It's Tough

Post by Deadheadz » Thu Feb 27, 2014 9:01 am

It's tough living in an area where baseball is the third (a distant third) favorite sport and fantasy baseball is as foreign to the locals as turbans are to many Americans.

NFBC and the NFBC forums are my outlet.

I love the sport and love the game even more. You guys are my peers I suppose. I don't have the privelege of discussing this interest with my buddies or coworkers. They don't get it. They aren't pumped about baseball the way we are. Not asking for sympathy, just some perspective for you.

You can see I get carried away on here. I'm like a recent parolee getting out of prison and showing up at the Moonlite Bunny Ranch for the first time.

Some of you say I'm annoying. Most of you are polite enough to withhold your snide comments but you probably still agree. I'm not going to change, so unless STATS asks me to change my ways you'd better get used to it.

You can handle it, can't you?

If not, please ignore me.

No.
I've pretty much put you on 'ignore'.
You create threads like this one about YOURSELF.
Most don't care.
This is a fantasy baseball site. Not a lonely hearts club for Canadians. Join in conversations about fantasy baseball.
For all other personal things, isn't their a Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, or Oprah site?
I'm not trying to be funny with this.
Talk about fantasy baseball.
On my tombstone-
Wait! I never had the perfect draft!

Dan,

The best thing is for nobody to even post a response to these moronic posts. We can only hope that with no responses they eventually go away and do not clutter the boards.

That's what I'd prefer.
You've seen and participated in what happens when I talk about fantasy baseball Dan.
I'm called a moron, idiot, prick.

One guy started a thread about his dreams of shooting me. That's not passive aggressive at all, it's "humor"'.

I actually agree with you. If you don't want to see a response, don't make a comment. You're just asking for it.

Yeah Dan, keep the thread going. We can do this all day.

Or ignore it and it'll go away.
