OK. Here's a game that people can play if they want where people can pretend to be the GM of a team, and we can make trades and stuff as if it's the offseason (no vegas expansion trades until we get closer to the expansion draft, though you may talk about those trades). You may ask for a team, and i will give you that team if it isn't already taken. My favourite teams are the Rangers and Islanders tied, so i'll be the Islanders. Each person may only be the GM of one team.
Here is the list of GMs (i will update it when someone claims a team):
Anaheim Ducks - TrueNorth https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/345664

Me and him wanted the same player. He sent articles that bashed my players in the offer I made to the GM who had the player we wanted. Pretty scummy move. Idk why he's on the BOG, but, whatevs

You told plNHL that Troy Brower was a top line player...wasn't bashing, wasn't preventing him from being manipulated


Lmao give me the quote where I said that. Please. I never said that. plNHL said he was a first liner. Not me. Nice try, though. Still a scummy move.

Completely agree with this. All the pending cases will remain open and I will revisit them tomorrow afternoon when I have time again. As a BOG member I feel mainly responsible for not better containing and minimaizing the gongshow and for that I'm sorry. We all need to do better in terms of managing emotions and such in this game though.

And it's not your place to do that. especially taking into consideration you wanted the player. If PINHL doesn't know what he's getting into, that's his problem. You weren't helping him out. You were trying to get the player. You were manipulating if anything lol

I was out on the deal by that time...whatever, I don't feel like arguing here. Call me immature, call me whatever you want, I couldn't care less by this stage


Uh, you weren't out of the deal for at least another day. Even so, it's a scummy move. Again, nice try, though.

Enough. For. Tonight. If you're not making trade offers just stop for the night and get some good sleep.

Goodnight ya'll and hopefully we can reconvene and discuss this in a more civil manner tomorrow.

It not a "subject" but just something I wrote as a creative writing for English.

The prompt was "Describe Something W/Out Naming It"

Science has found a way to quantitatively measure how many of these you have a minute. However, there is no possible way to measure the magnitude of their impact. They come to you in different forms. They can be positive or negative, funny or serious, happy or depressing. They come to you suddenly or sometimes you take a long look at them, trying to decide what they mean. It’s a process in which begins form psychological associations and models of the world. It’s a process in which you manipulate information, as when we form concepts, engage in problem solving, reason and making decisions. They know no bounds, and cannot be contained. You may not want to do it, but you do, because it is all you know. It’s scary to realize that there will be a time in which you won’t be able to do this anymore. You should cherish your ability that you are born with, because there will be an inevitable time when you cannot cherish them anymore.

Some people write theirs down on paper. Others keep them to themselves, a place that they might find more comforting and safe. Sharing them is just as scary as realizing that you won’t have the opportunity to share them with anyone. There is no method to measure the impact that they have on your loved ones, your friends, and even people that you may never meet. That’s the beauty of it; reaching individuals that they might not have ever reached, but you took the risk and put it out there. There are always going to be individuals who are going to take exception to them, but you should be ready to defend them in an instant. Don’t let what others think persuade them, arrive at them independently and believe in them.

They reflect you and what you believe in. Don’t let others make you believe differently, just because theirs are different. It’s an indescribable feeling when you have one that nobody else has ever had, and how you got it, is the truly remarkable part. They are boundless, only to be released when you have to confidence and fortitude to share.
