Was scary seeing all the water and bile he threw up all over our carpet that day, 3 or 4 times. But yeah so far so good! Thanks for asking. And sorry to hear about your dog, they are just like family.

I still routinely wear sweaters and shirts that I bought 5-10 years ago. I have been trying to whittle down my wardrobe through natural attrition for a couple years but it's a slow process.

    Let me guess, you watched Star Wars? I was in a restaurant and the waiter asked me if I was going to watch Star Wars, I didn't want to tell him I haven't been to the movies in years. Last one I watched was Public Enemies. Can't remember how long ago that was now. Might have been one of those Avenger movies that was the last one I watched, been years anyhow.

    I'll most likely be starting a dynasty league starting next season. I was thinking 16 teams h2h with playoffs and make sure the playoffs isn't last week of season so good players aren't benched. Slow draft throughout the summer. I'll look to even having a trophy to the winner. I was in a league like this and I loved it. Probably use yuku forums. I'll make Dobber members first priority if I make this league. Just a free league of course.

    Me and another GM got into a quarrel, I started trash talking his team becuase I'm in 1st place, so he takes offense to it ( I may have had a few drinks at the time ), ( i may have a few drniks in me right now) then says I will be in insane asylum by play-offs anyhow. Se we argue back and forth. Now the guy quits the league. Man, I wanted a good fight on my hands, back and forth trash talk is fun. WTF

    Funny thing is I start singing the words to the song "Rude" by Magic, I keep saying Why you got to be so rude? You know I'm going to win this league, there is nothing you can do .... haahhahahaa. I thought it was pretty funny but filling up that guys chat ticked him off big time and he said he doesn't want to deal with me. I tried to apologize but he wanted to hear none of it. DAAMIT

    god i love fantasy hockey. I told him how another GM in another league requested that my chat be blocled from him, and that they couldn't, he said I am probably the problem, which he may be right but trash talk makes fantasy hockey that much more funner.'

    aLL IN good fun of couse.

    Trash talk is sometimes difficult if you dont know the guy personally. I mean I talk about a GM's mother all the time in my league. Stuff that should mean a punch in the face. We know that we are just kidding around so no one gets offended. Every once in a while it come close though! haha

    I hear ya. I was part of Amazing Fantasy Hockey League which was one of my favorite leagues of all time, and would love to have a chance to get back in, tonnes of tassh talk and lots of smart gm's. Trash talk between another GM and myself got a little heated and went tooo far and I woosied out like a little B .... and quit the league. biggest regret of my life. Daamiitt. Id pay $200 to just be accepted back. dam

    Dont give it, if you can't take it.

    Plus, if that is your biggest regret, you are doing quite well.

    Roughly the half way point of the NHL season and my brother and myself are #1 and #2 in a $250 1-year points league (12 entrants). Been that way since day 1 basically. We are the only members from the Dobber Community in that pool I believe. It would be ok if he weren't rubbing it in the whole time (he is in 1st) lol, but I did the same once I won our newspapers' play-off hockey pool. There were roughly 300 or 400 entrants and I came 1st (beat out 2nd place by 1 pt) and my twin came 3rd place. Good times.

    Sobered up pretty quick from my mickey of Jack Daniels. Man, at one point it really kicked in and I felt wasted. Feel pretty good now, not sick or anything, drank quite a bit of water so all is good! Hope you all enjoy the rest of the night!

    Yeah agreed with others. The type of trash talk is dependent on the relationships you have with the GMs in your league. Ideally you want to get to the point where anything goes.

    I try to keep personal jabs out of trash talking but sometimes even I cross the line
