You ignore the fact that the 14th owner could end up with his worst preference (whatever the slot is), while he’s competing against owners who received their best preference. If this was the result of an ALL-random process, so be it, at least it was FAIR to everyone…EVERY step of the way. But the Kentucky dufus method is not fair every step of the way.

Answer me this, why not run the weekly FA process via the Kentucky dufus method? Thanks again.

OK, GG - renman, this debate has not moved forward for 2 pages. Can you guys start another topic that's more interesting - or at least call me a name or something so I can join in.

[/QUOTE]The Kentucky method for supplimentals would be better than random supplimental picks ... Gekko ... your all or nothing! Wouldn't it be better to give 13 people a choice ... then none. The luck of the draw is bad for one. Why make every suffer for it. So be it ... you will not change ... your lack of reasonableness is making me ill

I for one ... am sick and tired of Gekkos same old retoric. MY way is the only way. Greg ... swith my vote from the BBDS to the Kentuck Durby method.

Congratulations Gekko ... you did finally sway a vote!

gekko...

a- controlling where you draft from has VERY MINIMAL effect on a fantasy football season
b- it is very unlikely an owner would get his least favorite position to draft from
c- every owner has the same chance of being picked first (even though everyone logical knows that having your first option is of very minimal value). thus it is fair...

i already answered why we bid on free agents... about 4 times now (you were wanting an example of where you flat out embarrass yourself by ignoring what is type and said here). bidding is BY FAR the most fair, pure and fun way to get free agents... i also PREFER it as the way to control draft position... you, being unreasonable.. and seeming to feed of message board hostility, ignore this fact and ignore that the reason i am simply RECEPTIVE to the derby format is to help GROW INTEREST in the event and not scare away new owners who could very well be intimidated by bbds... i am simply saying you are being a clown by referring to the derby style in such an ignorant and derogatory way.

i am not saying i prefer derby style or bbds.. i am simply saying that you are unreasonable in your need to dump on something that might differ from what YOU prefer. i prefer the EVENT GROWING first, and my favorite draft control procedure second. but, then again.. i am a rational, logical, educated, reasonable person...

my way is not the only way. i prefer the current 100% all random method, than the kentucky dufus method.

your post stating that you are switching only becuase of me (and not the idea) shows that you have little upstairs when it comes to evaluating ideas.

p.s. if you are sick and tired of Gekkos same old retoric, don't read my posts. simple enough for a child to understand, but not some nffc folks. go figure

It shows how utterly imposible it is to continue listening and reading your narcissistic comments, even for people who supported you in the past. So again, nice job - keep it up.

Funny, you tell them to stop reading a PUBLIC message board which are filled with your babble for ALL to see.
