LOL That has nothing to do with me withdrawing, Blue. LOL Hell, I just decided I'd make an a$$ out of myself by coming in last .... killer instinct ... more like fear on my part ...... gggg I had started working on a dealie which would remove the "contest" part for me .... decided in the throes of the final days frenzy in the last one .... for example ... I found myself jumping in there and trading the full allotment of my bullets for one or two days .... and there I'd spent the entire contest trading 5 .... so the peer pressure "did have an effect" and that was not what I desired. Well, I'll send out some PMs next week and do a better job of explaining and perhaps I'll have my plan put together in a cohesive manner .... My feelings are best revealed in this old joke .... >>>>> Bad football team is getting stomped on in the game. I mean reaaaaaaaaaly whupped ..... score is 64-0 Coach of the losing team is wanting time to fly so he tells the QB --- NO more passes ... NO more fancy plays ... NO more running out of bounds ..... JUST GET THE GAME OVER WITH .... Now he has this rather solid and dependable fullback with no brains, no speed, no moves, but he CAN hold on to the ball and not fumble .... Coach says to the QB --- when we got possession ---give the ball to Calhooon and send him up the middle. Sixteen plays later (4 punts incl) and poor ol Calhoon has been beaten to within an inch of his life ... bleeding from the pounding, sore from the severe hitting, horrible headache from the jolting, cause the third stringers on the winning team are trying their best to make an impression on their coach and are tackling hard and with much abandon. QB runs a QB draw, gets hit hard, fumbles but recovers it himself..... Coach screams at him from the sidelines and calls time out .... When he sheepishly comes to the sideline and the coach is yelling ---- what the hell are you doing .... I told you to GIVE THE BALL TO CALHOON ..... QB tells the coach right back and quick .... "Coach, Calhoon says he don't want the damn ball no more" LOL I do feel relieved ...... ggggg
