    Hopefully me standing my ground and holding on my suicidal swerve pick and going down with the ship, gave him pause and discombobulated him for a few seconds.:lol:

    It's just a game
    this league is my guilty pleasure
    first and foremost you need luck with the 50/50 fights to win this thing

    Bladerunner and you
    are the best ever
    never out of the top 5
    would be a shame if you were not here next year
    i really hope you stay



    @Drinquor + @kirk

    maybe next year
    each member
    can only change 10 times a year of a pick
    just a suggestion

    I'm definitely torn man. But it's a distraction. 2019 will be a busy year for me as well. I'm the kind of guy who takes games too seriously. Although I keep everything in and blow up in the lockeroom as opposed to on the field :lol: . Just the way I'm wired I guess. Will definitely think about it. But I'm still leaning towards taking a break.

    You're a perennial top 5 as well. Don't be so humble.

    Stick around, just to keep your All Time Rankings placement high. Aim low like a Top 10, take the pressure off.

    I don't remember what year i won the title
    but maybe 100 fights were counted and there were 10-15 participants
    that year the league was in crisis because a lot of people left and updates were not done for 4-5 months .
    my number 1 all time ranking is overrated
    it is based on quantity over all those years and being in the top 10 each year

    will pm MexicanInsanity about what happened today
    i suspect he is a young kid

    Didn’t know I was in a WBK match. Only planned to stick around for the tournament but I guess I’ll finish this match. Will do specific picks for tomorrow’s fights.

    I was semi tempted to pick Hart myself. He performed with credit in the first fight and gave Ramirez all he could handle. Don't think Ramirez will take him lightly this time around though. But a Hart upset is far from impossible.

    Any of you have kids? Im about to have my second child any week now.... Im imagining that trying to handle two kids by myself (wife works most of the week) is going to be comically bad :lol: Just curious if any of you have experience with that sort of thing lol.

    Will be an end to an era man, I totally understand 'retiring' though. Youre an ATG at it and the league will be less without you around, but again, I absolutely understand.... for me I had to retire picking on every fight because I just didnt have the time anymore to research all the fights... started taking L's on fights I didnt research, and so didnt want to water down my record :lol:

    Like I said though, you are one of the ATGs here and youll be missed. Thanks for bringing the quality of your picks and posts to the league man.

    Congratulation Kirk! Can’t imagine having 2.
    I have one 5 years old girl and it’s already driving me mad. Both me and my wife are working as well so it’s quite tiring.

    Ya, took a significant dip from last year (might hit around 14k posts this year, had over 17k last year) but overall its been our 3rd biggest year. Hard to top last year though, last years numbers were insane.
