I could be wrong in saying this, and will probably end up getting flamed for it, but here goes. Nobody begrudges a team in this league that has done it the right way- the Rage last year, the Dictators this year, etc. We started off with the Dictators in BBB and they ran all over the league, beat us in the regular season and in the playoffs. And they talked plenty in the forums, but they NEVER came in and started talking about how no team would score on them, how they'd score 100 each game, and they weren't insufferable all season. As a matter of fact, if you ask any of the teams here that were in BBB 13 that first season, it was a helluva lot of fun. The Dictators won, with a themed team no less, because they planned for it, had good game plans and did their homework.
We moved up along with the Dictators last year, and as we got our ass kicked, they fought hard and almost got themselves promoted again. They recruited hard, and still had fun in the forums. Not that we didn't recruit hard and try to win, they just did a better job. The teams that got promoted last year were better, and the Dictators were GRACIOUS in defeat.
This season sucked before it started- the thread about how y'all were going to come in, own the league, etc, etc just started everything off on the wrong foot. More teams from BBB got promoted, my friend wrosmond's team being one of them, and we made an attempt to enjoy it. But it quickly turned into an entire season of how great the MB's are, how you wouldn't lose, how the rest of the league sucked, etc. As a reminder- you CHOSE to bring all of those players from an African Pro team over here, and then talked shit about how great you were- basically you admitted to trying to game the system and win another title.
Meantime, the Dictators kept winning, beating us and everybody else, and still being GRACIOUS while having fun. While some of your team seems to be ok in regards to posting, the main ones seem to take joy in being douchebags, and successfully getting others in the league to stoop to that level. Basically, you were quite successful in ruining the forum and the season for lots of owners. So when we see you lose, yeah, there is a bit of satisfaction to see you lose to a team that has done it the right way from day one. And then you can't be gracious about it and even admit that you got beat, instead it's excuses, excuses, excuses.
So here's the bottom line. Did you beat all the other teams? Yes. Have you been the least bit pleasant about any of it? No, you've basically been a bunch of assholes that nobody in the league cares for. I have a feeling that might be why you left Africa as well. So please, keep talking, keep making your excuses. You might win the title, but with the collusion stunt you pulled, you should. If you don't, you'll get promoted no doubt, and the Dictators will continue to beat your ass while you continue to whine. Meanwhile, the teams that try to do things right and enjoy the game just might have a season where we can enjoy ourselves again.
Win or lose, good riddance.
You make some very valid points, made better still coming from a non Dictator.
It is interesting how one or a few guys can just kill a forum and take all the fun out of it. I used to be quite active on the forums but its just not worth it here.
I hope that we can take it all this this year but if we do move up I hope the Bastards come with us so that we can continue the rape and you guys don't have to deal with em anymore.
