So, how did you lose your virginity?
Senior year of HS at my at the time GF, her dad left to run some errands we went into her room to bone. I was nervous, it took me awhile to get it up and the sex was short and bad.
Tell us a little bit about yourself.
Law school grad currently living in Seattle and working for a social media analytics startup which is cool and way less stressful than being an attorney. Outside of work I am huge Oregon fan so following them takes up a bunch of my time. Lately I have been really into running and training for Marathons ( I run the Eugene Marathon this weekend and am trying to qualify for Boston #humblebrag) and that has been a great experience and has led me to make some decisions i thought I would never make like becoming a vegan. Which, by the way is actually not that hard and I feel great. Highly recommend everyone try it, especially Timpig.
Other than that I am a pretty boring guy, I read a lot and watch TV. I dont like doing things socially because it takes effort and im an introvert. When I was single I liked going out to pick up girls, but Ive been in a serious relationship for awhile and dont like going out anymore.
Do you remember what brought you to sim league?
Saw the thread on TMB and kept asking enough that I finally got an invite to take over my beloved Hornets.
We all have that one GM that we just hate to deal with and talk with, who is that GM for you and why?
Dump. Dude never responds to my DMs and its wack. Everyone else is cool.
What is the best sporting event you have attended?
This is a tough question. Three games come to mind:
1.03 Michigan vs Oregon in football at Autzen. Michigan comes in highly rated and with Chris Perry being the early Heisman favorite and Oregon has no shot to win the game. Michigan gets stubborn and refuses to throw the ball to Braylon Edwards against our shitty freshman DBs and instead trys to pound it against the only strength of our D which was Haloti Ngata and Igor Olshansky in the middle of our D. Michigan can't score, Oregon blocks a punt for a TD, Jason Fife plays his one good game as a Duck and the Autzen crowd lifted us to a victory. Ive never been in a stadium that loud before or after. Just a great experience.
2. 2012 Rose Bowl. Oregon hadnt won a RB since like 1917 and it was a good game against Wisconsin with some drama at the end. Hearing Chip Kelly say "You've waited 95 years for this" while holding the Trophy gave me chills.
3. 2012 NBA First round of the playoffs. Blazers vs Mavs. Game 4. Blazers are down 18 going into the 4th and about to go down 3-1 in the series, B-Roy decides to go fucking nutz and scores 22 straight points to eek out a W. Unreal seeing that in person.
Who is your favorite athlete and why?
Marcus Mariota. Because he is the perfect human and football player. He helped take my school to heights I couldn't have imagined and represents Oregon in the best way possible.
If you could make one change to sim league, what would that change be and why?
We have to find a way to make bigs matter more. A player like Karl Malone shouldnt be free agent fodder. It shouldnt be a bad thing to be better at Inside shooting, it makes no sense for bigs to have the worst FG percentage in the league.
In my opinion, you are one of the best at evaluating players in sim league and finding hidden gems. Obviously, you do not want to give away too much but anything you would care to share about what you look for?
Such an honor to get this question. Wow. Wont give anything away though.
In life we all have those teams and fanbases that we don't like or cannot stand. What fanbase is that for you and why?
University of Washington fans. Every single one of them can get fucked. We beat their ass 12 years in a row in football and all any of them would talk about is the natty they won in 90 when Im sure they were like 3 years old. Trash school, trash fans I really hate these fuckers more than anything. Never been a more obnoxious fan base that doesnt know shit about their sport or has a bigger sense of entitlement.
Who is your favorite musician or band?
Right now its probably Chance the Rapper. Love the dudes sound and his music has actual meaning, but it isn't shitty like when Kendrick trys to be political. Also a big Kanye Stan, dude is a genius.
What's your favorite movie?
Tie between Good Will Hunting and Jerry Mcguire. Both unbelievably quotable. Good Will Hunting is definitely the "better" movie, but Jerry McGuire is just great. Rod Tidwell is an American legend and I still have cushlash.
What's your favorite television show?
The Wire. If this isn't your favorite show then you have bad taste.
What do you feel have been your best and worst moves as a GM so far?
My worst move was trading 3 firsts to move up and get Bibby. I liked where my head was at with getting a good PG, but looking back its pretty clear that Bibby was never gonna be elite and traded the assets like he would be.
Best move was trading for Detlef, I think I just essentially gave up Spud Webb and and a first ? Dude turned into a all league SF and helped me win a ring.
What has been your worst experience in terms of trying to make a trade?
Worst experiences was when I came into the league just getting taken advantage of the older GMs and having them explain to me why I should make certain moves.
Which GM in the league annoys you the most in shout (You have to pick somebody)?
Its a love hate thing, but probably Ian. Annoyed is not the best word for it though, because I just take it for what it is and enjoy the douchy comments. He makes shout better, even though he is annoying.
Who do you think is the worst GM in each division?
Pacific=Taco. I love you Taco, but you make terrible decisions.
Central=Lip. Just no direction, no hope, no plan.
Atlantic=MJ. I'll try to not beat a dead horse, but holy shit this dude makes awful choices. In his slight defense he has gotten pretty unlucky in the draft.
Midwest= Billy King. I think he will be really good when he starts to learn the game because he is active and seems to understand it, but at this point im sticking with it.
Any final words or shout outs?
Ive been robbing peter to pay paul and my team is about to collapse with no assets to rebuild with.
