Starli... Silly ratings guide quibling

You havn't addressed any of them...

How can we move on to Castro if you cannot address the questions that are being discussed and you have no answer for besides "Let's move on to Starlin Castro". You opened a can of worms and now you cannot backup your statements. I am shocked you even play in any leagues with managers who even use a ratings guide, how such an unfair advantage that must be for you.

Hi, Dave.

I did address your questions about ratings guides giving an edge, and your other questions as well. Here is the post where I did so:

Since you didn't address my post that answered all these questions, I'll say it again. "Time savers" are those that save time on mundane activities of workable time lengths. Ratings guides do much more than that. Considering almost none of us, including myself, have even close to the time necessary to actually count out every card on the set. So, the ratings guides give their user information they most likely never would have gotten without them. And, as I said before, counting out the cards doesn't guarantee one would count them out correctly.

Your acknowledging people might not count them out correctly perfectly supports my point. The ratings guide provide a service guaranteeing they'll be counted out correctly for those who can't...even though very few of us have the time to count out a whole set.

So, the ratings guide do give helpful, vital information that give their users an edge they most likely wouldn't have had without them. I don't know why people who actually pay for that edge try to say they didn't. I'm not saying it's unfair in anyway. Let's get back to Starlin Castro.

That countered every point you made and answered every question. If you disagree, feel free to address it yourself.

I totally disagree.

How do ratings guide give an edge? Still no facts to back this statement up.

There is nothing in the ratings guide that one cannot compute themselves. Given this, then the ratings guide provides no advantage. Time is not a valid argument either.

Hey Steve, like clockwork! right???

Just like you said, Standard Operating Procedure and then we get the line by line response....wait for another one shortly

Agreed. I don't even bother to read those posts, though. They are so hard to read. Multiquoting capabilities should be banned.

Alot of comments from one who claims have never bought one, but sure seems to know what is included .

I didn't give you a "line by line" response, Dave. I gave you a full post again that completely answered your questions and countered your arguments. You gave me the line-by-line response by not addressing it in any way and simply asking your same silly questions.

So, I'm doing a troll sweep and putting you, Steve-O, and LaTorre on ignore and my Foes list. You guys, particularly the other two, have contributed nothing to this thread.

So, Goodbye, big guy. I can't say I'll miss you...

Cry me a freakin river, we should all be so blessed to be on ones foes list

Maybe someday he will tell us all how the ratings book gives an advantage

Troll sweep should be renamed in your honor.


Steve F - what did you do to the poor guy? Was it something you said (or didn't say)

Agreed. I don't even bother to read those posts, though. They are so hard to read. Multiquoting capabilities should be banned.

"Agreed," but you don't even bother to read the posts? That is so lame, Wavy. And since you're part of that silly cabal of trolls. I'm finishing my spring cleaning by putting you on ignore as well. So, welcome to my foes list.

Now, let's get back to Starlin Castro...

I also enjoy his claims that so many of us don't have lives because we check the boards a few times a day or spend our leisure time on league themes or analysis. That his position in the world is much more valuable than ours, he has far more important things to do....

yet he is on the boards all day long LOL
