Well it's all a chain effect... if you go on the message board less, you lose interest in the league, and you don't send in lineups.

Anyway, I understand the need for some people to act goofy and whatever and if this is your cup of tea, the OTBL might just be the pace for you. However, it's not really for me, so this is why I left. I couldn,t see any way I could regain any form of interest in that league.

That's in the police ball scene. I mean the scene where Edward Norton confesses to the plans of project mayhem, and the two guys try to get his balls. Tyler is effectively the ball-snatchee.

the reason why I'm not active in the OTBL.

Some people call it fun, or having a sense of humor. I guess it's not as funny as thinking wives should be happy their husband died so they can get rich. YMMV.

Rich

1) I have nothing against the people that call it fun or have a sense or whatever with the OTBL. If you have fun with it, then I'm happy for you. I'm glad the OTBL exists actually, it just wasn't for me. It's not like I said "People are so dumb out there, it's a stupid board and a stupid league, I'm out of there."

2) The second part of your message is pure sophism, it's a low blow imo. I never claimed that Bechler's wife should be happy he died, I said that in the circumstances being married probably advantages her financially vs. not being married. I would never claim that people should be happy their spouse died in order to get rich, I think that's filthy (hello Anna Nicole).

3) Why give me such a hard time here while your OTBL message board comment included "no problem here, LLN" and not much more?

4) moving on...
