Lol at taking another shot at Haney. He does still seem to be the player I need and I, in fact, did recently inquire about him but was quickly shot down.

I really like the look of the media guide this season. The size is easier on my eyes. The artwork and content was great guys!

It's always nice to have your team described as "exceptional". As in, "Any team could win the Frontier, except El Paso"...

Pretty insulting that 'Valancia are clearly tanking' when in fact I tried to stay clear of tanking, going so far as before I make roster movements even asking if GMs felt it was a tanking move.

They lied.

Cairo is so bad it is impossible to tank.

That’s not what I meant, dude. If I meant you were actively tanking that would be a big deal. I’m just saying that the team so far hasn’t been nearly good enough and you didn’t make a lot of moves to fill the holes. It’s a passive unwanted tank.

But I’d use different words in retrospect.

I stole that idea from Ron, I think. Someone used to add those in there. It made me at least read through everyone's TNs and find a good line to add.
