Closest matchup no doubt is between the Huggies and us, I have a feeling we could pull it off though. My two big time pickers are definitely gonna get out of this slump, no doubt.

Is it me or is Stickman slowly becoming one of the best pickers in the site?

If neither Wish or Wilflet step up to the plate for TRT, I will be making replacements for them to keep them competitive.

People run their teams how they want. Most of us have known they were down 2 pickers all week.  Don't think it is anyones place to step in and change another team.

I think @Lopati's right. I don't even think David Stern's done that.

David Stern runs the New Orleans Hornets actually there Anik.

And @lopati if you'd like to make your own site or come up with your own league on here, you can run it however you like. 

I put TRT together and no one from that team has stepped up and so much as even posted about it, so if no one does and ACF continues to make no picks I will replace him with someone who wants to play (gastronaut)

But I thank you for your input.

Actually Messiah, David Stern USED to run the Hornets they are owned by Tom Benson now, lol.

You need to pick between being a captain and the tyrant(lol).

ACF has had in his Sig; RETIRED TAPOLOGY PICKER.  so wondering if he is gonna make more picks is a waste of time.  He is gone.

obviously you don't listen to people so do what ever you want and watch your league dissipate faster than the last one.

Same league different setup, and it's been the biggest thing on Tapology for going on 7 months now. If you don't like it, leave the thread and no one will miss you.

you need to realize that taking advice from people would help you out a lot in the world.  But hey do whatever you want, because your the Messiah and you KNOW IT ALL just like most little kids, who actually know nothing at all.

Just like you tried to give Gregory advice on how to run his site? Thanks, but I don't need your help running the league Lopati.

If I do, I shall ask.

Better to give advice to help the site than to ruin its reputation with behavior like yours!!!


Like I said, do what ever you want.  Keep living your life based on your Tapology achievements they will get you far in life.
