Yeah, most people get 5s in those other leagues and those guys are more competitive overall than this league is. TMBers.........  Yeah, I feel we need to start relaxing our grading on these articles. |

how bout we just end articles? i agree. sounds good. why? they're fun to read. helps someone out if they want to put in time. they're fine. people just need to stop being such sticklers about shit. look at some other leagues, if people just show they put time in on it, people vote unanimously "5" every single time. We're just too greedy about keeping people from getting max points over here. JMO that the improvement of your players shouldn't be decided by the people you are directly competing against. |

some of you people who vote 3 really should try to do an article and see how much time and hard work it takes to get it done. Its beyond stupid that this article is getting 3's. Hell is was horrible my article the other day got 8 votes at 3 If you are going to low ball someone atleast explain why. You can see he put time to research this shit. Give the man some fucking credit and respect. /rant :facepalm: gotta bring up yourself again huh? Yes I am And you can :dealwithit: |

You gave me a low grade for mine a few days ago and I got 3 2 votes for something I had to look at every team, plus wrote an actual article.  I think the issue is that many (most?) don't bother reading it and just grade based on seeing pictures and reading the title and first sentence. |

I think the issue is that many (most?) don't bother reading it and just grade based on seeing pictures and reading the title and first sentence. I've made my criteria available many times. Showing you did a bit of research (more than just looking at teams and seeing how old players are) gets you a 4. Analyzing and/or critiquing that research is an automatic 5. Your article was just a long winded piece on Stockton with no overall relevance to the league except for the part at the end where you pretty much looked at player's ages and picked who would retire. I gave it a 3. You still got 4 points. |

I gave it a 3. You still got 4 points. Actually if you read the article I looked at every single one of those player's stats for the 2 years and their contract situation. Some guys were under 34, so age was only a part of the equation. In fact the biggest criteria was PT and contract. No big deal, but I would bet you were someone who didn't actually read it and just glossed over and did control+f for the pistons. Not to mention the picture comment. |

I actually discussed your article with you in shout. You can keep being a bitch or get over the fact that I didn't find it to be good. |

I don't car, but I wondered what changed your tune here. I don't care if you don't like mine or others, but you are not consistent with what you said about mine and what you are saying now. |

Why did this article not include team blocks?
Twolves blocked 19 shots in the first game of the season against the Nuggets
would have fucking voted a 0 had I noticed this earlier
