike bashing on teams, it is just pushing your own agenda that way (without any good will like offering advice for them to improve, not saying this is the case, but I've heard far to many times opinions about dead LR, without trying to fix that, not even in the case of Yeti) whether private or public and it's often an automatic no-no for me to go to the location that engages in such practices.

On the other hand, Applehort had full right to free agency and exercised them, nobody denied him that. But to not expect backslash after leaving the team dry he was part of management in the past, even more so to the team that is current favorite, juggernaut, and long-time conference rival? The negative reaction happens in real sports too and is rather cool and fun part of having underdog mentality and basic need for the feel-good story.
It's always easier to leave for greener pastures than stay, focus and build something up from past failures if you want to achieve personal success and collect accolades. Don't expect sympathy that way from any other team than the one you decided to join, just think how weird that would be?

McCormick had paid for the switch, but he didn't have to stay QB. He hadn't been updated yet, so any position was on the table. Had he wished, he could and still can move to another position, though now that you are signed I am sure it is moot.

Also, while I was in SA, I made multiple attempts to help out the Yeti regarding Applehort's usage. My DSFL GM, Ramero, was on the Yeti, and just as I was constantly in his ear about our strats, I would give him tips for Colorado as well. Naturally, I don't know if he mentioned them to his team or not. However, I have tried to help and watched the lack of improvement before knocking them.

I wasn't aware that I dreamed of being a sim user, but no I would never wanna be a sad seed of life like you. As for me being a shitty gm? I don't believe I was horrible because I had to learn from TMM, most the draft picks I made were actually good at the time it's not my fault they had irl issues that pulled them away. But man really putting on your big boy pants to call me out on how I was as a gm, because your tenure isn't really that impressive...

Sad seed of life? Stop talking to a mirror. I'm having a great life, sim league and in real life. I can't say the same about you. Now I'll stop responding because I don't want to be charged with child abuse.

I'm not. You're absolutely right and if indeed you've come around to the correct side I'm glad. If people on the Yeti who are familiar with the situation say that it wasn't mismanagement that led to Daybe leaving in free agency people who don't have any idea shouldn't say "hmm I think you're wrong there buddy."

It was just hilarious to me to see you take such a different view in this thread than you did during the mass retirement.
