Rage against the CAS machine
I read Crook's blog with intrest, and it got me thinking....
When was the last time I rage retired a team?
Frankly I can't remember, although I came close to breaking my own rule and conceeding in
this game during T4 or 5.
I'll explain why I nearly pressed the big nasty concession button......
My Roid rage babes had taken one of the biggest kickings I have ever experienced here on FUMBBL, and with my arse still sore from it I accidentally activated a new norse team instead of the babes. During T4/5 things were looking bleak. the dorfs had forced me to score early, I was low on manpower. Having activated them in error, and having no desire to run with a norse team in the box, I ALMOST conceeded. I even told my opponent I was considering concession......HOWEVER.....I didn't, I managed to hold the dorfs for the win and my own personal rule of 'NEVER CONCEED' remained intact.
So. The things I have learned from this experience? Not a lot really, players die, and my legends on the babes have truly lived a charmed life to date. I suppose I just reinforced my own 'no concessions ever' rule, and the Buff Broski's will not be retired.
I also realised that I force other coaches to enjoy this game, I mean, who doesn't love sticking it to the clawPOMB coaches and bash their teeth in? And who doesn't love watching that?
So having analysed the events detailed above I believe that I, along with the other worshippers of the clawPOMB provide a valuable service here in FUMBBL when I kill all the mens OR my teams blood is spilled in large amounts all over the gridiron.....I am humbled that so many coaches spec all my games, it's nice to be popular!
Now I have to try to get the babes in shape for the BBB event next week :)
Hugs and kisses to you all, Calcium x

6 for Rage against the Machine + 2 for boring rambly post / 2 = rated 4. ;)

WTH is this Calcium.
You nearly conceded... whilst winning? And I don't mean your disingenuous description of the game. I just checked the replay.
So you took 1 cas on your drive... and scored. You were going to concede at 1-0 up and 10 vs 11?!!?!
Oh lord... you should delete this blog. It's embarrassing.

The main reason was that I had no desire to play with the team in the 1st place Chainsaw, and I was rebounding from my babes loss, so the way I viewed the game was probably skewed.
None the less, my blog is embarrassing? The fact is I DIDN'T conceed. And you calling my blog embarrassing after your recent blog exploits? LOL. You do make me laugh Chainsaw :)

How are my blogs embarrassing?
Oh... ups... I cleared the pitch in a major.
Oh... ups... pulled a Naama (for donations I might add) and the gyu conceded.
Yeah, hanging my head in shame. :P

Another point.
What does your norse team have to do with the main point you are trying make again?
How can you rage against the CAS machine...since the babes are a very large cog in the CAS machine in the box?
Why rage against CAS? embrace and celebrate it.
OR is is possible.
IF your legends get the beat down is only when the rage appears?
So in the spirit of the blog I have to say this.
Calcium has "grown" as a coach. He now embraces the CAS, both ways, and will no longer rage against the CAS..he will hug it and then eventually love it so much...he kills the CAS itself.
And then all we are left with is Elfball and run him off of FUMBBL for destroying this wonderful game.

I was about to rage against some Painstate, but then I realised I secretly love him in a big manly butch way :)

Nice to see one of your CW Babe's murdered. Interesting way to ready that team for the BBB winners event :) Not like they were expected to win it anyway heh.

7/13/2008 was when you conceded and rage retired after a bad SMACK game.

well I am glad you have come round to never conceding cal because the first time we fell out was over u conceding in a smack.. which to be fair was quite some time back.
so for a change I will not rate this as a 1 :-)
(dang I wish there was a 1.5 rate)
concessions should = banage no matter the reason if I had my way I would not even have the option in game to concede and make it an admin decision only, but I know the admins cant always be there, so this is not feasible .
rated 3 for not so shitty blog :-)

Every time Calcium brags about his Roid Rage Babes, Im going to remind him about why he needed to use the sponge.

And to think, this is the same coach that wanted to punch me in the mouth for fouling some of his elves a few years ago.
Clawpomb sure made you one of the tough guys Cal ;)

I'd still happily punch you in the mouth Fouly ;)
Thx to Synn for taking the time to look up my last concession, I couldn't be arsed!
As for CRP/ClawPOMB? It bathed me in the blood of kill all mens and I love the game so much more for it, despite it being inferior to LRB4 :)
