10 Things I Care Little For
I haven't been around as much as I would have liked (due to a variety of reasons), however from what I've seen (and not seen), heres a list of 10 things I care little for in PWW. Also, is Will even a GM? Oh, and Spencer FTW.
Anyway, onto the list...
1. Scott v Ducky
The trade that Ducky 'backed out of' was hilarious. Good reading. Scotts irrationality was laughable. If someone sends you a trade proposal via PM, you don't just post it up. You accept it, send a PM back and then move onto posting it. Even then, Ducky technically still has the right to decline the trade if he doesn't post otherwise in the completed trade thread. Every single GM in the whole league agreed that Ducky was not in the wrong...except for Scott. Sometimes he can be compassionate (very rarely), but most of the time, he is a dick. "Lol except hell no" was Ducky's comical reply to the thread incase you were wondering, very nice, gave me a bit of a laugh. Also bl on the fact that the league is called Prestige World Wide rofl. James 1-0 Scott.
2. Seeing New York (Outlawz) on top...again...
Seriously, go as someone else. It pisses me off that whenever I check the standings, you and your Knicks are always top of the East. It actually and legitimately annoys me. Say you can level my amount of annoyance in numerical form at any given form in a 'annoy barometer', and it was on 3/10 today when I woke up, and I get into work via the train (level moves up to 3.5/10) and then I click on standings and I see '1. New York Knicks', my annoy-barometer actually goes up by .1 to 3.6/10. So your winning and or team selection physically effects me in my day to day life. Heinous.
3. Will posting pictures of a girl naked and blindfolded and my dad walking in...
Lol, I was at home casually browsing the off-topic section and I click on Wills fantasy thread, scroll down and get to this picture of a girl naked and blindfolded doing terrible things to herself. I go to pick up and drink my cup of tea (for what its worth or, 'fwiw', my tea cup is an English Football cup with the 3 Lions on it) and my dad walks in the room and just kind of pauses. "....dinners ready...". Rofl he thinks I'm a freak.
4. The marketability of the Orlando Magic...
Wow, they have no one. The only likeable player on their entire roster is David Lee. Emeka Okafor sucks and is boring. Jason Smith has potential I guess, but isn't really playing. Semih Erden is a joke in himself. Ike Diogu was suppose to be good but isn't. Eduard Najera is fucking Mexican... Jamario Moon is athletic but thats all. Julian Wright is okay I guess but is performing an "Andy" or a "Houdini" this season ala performing a disappearing act in 30 minutes of action. Rob Kurz, wtf? Ben Gordon, decent player, but his height/position battle is annoying. Thabo Sefolosha is likeable I guess but frustrating at the same time. Chris Duhon, Jeff McInnis and Aaron Brooks all suck equally as much as each other. I didn't know who their GM was either, I was kind of hoping it was Maniac so I had a reason to lay shit on him but it's...Mark. I have nothing.
5. The Green Room being called the Green Room and not the Fucking Catalina Wine Mixer...
How fucking sweet would it be if you went to the Catalina fucking Wine Mixer to check up on scouting information? Instead, we just visit the "Green Room". I was so disapointed when I saw this, I was seriously hoping for something different.
6. The back-lash Footy received during the draft...
His team is really good! Amare is playing like a top 5 pick right now (when Footy was critisised for taking him 7th) His team, financially, is very close to the hard cap but will recieve instand cap-relief (and hand relief from Samantha) at the end of the season. Nash/AI/Artest/Amare/Dally or Miller is freaking sweet. I think if he can get his tactics right they will challenge for the title.
7. David Harrison, Paul Millsap, Carmelo Anthony and no front court = 24-16 in the West...
These 3 guys alone with absolutely NO front court to speak of have helped New Orleans to a 24-16 record in the Western Conference. For the record, their front court consists of Yakhouba freaking Diwara, Sonny bloody Weems, Sun chung Yue, Kyle Lowry and Jarvis Crittenton. The last 2 guys are actually decent and not embarrassing which is why I didn't throw a derogatory in between their first and surnames.
8. Dwight Howards statistics...
17.2ppg (44%), 2.7apg, 1.8bpg, 2.8tpg. Chris Bosh >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dwight Howard. Done. Maybe he is underperforming because Hype freaking sucks. I don't know. Btw, Spencer >>>>>>>>>>>> Hype.
9. Chat threads other than the Footy and James Chat Thread...
Seriously, do not try. The worst or most rofl worthy was the Brit Chat thread. The James and Maniac Chat thread was okay, but the Houdini and League Chat thread was very poor IMO.
10. The message board colours...
Can someone change them to the default ones...or make a skin which looks really similar to an Excel spread sheet? It's harder than ever for me to browse the forums at work anymore because the bright blue is way to colourful and stands out to much in the Accountants office I work in...
