he said in vent the same night that he could've cared less what had happened between the 2 teams and was just fishing for rep lol. it worked though, as it got a few people to troll Toggle ON/"rustle some jimmies" and consequently indirectly insult HK at the same time -__-
this whole thing was never a big deal between the 2 teams. the forums made something out of nothing. ducks handled it the way he would've handled it with any team (1 ringer in the same division and who belongs in said division? sure. 2? eh, especially after the match was already rescheduled once to accommodate them). i don't think HK's perceived skill by some of the 1911 faithful warrants them being treated any differently compared to every other team, as again, that's insulting to HK regardless of their actual skill level.
i guess their (the jimmy rustlers) arguments in regards to the FF would be valid if they somehow got someone from HK to willingly post outright what some in here are rudely insinuating about them, but until then, keep on trollin'. too many people in here care about what doesn't concern them. shut up and play (directed towards EVERYONE in this worthless thread, my team included).
The scene in Blazing Saddles comes to mind when the guy stands up in the church townhall meeting extolling Gabby Johnson for his, "authentic frontier jibberish" about this whole 3 page thread. (can't figure out how to post the vid clip) MOONFACE=noob
HK has always shown up for our matches. (I do believe, to the best of my recollection their were two other occassions that we had to enlist the use of ringers this season.) This one particular time, we flaked. Badly. Yes, we were graciously given a later start time to accomodate the player who worked on Sunday. We had two noshows. The only two players that were available, known to myself and DD were the two aformentioned earlier in this thread. By their rights of first refusal, permission was not given to us to allow them to participate. Again, by TPG rules, within their rights. We tried feverously to locate two other players but to no avail. There was no other option but to FF the match. Ducks has graciously asked me if we would like to reschedule the match, but, it would be an embarrasement to us, the league, and ultimately, to ToggleOn, if we pulled a boner and noshowed, again. I sheepishly declined.
How this all went from an FF to bashing european players to bashing josh is quite amazing to me and is quite astonishing.
