    I'm glad me going out of my way to make amends with everyone was all for nothing.

      Nice.

      Nothing says sincerity like unveiled resentment.

        If there was a need for amends and you made them only to try to get back into the league they were hollow anyway. The peace of the amends should be worth it.

          So... you're saying you've just been nice to everyone only so you could get back into the league?!?

                Just curious how this constitutes "going out of your way"? Seems to me it's not much of a chore. Or is it...

                  I'm still trying to decide if popcorn or milk duds will go better with the entertainment.

                      Trick question! I hate popcorn. But I so like milk duds. Except I also try not to eat much candy anymore. Unless it's milk duds!

                      Mmm milk duds.

                            Let me clarify one thing, I did not try to make amends solely in an attempt to get back into the league; I thought that was clear in a PM I sent to a few people. I realized how moronic I looked when I would go off into my McEnroeian outbursts and felt bad for subjecting everyone to that...not an empty gesture by any means. I was basically just frustrated by the "F off" response I got in return (disclaimer: that's just how I took it, apologies if that was not the intent). This was by far the best league I've ever been apart of and I'd be telling a lie if I said I didn't want to get back in, but there were (and still are) a bunch of chill people in the league that were cool to me despite my "temper". So consider this an open and sincere apology. I've tried to become a contributor to the forum despite not being an active GM and would like to continue to do that. Would I like another team? Absolutely, and I don't think it should be held against me.

                            Anybody in search of an OOTP league would be a fool to not have this one on or near the top of their list. I'm disappointed that I pretty much got shot down, but if I'm liked or disliked, at least when it comes to the game I know what I'm doing. I was unable to build a team as prestigious and other-worldly as the Washington Bats, but I thought I did okay for awhile there.

                            My apologies for my previous posts coming off as a hollow apology, it really wasn't. I also apologize if my @FormerMillersGM account was taken seriously; that was always meant to be a 100% satirical account that pretty much made fun of myself. I felt bad when I read that someone took that Twitter page the wrong way.

                            I also apologize to Sully, who didn't really deserve any of my verbal tirades, and actually helped me better understand the financial aspect of the game early on. I know you're not in the league anymore, but I'm sure you still lurk and will get the chance to read this. Most other people getting lambasted by a sometimes inebriated, profanity-filled teenager would've handled things much worse.

                            Again I'm sorry if my initial attempts to make amends seemed fake or not genuine. Hopefully this post will clear up any problems anybody may have had with me. I probably should've used better verbiage than "going out of my way". "Reaching out" may have been a better term...I don't know, but I apologize.
