First come, First served - After Blind Bids are processed...

Post by TexasHeat » Tue Oct 09, 2007 4:49 am

Like I said, I wanted to get opinion on the idea from those in this contest. I was trying to settle a debate on this issue by provoking more opinions.

I didn't realize I would offend so many by wasting MB space with such a topic.

I thought it was a legit question for discussion.
It's sad that far too often manners are left at the door on this MB.

There were some good points made in opposition to this topic. Trust me....alot more MB space has been wasted on far more ridiculous topics.

Sorry you were given the "you must be a dumb ass for asking" treatment. Another reason that I'm limiting my time on the MB this year. :rolleyes:

But, you gotta pass the Phase I sniff test at a minimum. King --- lock it again and hide the key better this time.

[/QUOTE]Midwestern values. I know it seems strange to some but we actually value people around here.

Not that I haven't been an ass to some on the MB before....but I always feel bad afterwards.

Look, keep the ideas coming. Nobody thinks Texas Heat is an idiot. But "first come , first serve" anything does not even have a place in local leagues where you compete with soon-to-be ex-friends/ex-wives (if it is FCFS).

How might Greg ever market such a concept in a
high-stakes arena without the following phrases being tossed at him?:
-"Good ole boys"
-"I'll hire an attorney"
-"my cat is part-Indian you know"
-"I'm going to WCOFF"
-"Poker is my kind of game"
-"Favre and Driver are out to ruin my season"

Favre and Driver (and, to an extent, Wynn) are SAVING my season.

Funny, I can't remember ever having so many Packers on a fantasy squad -- Greg and Tom's "Midwestern Values" (or something) must be rubbing off on me.
