THEE NYG SWAG THREAD

This league is such a ****show. You'd figure over a 4 year period you would have all gotten your **** together.....

Arent you guyus embarassed that you do this EVERY year? it's awful. And you wonder why I didn't want to play last year? lol

I saw a few highlights of mark ingram running real hard

Thats right Daven things were happening on the fly ...votes were being taken will debate was going on about the whole thing...its easy to look back and say ok we should have debated all the options first and then the vote but thats not what happened....Matt was trying to come up with something that maybe everybody would like hence why he called it a compromise cause that what he thought it was....people who wanted 3wrs got it, people who wanted flex got that...then he debated why he thought is was a good compromise ....thats the way I saw it anyway.....in the future maybe we need to be a little more carefull of how these votes go down ....not everybody can be in this thread at the same time or the whole time the vote is going on ....

the vote was between 2 wr flex and 3 wr, period end of story. EXACTLY. Well, except that wasnt the end of the story and some other random vote was brought that i never voted on nor saw the results for. 3 wr isnt what i wanted, but i prefer it over 3 wr + flex and i voted accordingly.there was absolutely no reason to vote again on something that had been decided. your analogy is terrible. an analogy that fits the bill would be a vote on whether or not qb td points should be 4 or 6. Say 6 wins, well now **** that i dont like that, lets vote for qb td points being 5 points. Doesnt make much sense to me.

Agreed I think this is exactly what happened, but the thing is if we are doing the votes on the forums then inevitable some people are going to miss it, until we come up with some other place to do it it's always going to be like this, the thing I don't get is the league rules are based on votes right? so it really doesn't matter per say if "You" or "I" get to see a particular vote...because in the end everyone thinks how they think and are going to vote how they are going to vote...if there is 6+ votes on whatever it is it really makes no difference if I was against it and didn't get to vote...because without me there was 6+ votes anyhow so it was going to pass no matter what...
