I've been monkeying around at Rotoworld for a couple weeks now, getting my FF groove on, and guess who I ran into?
He's just as condescending, arrogant, and ignorant as always too. I've been going rounds with him this past week, and it's just like old times.
A debate we were having led me to dig up some old SO posts from 2013, and boy oh boy did I uncover some lovely gems.
He's advocating hard for the drafting of AP in the first round this year, and I was preaching caution. I said that the most recent situation that mirrors AP is SJax in 2013. Same age and career carry totals range. Both have been bell cow backs for offenses that have absolutely leaned on them for the better part of a decade. So I went into the 2013 archives to see what people were saying about Sjax back then.
And whatya know?? Ole Elf boy was pushing for Sjax back then too. Making the case about how much better ATL is of a situation for him, how he's going to have 16 total TDs, crazy amounts of yards, yada yada yada and completely disregarding the fact that Sjax was 30 years old. Meanwhile, he was barking about how Lesean McCoy was the worst possible first round pick anyone could make. If you were here at the time, you might remember it well.
So I went ahead and copy/pasted how incredibly wrong he was to show how he failed epically, and was advocating for people to jump blindly on AP now and set up to make the same mistake twice. It's turned into quite the ego protecting session, Ill tell you that. He then goes into archives to pull out predictions that he made that were right in order to try to counter act it. It was a pretty funny dog and pony show. He also got really mouthy about how he didn't get banned here and instead that everyone was a bunch of pussies who couldn't handle his brilliance, so he took his sage wisdom elsewhere.
The dude never changes.
