To most of Oceania for being an ass lately. Several owners and players I unnecessarily jumped on, and it was wrong of me. I apologize.

I am going to drop the "collusion" argument, and leave it be. From where I sit atop a mountain of physical evidence Billyvassi is a liar and at best Catspaw27 is an idiot (at worst a cheater). However, I should not have allowed my opinions and extrapolations of the facts to carry on for as long as they have, and in the manner they have.

To Oceania: (with the obvious exclusions of Billy and Cats) I am sorry.

The good news is that there is drama in all the leagues. If you just click around a bit you'll see that each of them have their own. The way I look at it is that at least you can't really 'cheat' at this game. Sure lopsided trading and conspiring with other teams about tactics might be underhanded, but in the end you still have to BEAT those players on the field. If anything it adds a realism to the game. Take the Patriots in the NFL. More money, better players, and they still got caught video taping signals of opposing teams from the sidelines. Doesn't matter where you go you're going to have some kind of loop whole 'tactical advantage' built into the system. It's just a matter of ethics and how far you're willing to step over a grey line. No one lives by the same morale compass and that's just life. Live it, love it, and move on.

So........ what's the gossip for next year? Who's getting traded? Who's getting fired as GM? Who's increasing stadium ticket prices? Do you know if they're starting a new ROID compaign to see who's packin on the pounds? I swear my trainer said that the stuff I'm taking is supposed to cover up any signs of ROID use!

Apology accepted... as long as you stop replying in the "other thread" also.
Hopefully if it gets to only 2 people posting it will die like it should.

I'm sorry that you are sorry.

Dude, I would prefer that you come back as a total ass and play a competitive game against the Bandits. All the other peripheral BS means nothing, it's how you play. And whether you want to admit it or not, with the Bandits finishing the season with the most wins in the league we are good.

So in all honesty I don't think you are an ass. The guy who owns the Aussie Cardinals (and 3 other teams, thereby shutting 3 owners out) and treats his players like crap... now that's an ass.

You are a competitive owner, a passionate player and a vociferous voice of craziness, egging people on and creating chaos. That's not such a bad thing. It just makes it more fun to read.

Now go post in the Bandit Bashing thread some more. I have money riding on over 50 pages.

dont apologize for anything...i actually agree with a lot of the things that you said...but in the end this is a game....and there are so many other things in the real world that actually matter...no use in wasting so much effort on a game...you should have said your piece and left it at that....besides....i think everyone appreciates your weekly rankings....keep it up...

Well you don't need to apologize for bringing the issue up in the first place, because there was certainly reason to believe something fishy was going on there and collusion is something that needs to be brought to the leagues attention or nothing gets done about it. Trading a long inactive, worthless lvl 12 for an active lvl 12 is not a fair trade by any stretch of the imagination, and there was a conflict of interest between the two parties involved as well, so there's good reason to think that there was collusion going on and to bring that to everyone's attention.

That said, the issue has been rehashed to death now, if the admins don't think it's something that needs to be addressed there's nothing else to talk about anymore, so it's best just to let it go.

I am amazed when people comment about things they have zero knowledge about.

That level 12 HB is active again (happens all the time) and may come back to the Bandits next season. Your idea of "fair" is limited by the range of your information.
