Fantasy Football What Would You Do In My Shoes? - Page 9

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 12-27-2015, 04:10 PM

I'm in 2 Fantasy Football leagues this year, both a $100 buy in. A 12 team league that Pest is the commish of, I'm about to win for an $800 payday. The other is an 8 team work league where 1st place is $500. Unbelievably, I'm about to pull off the upset of the year and win that one as well.

Problem is, the commissioner lost his job with us and doesn't have the money to pay me. He's not a violent, fighting type of individual. Kicking his ass won't print money, but would probably motivate him to sell his PS4, and other shit off to get me paid. Would you do it? I'm really not inclined too, but there is a principle behind this so I am genuinely considering leaning on him to motivate him to get me paid.

The fact is, if it were me under no circumstances would I spend the money if I were the commish. At all. And everyone already tells me I'm too nice. The thing is, I really don't need the money, but could definitely use it, and if the roles were reversed I'd hope someone would show me some grace. While I wouldn't expect it too happen, I really do believe you should be the change you wish to see in the world. I'm pretty conflicted here. Genuinely. What would you do?

Unrelated but what happens with a tie in the championship game and a split head to head?

In my league, we go to bench scoring for a tiebreaker.

I'd nag the **** out of him. He basically stole money from every member of the league. That's not OK.

Should be no confliction. He was in charge of the funds and they shouldn't have been touched. He's a thief until he pays them back.

This is why I have no qualms for getting assessed a fee for LeagueSafe or w/ever it's called.

Also, why I should probably push for our bigger money baseball league to move to such a system..

Hootie?

If he has shit used for entertainment to sell he should do so. It wasn't his money to spend. It probably would depend on how much I liked the guy to be honest.

Either way it's a dick move.

Any updates?

****!!!

I'm sorry guys. I haven't been on here much this week. I hit him up and told him I expected to get paid, and quickly. Suggested pawning some shit if that's what he needed to do. He came through within 24 hours and to his credit, I thought it was $500 but it was actually $600 and he paid it off.

Because of your threat, someone started selling drugs.

Hope you can still sleep at night.

He turned himself out to pay you.

Hey, if he was able to enjoy himself in the process of it AND get me paid, more power to him. #PossibleFruitLoopAlert

Well, Flop, what I would do is forget about all that FFL shit and learn how to play guitar.

That's probably not the best move YOU could make in the immediate, but you should consider it sometime down the road. (the guitar thing, not forgetting the FFL)

I was just sayin' what I'D do.
