There are certainly more than 12 seriously savvy GM's on here, but everyone has least favorites, so here are the 11 people on here that leap to mind, that have most often dashed my hopes against the jagged rocks beneath. May you all die horribly! In no particular order...1) Nevdully. It is certainly irritating to have him grind over you, season after season, but what really gravels me is that he does it with players that won't do squat for me.And at crunch time, it always seems like my ace gets beaten by some schmuck on his team like Mike Cvengros, or the hated Clyde Drieswerd, whom I swear turns into Dennis Eckersley magically for him in stretch games against me....2) Petrosian, always bad news...3) Play By the Rules...he kicks your ass after telling you he is going to kick your ass, then after kicking your ass, tells you why he kicked your ass...4) AceVentura and his Twins, the inspiration for the still unfulfilled dream of mine to add the fatal plane crash option to league play, to eliminate particularly frustrating opponents...5) Frank Bailey...MY Wonderful Life Dream ending would be for all of your teams to be sucked back into Hell from which they were spawned...6) Odyssey Tigger. His teams should hit about .140, but he usually not only outpitches me with his ERA retentive offerings, but usually outscores me too, which is insane....7) errormagnate, if only for the Gonadopenics, who have destroyed my hopes in the SmallBallers series too many times..every time in fact. A small, testicular shrinking death to you!..8)Stephen Lee...is Satan, but I have belabored that enough....9) Munich Man...so affable, so unassuming...so deadly. 10) evilcartman...haven't heard much from him lately, thank God...11) Bobby. He once defeated a 90 plus win team of mine with a 79 win POS, I kid you not. So, newbies, there they are. You have been warned. Avoid playing with these people at all costs. There a few dozen more, but I will save the insulting of them for another day.

Would that be a frenzy with or without dh?

This wasn't a challenge, it was a public service message...an on line exhortation to duck and cover. I will wait until you are all done eviscerating me in the Not Nev's League before subjecting myself to any more humiliation. Except for the two frenzy leagues I signed up for tonight, but those are the last, I swear.

Pussie.

Better to insult and run away, to live to insult another day! :D

Well, you might as well get into the Real Top contender frenzy league. There is a "To the Dark Side" entry which I feel certain is Petrosian, so it can't get any worse. Also, my entry into this league is my second edition of the high errors theme team, the hands of stone Things. As you may recall, Nevdully, you defeated them in the finals in their debut season, you devious bastard. So you owe them a chance at revenge, or as the character in A Fish Called Wanda might say, "Wevenge!"

thats funny muttdoc the last 5 finals ive been in recently ive lost to guys you have mentioned. go figure. should have posted this earlier.

Well in the Nevdully nightmare league I finished second to tkl, who ironically was #1 on Nev's list and beat him in the division/first round. Damned Campanella...

See Michael, if you hadn't have ducked me, you could have won the East and at least made it to the Finals... :roll:

I'd be down for another one like this.

Me too... :D

I am supposed to have a langorous romantic weekend this weekend...so I will set the league up Friday!!!!
