A.L. Central Discussion 2016

[SlinkyRedfoot]

We'd be at 20K already had Vice not gotten banned. But I digress.....

Probably. I remember days where hundreds of posts would be dropped in a day explaining what a dipshit he was.

Sometimes I miss several day discussions on average age of past rosters.


But only sometimes.

Yeah, but now we're left with iffy's and voltair's shit, which is less amusing.

Can you imagine how shitty this thread would be if Tiger fans got along?

YAPP ever come over from FN?

You Detroit fans are brutal.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

He did for about a minute, got banned and that was that.

 

[broncosmitty]

I remember Yapp, his star burned bright.

But too fast.


I remember sending a lot of drunken PMs when you Yahoos first got here, Trying to curb the ban hammering. Got a lot of FUCK You I'll do what I wants in return.

 

[dougplayer]

I agree with Smitty here that we need to hit 15k before we wrap this bitch up.

That said, once it is time to create a new thread, I would like to nominate @dougplayer to start it - if he's willing - hopefully with one a characteristically Tigers-bent assessment of what will happen in the ALc in 2017.

Doug, are you in?

Sure. Can we ban. Iffy. I hate that dumb ass nut licker

I got banned pretty much immediately upon joining for busting Hammer's balls because he said there were a lot of players that give the Padres "hometown discounts to play in San Diego." I jumped on that. Let him know that those weren't "hometown discounts," but rather all they could get because no other team would have those shitty players. It all started when he said he was sure that Chase Headley had to be super disappointed that he was traded to the Yankees. Pretty funny in hindsight.

I got reinstated somehow and banned shortly thereafter for starting a cross-sport athlete comparison poll where I asked tHoop the hard-hitting question of who was a better rapist, Kobe Bryant or Ben Rothlesberger. Banned immediately. Seriously, I think it was about ten seconds after I posted the poll. He must have been watching me.

Then I snuck back on with an alt account, but I PM'ed Hammer and told him who I was. That's when he reinstated my original account and made my signature, "I'm an asshole," and he set it so that I couldn't change it (I think he wanted that to bother me, but I laughed my ass off). He proceeded to tell me that based on Cyder's vouching for me, he'd let me stay, but that I was clearly an asshole and a non-entertaining asshole. Nearly 11k positive ratings later, I'm all, "HOW YOU LIKE ME NOW?!"

We got through all that and he told me that when FanNation crashed, some guys came over here and acted like total shitsticks. Causing real problems and even threatening to sue him? Crazy shit. I didn't know the guys he was talking about - they were apparently from the FN NHL boards and I don't know shit about that because I'm not from Canada.

YAPP was a unique guy. He could be funny as hell, but if something pissed him off, the guy would fly WAY OFF the fucking chain. I think that's what got him banned. At one point, Hammer told me YAPP had sent the site an email and wanted to be reinstated and asked what I thought. I told him he's funny as hell, but can go crazy. Hammer reinstated YAPP's account but, to my knowledge, YAPP never posted again. He did funny shit like that. He always said he wanted to join the DLFL (FN's fantasy baseball league) and we'd arrange a spot for him, I'd ask him for an email address so that he could register on the CBS site and he'd say "never mind." Seems it happened every year.

Those prime years on FN were fucking HYSTERICAL. Atro, YAPP, Sir Robin, Field Marshall Sunny Day, Justin Cyder, Shoulda Traded Phil Hughes, ChiSox, Chasin Utleys, and I'm sure there are some that I'm forgetting. Those days could get funny as hell.

Overall, I do like this place better now that I'm acclimated to it, but I do miss those prime times on FN.

I went there last year as well. In the fall. Amazing park and I had a great time. I bought my ticket the day of the game on StubHub for $8. Front row in that roof party deck deal, but I think I only sat in the seat for about an inning and a half.



When I was there, I stayed downtown, so I didn't have to worry about traffic, but it was still tough for me to get to the hotel on account of all the drinks I had and the three gummies I ate. I swear, I was walking down the sidewalk and when people weren't walking towards me, I had an eye closed so I could focus better.

God bless Colorado.

Yeah those gummies can pack a nice punch.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I was in Denver on business. Took an early morning flight in and with the time change, made a morning meeting. After that, I found a dispensary. I had a sport coat on and I felt like the hipster behind the counter wasn't taking me very seriously. He was nice, but I don't think his imagination would let him believe what this middle-aged guy in a sport coat was capable of.

I told him I didn't know anything about edibles and asked how much I should eat. "well, these are 10mg each," he says which means exactly fuckall to me. He suggested that I start with a quarter or a half and see how that works. Ain't nobody got time for that, so I ate three.

In recreational shops there's a THC limit on edible. The medical dispensary I shop @ has gummies that are 200mg's.

You don't eat those at once, do you?

 

[Wamu]

You don't eat those at once, do you?

Hell no. I eat 2 or 3 @ a time. I'd be way too messed up eating all of them @ once.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

No, I mean the 200mg ones. Those can't be meant for one-time consumption. Right?!

I'm pretty sure I could tolerate four or five of those 10mg jobs if I watched my drinking (good fucking luck with that), but you're talking about four times that.

Yep I'm talking about the 200mg ones. And you're right, they aren't meant for 1 time consumption.
