I'll tell you one thing though, this series has some bad blood. *Cue Taylor Swift*

That's the part I don't understand. I don't rank them base don anything but TPE during the season, but once the mock draft comes it comes down to Team, Team Need, Positions, Past Players Success, GM/Player relationship and a couple other things. In DT's case I'm not even sure where he is coming from. He has made jokes about his players retiring early in the past as he joins in with several others but once I make a comment about that in how he drops he gets upset. Not to mention if a player is doing welfare, you are damn right he won't be ranked higher than a player that is doing PT's. It's simple facts guys and its not like I'm going on this with day old material, I've been here from the start and noticed trends. I'm not saying I'm correct in shape or form when I do these, but I don't just throw paint at a wall and call it a masterpiece either. What I struggle to realize is this: Anyone that is upset by a comment or feels they were wrongly placed, prove me wrong. Doughty, Kronos and many others have done their damn hardest to be at the top of the rankings and by getting upset over your grade or placement you are effectively telling me that those players are useless.

I know you big grizzly bear!

Oh it was in relation to you being on the same team with that brotherly love you twinks got going on. Had nothing to do with drafting him or anything in the past, because that never happened. Just think maybe its time to shake the deadweight (your older brother) and face the music without him haha. Jokes, jokes.

That is true, I didn't check the tracker for that pick and forgot where it went. Seems everyone gets upset about these things, geesh

That monkey must be laughing right now.

Of course you are the only one who knows, never said otherwise. However, you aren't the one writing the rankings and I can only go off of past experiences. Every time you recreate or create or whatever the first question is if you'll stick with it and it's usually not poised by myself. Who is to say you didn't do that to throw people off? Of course, but so then how is it my fault haha. If it's a stupid list then I guess you're arguing for the past couple hours means little anyways. If all GM's know that then they will draft accordingly. Not sure why this is such an insult to you, I mean it's a stupid list after all.

They really do though DT. It shows if you are willing to stick with a sim league player. What I said is a valid excuse man, I quit on those players because of GM roles. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that was the smart move. If there is no doubt, stop giving GM's doubt with the somewhat skeptical VHL Fan's or anything. Just earn TPE, tell them you'll be as active as ever and prove the rankings wrong. Not sure why if proving it wrong you had to get your word in. You hate the rankings/mock? Go out and shoot it down.

Yes you can, not like this mock draft is the be all end all. I'm not sure why you are upset when people in the VHL know about your history with players. Once you go outside and have player sin other sim leagues that they know about, they take that into effect. Why? Because retiring early for weird reasons means it might be a member issue and not the player itself. Why do employers ask for job resumes? Because they look to see your experience elsewhere and if it's shotty or not.

Yes but you also have to factor in that you are in other sim leagues. I have quit on two players early, but do you know why? Because I accepted GM roles with Helsinki and Cologne so I somewhat had to quit on them. Why are you turning this on me? I haven't been suspect with players. Your TPE count now is great, but means little if you give them doubt ("them" being GM's). Your reactions to this are exactly the whole "stir" things up that I'm talking about as well. I actually have nothing against you, like I said that's just something in your mind because your mind is a very confusing place it seems. You can't honestly think your record in sim leagues is spot clean, can you?

I'm confused though, how am I using an excuse? I have nothing against you, that is simply in your mind. However, you always get mad when I say that GM's have noticed your inability to stick with a player or even be happy with their production. You generally seem confused at the notion that you straight up are not as desirable as you imagine. Do I think you're worth a 5th overall pick? Sure. Do I take into effect some other variables when it comes to placement? Yes, very much so. I just don't understand where you think you are looked at much like the other prospects. You have quit on players before and caused stirs, that's not myself who has something against you. That's you who has some hidden belief that you're coveted more simply because you are not a first generation player. Honestly as I do these rankings and have done them over the years I hope every prospect exceeds my expectations and really don't have anything against one prospect. If I did have something against them the entire piece would seem forced and really make it suck. I basically give my opinion based on what the draftee has shown me and any prior trend with a player they have had.

Snub.bed from what?

TPE whoring only put you at #5 though, with the added news of uncertainty surrounding your player it bumps you down. You are such a strange person though because you always have a hard time when rankings list you lower, yet you always end up retiring early or being unhappy with your player. You can't honestly tell me you think you deserve to be higher? It's so mind boggling that it has come to the point where I wonder if you even know what you want to do when you create. Just know that "a nice little relax" is the difference between 5th overall and 10th overall.

When did I say you were unsure of keeping your prospect? I think you need to re-read it again. I merely pointed out that your player would be going down a different route in regards to TPE possibly. Hardly something I'd take you as surprised for.

Oh yeah those were risky and I knew that if I was wrong someone might have said I jinxed a team, but I don't care cause I got bounced from the playoffs haha

Not at all, you're just being a fairy boy.

Why's that? Those are just guesses on what I've heard.

Nope, he was strictly placed on the roster. Auto-drafted would have been if Quebec had to use a draft pick to select him regardless of being the GM or not.
