i guess i should have emailed my picks to Journeyman.... Ricky that is extremely cheap and a candy ass move, you are ahead by 41 for the month, and you post the exact same plays as i do 4 minutes after i post them. Real classy move!!!

Agree with you Stump...that's a pathetic way to win a contest. Ricky must be so proud of himself.

Journeyman · Aug 31, 2007

That is terrible.

SportSavant · Aug 31, 2007

Stump, if its any consoloation, this joker did the same shit in the NHL contest earlier this year. (and other contests as well)

He was continuously criticizing the work that I do, complaining about decisions, and being an overall pain in the ass. No appreciation what so ever.

he does not understand fair play and being a gentlemen about things.

At that time, I banned him from future contests, and I was actually going to kick him out of this contest, but I decided not too since he had already paid. (obviously that was a mistake)

If it is any consolation to you at all, he is already banned from future RX contests.

The funny thing is, I was going to give him an amnesty and let bygones be bygones, and let him play in this years contests, but obviously these actions today have solidified my initial decision.

No problem SS, I guess its partly my fault because i should have emailed my picks. No guarantee that i would have won, but it appears most likely it would have been Ricky, Tomorrows Newspaper, or myself.

We all want to win money, but I think the posters/mods having integrity is why the contests are so popular and fun.

I posted my thoughts to him, I'm assuming there will be no comment back, so we will see who finishes ahead in the year end standings, and if for some reason we are close, you can be damn sure i will email my picks.

thanks for the support

Journeyman · Aug 31, 2007

Ricky, you are banned from future contests, sorry but we have no choice.

We take a lot of pride in putting out the best contests with fair play, this was a weak move...and you have been warned in the past....all this for a potential $500 win? unreal.

Ricky Steve pulled some of the same crap in the NHL contest also. I don't remember the exact details but I do remeber that he was giving SS a real hard time. That was a cheap move indeed by a classless individual. Unreal. Hang in there Stump, you at least deserved a shot to win it and I'm sorry you didn't get it.

Glad to see this guy banned for good.

wannabewhale · Aug 31, 2007

I had the same opportunity last month and I made the decision to post first and go with my 3 selections--I lost-but it was the right thing to do.

wannabewhale · Aug 31, 2007

I know it is not right BUT--I say let Stump change 1 play or have a 3 team email playoff tomorrow--nice to see Ricky get beat

stump · Aug 31, 2007

Thanks wannabe but i'll stand with my plays, there are others it could have impacted as well, i know Tomorrows Newspaper is close, maybe all 3 plays will lose, and TN will win.

If that happens, I'll split it with you Stump. I want to pull this out more than ever now.
