Discussion about Tanking

Because you're never around to tend to your team. You've been the same trick pony ever since you've been in the league. Stop being a stain or get the fuck out.

i always had a full bullpen in the past... i just had no lineup

Why would you post this? What is the difference? Both are neglected rosters with deliberate holes in them in an effort to achieve the !FIVE! consecutive, either #1 or #2 picks in the draft!

And Mission doesn't miss PMs, so don't imply that he didn't fill out your roster for you and you tried.

I never said he did, I said the players I wanted were already taken...

If i had a bullpen I might be 2 or 3 wins better cause the pitchers would all still be terrible FA scrubs... I'm working on it, its taking longer than I like cause I haven't had much luck with spec development (no better in HSL either), i'm working on it but I'm not going to spend 30 mil to finish in 4th to last... not my style

We can't punish new GMs because of what the last idiot did. However, we can hammer someone who's been losing 110+ games for several years in a row.

Take one of his prospects and give him to a new GM? Keeps the league talent the same, and sends a message.

Sends a message? I'm sorry specs die, I'm sorry I don't have a rag tag bullpen to distribute the 8.00 era around... i'm not sure what you want...

Why should I spend money to lose?

[Saber]

I want you to actually put together a team at some point. That's all I want. If you've only had a team for a season or two, then no worries, but if not, then something's wrong.

Sometimes that money is where you find pieces to build around. You get guys to fill the roster and at the deadline you shop em. Its not impossible to turn it around in 5 years.

At least have a full roster, you only have guys on the roster

Yea, I sent Mission some PM's so that'll be fixed

[Providence A's]

What else would he have on the roster? Girls? Apes? Fish?

If you have to be badgered in order for you to field a full roster, you have no business being a GM in a competitive OOTP league.

1) Its not as if I never did it... players were taken and I had the start of school and didn't see it
2) Why don't you learn how to manage the salary implications of one of your teams before you hop on the hating bandwagon... like its really easy when your the 12th person to pile on...

I'm sorry i didn't have a bullpen, my fault, want to take away a 2nd round pick as a warning fine, but it wasn't like I didn't ever try. Did I try enough? Prolly not but enough is enough... lets just get rolling

Tried this with Yacquet... and he's still on my roster cause no one will take him... if I can't trade him who can I trade?

Ohh and I'm not even on pace to have a top 3 pick this year...
