1. If you had a team in BBS, would you have won a ring by now?
As I have been helping Nanz I have realized I don't desire to be a GM in BBS. Its too easy for me to know who to go after, and who not to go after. I like sitting back and watching guys pick stars or busts. I don't have the desire to GM. If I was in the league I think i would've challenged for a title early on but I'm not sure I would've won. If I had it would've felt cheap.
2. Which BBS GM do you dislike the most?
I dont dislike anyone day to day, but Martinez does the most annoying shit. Id say he is someone that sometimes I just really dislike, someone I wish that would just STFU sometimes.
DJ has been kinda bitchy lately so he pisses me off sometimes.
AllStar think I hate him and Id kinda like him to continue to think that.
3. Which BBS GM is the most overrated? Why?
Play. He's damn good in all his other leagues but he has had trouble rebuilding here. Bad luck suppose but I really wanted him here because of his success on other sims.
4. Who's your favorite GM?
I don't have a favorite. At one time or another I am amused by almost everyone. That is my pleasure.
5. You have to make a firing. You're given three choices. Out of the following groups, who goes:
Ebener-Skillz-Nova
Fired: Skillz
Tough one here but Skillz. SKillz is a solid GM but he over trades and he tends to bring less activity on a normal basis then the other 2.
Galo-DJ-Scott
Fired:Galo
Pretty easy one here. Most feel he got lucky the last time and won a couple titles. He has shown to be mediocre at best. I wish he had more time to spend on the sim.
Allstar-Keelty-JAH
Fired: All 3.
Ya, they all kinda suck for various reasons. Kris just isn't active enough, and never goes for the big time move. AllStar has done nothing, he plays the middle too. JAH is the best GM of the bunch but he overext3nds himself. If he was only in 2 leagues I think he'd be dominate.
Ducky-Blue-Tiger
Fired:Ducky
Although active, most of his posts are nonsense. Hes kinda two faced, and hes overextended. If he were only a Gm in a couple of leagues he'd be better.
Maniac-A2J-Pig
Fired:Maniac
Maniac is actually one of my favorite GMs in the league now, but this is a tough bracket.
6. On that same note, if you had to fire one GM, who would it be?
If I had to fire one GM it'd be between Kris and Galo. Both could be replaced activity wise pretty easily, and neither has shown the ability to win for long stretches.
7. Rank the BBS GMs 1-29 (if you're not up to it, I'll revise this question)
1.Outlawz
2.Dave
3.Reilly
4.Aar
5.Jordan
6.Andy
7.Habes
8.A2J
9.DJ
10.Tiger
11.James
12.Pig
13.Ebener
14.Mark
15.Nova
16.Maniac
17.Dan
18.Play
19.Greg
20.JAH
21.Scott
22.Ducky
23.BDR
24.Skillz
25.AllStar
26.Martinez
27.Keelty
28.Galo
29.Nanz
8. Now add yourself to the list.
18. My interest level is almost never consistent enough to be really good.
9. Reilly in his prime, or Krupinski now. Who's better?
Reilly. His teams were insane in BBS1 and it's pretty obvious his lack of free time doesn't allow him to be better. I do wish a GM like Silk would come back. he was Reilly before Reilly.
10. What's the closest you've ever come to quitting BBS?
Id have to say the closest I cam to quitting, or whenever I do contemplate ending BBS it's because of personal stuff. either relationship problems, or my inability to sometimes be productive away from work. Ive never truly considered quitting because o BBS problems.
11. Who is the least talented GM?
Galo. I feel like I'm beating on him but I just don't like what he's done with his teams.
12. Have you and Will spoken since the debacle? Will you? Do you hold a grudge against him?
I haven't PMd or IMd him. we had an argument on the 1982 boards, and that has been about it. I don't like him, or how he handled the situation. He's an immature twat. it's funny how adamant about saying BBS was immature when he acted like a 12 year old girl through his quitting process.
13. Who wins BBS this year?
Dave again. I don't think Outlawz has enough depth and not mentioning you will piss you off, so it'll be funny.
14. What type of computer are you?
IBM
15. Which GM's general strategy do you hate the most?
Right now id have to say Galo. He doesn't really change anything. I'm guessing he thinks he should win with what he has, but its pretty obvious its not working. In general any team that just doesn't change anything and is befuddled by a poor team. Small tweaks are sometimes necessary to make you better, but in most cases if a team dynamic isnt working, you need to shake it up. Hopefully Butler will do the trick.
16. You take over the Cavs, Clippers, and Bulls. Make one trade for each team that you think a) puts them in the playoffs and b) is fair for both sides.
Cavs...The only thing they can really do now is add a better PG, or at least a better backup PG. Problem is the player will have to be cheap. Maybe a combo guy like Aaron McKie? or someone like Luke Ridnour.
Clippers...Pretty much what they just did, which is go for Caron Butler. They might be even better if they can deal Ricky Davis for more of a shooter, someone like Q, or add a backup PG/SG that can really shoot. Someone like Eddie House would be perfect.
Bulls...Id send out guys like Robert Swift, Travis Outlaw and Tony Allen for some more experienced guys. I think I'd target Antawn Jamison from SEA. Expiring and a prospect should do it. Maybe RSwift, Hedo and Allen for Jamison? Then Id turn around and deal Fisher, Trent, Outlaw and filler to the Lakers for Sow and Best.
17. Rate the job each of these GMs have done 1-10:
Mark, NJ: 5. Its not hard to trade talent for 2nds.
Nova, IND: 6. The deal for Bibby might be ok, but I liked Shard more. Bibby seems to sim better in an outside offense.
Aar, SEA: 5. I dont like any of the youth he has gotten. Q and TD were 2 of the best players in the league.
Reilly, DET: 5. I dont like Dalembert. I see his reasoning, but that contract will only get worse.
DJ, TOR: 0.He hasn't done anything.
18. Lastly, the forum's yours. Call out any GM you want, say what you have to say, or say nothing. Peace and thank you.
Play? WTF? Are you gonna get fired? Make some more moves and guarantee your spot here! Send Andy his shoes!
Galo, you too!
Chris, have you lost your GMing skills? Stop being afraid to do what you think is best and just do it. Its like you forgot you could be good at this.
Tiger and Andy, I want to see an owl thread in the next 24 hours or you will see serious potential decreases to Paul and Marion.
Mark, stop being so damn sensitive.
James, more articles from work. Now. K?
