What you don't get is the right to do whatever you damn well please with the $5000 that the 50 members of the group collectively invested. What you don't get is the right to be a complete douchebag and lose $3100 of that $5000 the very first week by completely ignoring the wishes of everybody else in the group and betting the entire bankroll without a consensus from the group about the strategy. What you don't get is the right to decide that the single most important rule of the group doesn't apply to you. The rule you decided to ignore goes to the basic integrity of the group, it was designed to prevent anyone from using insider information about the group's picks to steal a percentage of the group's winnings, and it was your ****ing idea in the first place. But as soon as you got an opportunity, you announced to the group that you were going to ignore the rule, and there wasn't a damn thing we could do to stop you. And you completely alienated and pissed off everybody else who wanted to help set the lineups. You thought there was nothing that could be done to stop either of those things. It turns out there was. If you want to air all of the dirty laundry from the Fanduel Forum in the open forum, then be prepared to have the other 49 members of the group call you out for your bullshit. However, if you have one lick of common sense, you will simply shut the **** up and pray that this all blows over. Last edited by Lex Luthor; 10-25-2015 at 05:42 AM.. |

Who could have predicted -a bunch of idiots going into business with Hootie would end in disaster -a few goofs from a message board thinking they'd corner the DFS market would lose 2/3 of their money the first week -hootie, who tells us all day long what a master gambler he is, would lose his shirt -hootie would melt down blaming someone else -draft tabulators getting pantsed -it's nobody's fault |

If a miracle happened and there was a big pot that was split between one of the group's entries and one of Hootie's private entries, there is not a ****ing chance in hell that Hootie would shared that money with the group. It was obvious that he was lying his ass off about that. |

I wanted to see how the whole thing would play out, and I can afford to spend $100 for the entertainment value. If I had "invested" that money thinking Hootie was going to make me rich, then I would be an idiot. I seriously doubt that anybody really expected to make money off of Hootie. Having said all of that, I am very glad that OnTheWarPath and the others have taken over the lineups. Now there is a chance that at the end of the season there may actually be a little money in the account to split up. With Hootie the compulsive gambler who HAS to have action every week, there is no way there would by anything left at the end. |

Can we all agree that this idiot should never be unbanned, no matter who "vouches" for him this time? (whatever that means) |

Like a heroin addict, Hootie's inability to control his own behavior wound up costing him everything. I probably wouldn't have banned him from the site, although I understand completely why he was banned. I would preferred to kick him out of the group and then pound him relentlessly in the open forum until he posted an "I'm leaving forever" thread. |
