Dammit, I really thought that everyone had just forgotten Hakushi. He was probably leaving the board at my pair of picks until that crap just happened.

Silvio, confirm that you're around and that you don't require a PM.

I would have considered Hakushi earlier, but I became convinced that I was just hoarding a secret from the whole field.

Jeff Jarrett is a much more worthy ban than Hacksaw since he has spent his whole career getting a push that didn't match his pop.

It was all downhill after he stopped just wearing NOD suits and being called a prodigy with no basis to be called that.

Hacksaw got a friends with Hogan ban. So you can guess who some of my other bans were

Also that version of the NOD/Rock music in the above is badass. Bring that back please.

lol i am only being half serious. it was more a friends-with-hogan-and-can't-work-a-lick ban. we tried to stay away from people who were purely or primarily "over" as a quality. (meaning over due to getting non-work pops a la New Age Outlaws intro)

of course, we aren't taking people with zero heat, but we felt like there were plenty of diamonds in the rough who could draw their own heat and actually work believable matches for titles and not just be a glorified 2nd star spangled banner intermission

The crowd stays hot during Duggan matches and don't treat it like an intermission at all. You just have to use him correctly; not everyone in your company is going to be a champion, and if you have them all being some kind of champion then you're just cheapening your belts. Obviously Duggan is purely a JTTS for me.

I really want to extend this a bunch of rounds for rofls. It's not like this is real fantasy sports and it will affect people's rosters that much unless they would have gone all comedy or all dead people starting a few rounds back.

I mean, "could get pops" <<<<<<< "will get pops."

But I realize that you're teaming with the commish who steps up to downplay marketability and good business sense every single time it gets brought up as criterion for judging a final product, so it is what it is.

WHAT ARE THESE STUPID REASONS FOR BANS?!?

Last edited by LKJ; 09-04-2011 at 10:48 PM. Reason: Also I hoped so since Silvio was clamoring for one, but maybe he went to bed.

We are an Unholy Alliance. I am the one in the dark robes, he has the white ones. I do what I am told and wait in the shadows to melt faces. I think I just melted his face via e-mail lolol.

Draw matters. Quite a bit. I have an issue with people who use it as if it means everything. I want a roster with balance ... some draws (see our Ultimate Warrior pick), but also some talkers (we're admittedly a little short here) and a lot of guys who can work good matches with most of the others on the roster (I think we excel here).
