The computer picked my team and did a horrible job apparently, lol.
I picked Cedric Mullins in another league I was in and boy did he play out his ass last year! This year I thought he would break out but nope, slow going to where he is.

Hey fellas,
I’m not on here as much I’d like, but I felt compelled to reach out tonight. Excuse me in advance for the length of this post.By way of background, my first show was in 1992, and I’ve been a member of this league for somewhere in the range of 5 years. I was hoping to keep this off the boards, but after making multiple attempts to contact and resolve this issue with our commish (F Me/Brett), this seems to be the only option.The issue is: I made two add/drops late Friday night as I was nodding off to sleep. I thought I was in my other league (PJ Poster League 1B) which ends today. The two players I dropped were pitchers who I drafted and kept all year (Bieber and Berrios). I would have never dropped them if there was another week of play.
I immediately felt sick to my stomach and I emailed Brett immediately to notify him of the honest mistake.When I woke up on Saturday morning I felt worse, so I sent an email to the whole league. By Saturday night I hadn’t heard anything from Brett, so I told him I would not be starting the added players on Sunday as a gesture of good faith (since, in my view, they shouldn’t have been on my team).He made a few replies after that, expressing his hatred of streaming, but not addressing the issue. I told him I didn’t understand why streaming was relevant and asked him to initiate a league vote. He has not responded to this request.
As it stands, I am now facing Brett in the final.
There are essentially two options:
1) reverse the two add/drops; or
2) Brett will add one or both of the players on waivers (I can’t add them until they clear waivers) and use them against me.
As I told him earlier, it doesn’t sit right with me that the person who benefits most from my innocent mistake has the power to make this decision alone. I really think this should be put to a league vote.
Am I an idiot for making this mistake? 100%
But I’ve been playing fantasy sports for over 25 years (I’m in PJ baseball, football, and hockey leagues) and have never messed up like this. But I have been commissioner in leagues where innocent mistakes were made, and I always did the right thing.
I respectfully ask that Brett does the right thing here. While I’ve enjoyed being a part of this league, I will not be a part of it next year unless Brett takes timely action.
Thank you and goodnight,

Waaaaaaa
I replied several times in real life. You make some attempt to argue your case on a rock band forum and share your first concert date, as if that means anything relative to fantasy baseball leagues
You screwed up. You admitted it with a message you yourself titled "I am an idiot".
I denied manipulation of the league to cover for your error. This is the role the commissioner plays.
You cooked up a conspiracy theory and 2 known outcomes. Even brought it here in some weak effort to try and shame me somehow, or to get your own way.
Neither of those outcomes you imagined or put forth are reality.
Now you advance into the finals just as if none of the campaigning and complaining ever happened. I don't have either of your players that you dropped.
By the way - one of the players you wanted back badly enough to whine about everywhere is still available. You didn't even put in a claim for him.
This is embarrassing for you.
I'm sorry you made the error. This isn't a conspiracy
Nobody is out to get you. Go ahead and pick up the player who is left.

Thinking on this, it really is a microcosm of our society.
A person messes up.
The rules don't support anything this person imagines should be how their error is somehow reconciled.
The person imagines the powers that be are somehow out to get them, personally, because the rules don't change to accommodate their own personal circumstances
The person makes false claims, making claims against others which are bogus, fueled by their own self concern
Everything is unfair.
Person threatens to exclude themselves in the future because they didn't get their way
Life goes on.
World keeps spinning.
Hopefully you don't storm my house and try to overturn the results. Lmckenney24 has your player now...hopefully you don't know where he lives. He didn't pay me to get your players.
The other player is still available. You have a chance to get "half justice" for yourself
Seriously, this is a total joke.

Hey Brett,
A few things to consider..
When you drop a player, you can’t make a waiver claim for him. I just picked up Berrios, but had to wait for him to clear waivers. You tried to pick up Bieber, just had lower priority.The point that matters is that you had split loyalties; a conflict of interest. As commish, you are tasked with making decisions that are best for the health of the league/fairness; as owner, you want to beat me in the final. It was not your call to make alone.So yeah, whatever happens I’m out next year.1992-07-21 Vancouver
