    wow...that was not who I was expecting to be taken with the 1st pick. Are you sure that's who you want CIN? I'll allow you to change it as long as it is before the next team picks...

    ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME?

    This draft needs to be restarted...that is the single worst move I have ever seen in OOTP, easily. I'm serious, this cannot be allowed to happen
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Calm down, man.

    It's his team, if he wants to draft the guy let him draft the guy.

    More power to those drafting ahead of him.

    And I have trouble calling it the single worst move in the history of OOTP when I'm stuck riding a 37 yr old injury prone 7-7-7 pitcher's 28 million dollar contract for one more year.

    Thanks again, redsr

    Oswalt wasn't a 37 year old injury prone 7-7-7 pitcher when he was signed...I'll just edit The Rock to be a better player to fix the problem...relax people.

    Edit: The Rock is now 9,8,8,9,8 for batter ratings and is a 5.0 spec.

    That pick better not be altered. He made his pick, he better live with his dumbass decision.

    Yeah, the ratings are clear as day... if someone wants to make a dumbass pick, they should live with it.

    Maybe I'm just saying that because I get the #2 pick in Round 2, and it benefits me with one extra beastly player still rockin out with his **** out on the board.

    I have to agree, unfortunately. We can't be helping out with stupid decisions, we already kind of do that with the TC, you can't run someone's team for them.

    It's really nice of prov to want to help him out, but I think that's a bit too much.

    I don't even like "Vader" but I took him and went with ratings more than a name

    2nd round maybe one of them will be there for me

    Yea and then if/when this guy bails, Cincinnati is even more unattractive than it already is. Do you know how many friggin' GMs that team has gone through? I'm not going to let that happen. Sorry. Bumping that player's ratings up did not alter the rest of the draft. Everything else stayed the same. So don't worry about it.

    If it happens again, I won't fix it, but I'm not going to have the #1 pick wasted considering this guy just took over and hasn't really sent changes since taking over. Are any of you going to pony up and find someone to replace him if/when he leaves? Oh, wait there are 2 openings now that no one has helped fill despite this league running nonstop and so on
