    I like hearing and seeing that stuff it's just your articles were done with a really fine tooth comb.  I think if it was done with a broad brush only talking about the biggest names and biggest trades throughout history it would be more interesting.

    When Klose decided to join us early on in F.A. and we got Jardy via trade I thought maybe just maybe this could be our season.  Unfortunately no one else saw it that way in free agency as players left and "kept us on the list" right until the end when they didn't join us.  Can't complain though we technically beat Calgary during the regular season and if they didn't have the deadline trade we likely would have beaten them.
     
    Der Meister I know it wasn't the season you wanted or the end result we all wanted but I do really apprieciate you signing with us.  With Riga I had an awful FA track record and without you we wouldn't have even made it this far.  It meant a lot to me that you did sign with us and I'm sure the rest of the team feels the same way.
     
    Moving forward though Clegane, Nuck, Mengsk, Muller, Rose, Skovgaard, and Hamilton all 7 of us continue to get better.  None of us are at depreciation this upcoming year or for several after that.  We hold the 5th overall pick in a draft filled with VHL ready prospects at the top.  Calgary is one of a few teams looking to trade off their players so we can really go for a cup win next season.  We need another center and I've already been in talks with Eagles for his 700 TPE undepreciated player.  We'll see if theres any free agents available and we'll be aggressively looking to move up from #5 to draft Unassisted STZs player.

    We did it guys 7 game losing streak to end the season we lulled the whole league into a false sense of security and saved all our sim luck for the playoffs.  Really happy about our season though surprised the league we technically beat Calgary by 1 win so we are better despite same point total in the eyes of the sim.  Worst case scenario we get knocked out in the first round and end up with the 5th overall pick getting another great prospect for our team.  Best case scenario we show the VHL whats up and win a Continental Cup out of no where and go on a 3 cup win run.  We have the most depth and its playoff time anything can happen.  I'll make us Kung Foo sigs tomorrow.

    It has been 9 days since my last post and 19 since my original post.  My first weigh in 19 days ago 265 pounds and 9 days ago I was at 262.  I'm happy to say after another 9 days I just weighed myself at 259 down another 3.  In the past I would try to trick my weight and do it in the morning after going to bathroom in nothing but say boxers.  This weigh in was mid day after snacking and just drinking a glass of water while wearing clothes.
     
    Still continuing to use my bowflex machine in fact my left shoulder is pretty sore today after a bit of a heavier workout yesterday.  I'm very close to going down the next notch in my belt and can physically feel my pants being looser than 19 days ago.  One of the girls I work with even said something to me about looking like I've lost weight without even telling her I was making any sort of changes.
     
    I have cheated a few times KFC last weekend and Taco Bell on Monday or Tuesday.  With the super bowl coming up I expect a long weekend of pigging out so my goal in another 10 days or so is to maintain or go down another pound and I'll be happy.  Also about to go get a Shamrock Shake because they are back a large is like 850 calories and 150g of sugar better stick with a small.

    Its been 10 days since my initial weight (265) and post here.  Since then I've gone to the store and bought healthy foods salad, misc veggies, brown rice, healthy cereal (high fiber/protein low sugar), only meat I've bought was chicken, and other good foods.  I'm currently trying to workout on the Bowflex 3 days a week and my weight as of right now 262 (-3).  I know it fluctuates greatly from day to day so we'll see how it goes in another 10 or so days.

    I was willing to part with late 2nd or any number of 3rd round picks but there isn't really much out there.  If we did bring any of the depreciated players in it would only be to replace minutes of Hines/Deschamps and they already get reduced minutes anyway.
     
    The quest for a VHL cup will rest on our shoulders alone as we try to carry Jardy past round one.

    Mike got a reaction from DollarAndADream in Claimed:New All Star Game or BOG Conspiracy [Reviewed]   
    For a long time the VHL 1% (Board of Governors) have secretly run this league from the shadows.  Like the stone masons (it’s possible they are the stone masons) I can’t help but feel some sort of Da Vinci Code conspiracies is afoot.  They operate in hidden forums without oversight and make changes to the VHL without a moment’s notice having no regard for the rest of the league.  Their latest proclamation might have gone too far disbanding the all-star game.
     
    A long-time fan favorite and popular VHL event the All Star game has been destroyed.  An event previously held to commemorate the best the VHL has to offer has been butchered.  In the past this beloved event was voted upon by fans and players to reward the elite players.  This off-season event was held with such regard that not once has a VHL player declined to participate.  Compare that to the NFL where this past Pro Bowl saw a 7th alternate participate due to others refusing to play.  The BOG didn’t like this populous approach and have taken all of the power once again for themselves.
     
    The new rules will put two assigned puppets in charge of the teams.  No surprise to anyone the captains selected this year were from their own.  Elite 1%er’s Sterling and Phil who basically are founding members of the 1% class.  These “captains” (puppets) draft their team and shockingly enough the list is provided by you guessed it the BOG.  So instead of a mighty contest putting the VHL best head to head we have a bunch of scrubs.  They selected other members who are part of this 1% club it’s like one big circle jerk of the popular kids.
     
    Agents like Green, Boom, Kendrick, Boubabi, Yeah!, CoachReilly, Draper, Tfong, Streetlight, and CowboyInAmerica all had their players drafted in the first round.  Meanwhile the more deserving agents like Zero, Tim, Jardy, Der Meister, Ball, Boomcheck, Nuck, HF92, Scotty, and StevenStamkos91 all had their players denied.  Phil might even be the worst in this mess since his agencies player Phil Hamilton got placed on an All Star team without even being drafted.  For those interested the new All Star Game will be held this Saturday.  I for one won’t be taking part in the festivities since I don’t care to watch sup par hockey.
     

     
    If you would like to return the VHL All Star Game back to the people please sign the petition sent to President Obama.  If we get enough signatures the Whitehouse will be forced to respond.  Hopefully public pressure can bring change back to the game and give power to the people.  We will take this fight to the BOG and will not rest till the secret organization is no more.
