well...I'm probably stepping in where I don't belong, especially since I'm not in this year's Secret Santa nor have I been in the past .
But I just want to say something.

I've been accepted here from day one, and I am not often in the majority. One reason I don't join this yearly event is simply because I am not a follower of any Christian denomination. But I love everyone who is and derive great pleasure from reading these Santa threads. It makes me feel wonderful to see how my friends here are so caught up in the spirit and lessons that define this Christmas thing you all have...a vicarious joy that comes from the way you all do it. This thread epitomizes the amazing generosity that is unique to our cbid community.

So I just want to say I am saddened to see the shunning of a member. And in a Christmas special no less!

Not everyone is universally liked, it's not realistic. But I've always thought there are certain special times when people put aside their differences in the spirit of these times.
For some reason I thought Christmas was one of those special times with special meaning and lessons by which to live...

I'm having second thoughts about posting this, but it really saddened me and I don't even have a relationship with this individual.

Feel free to tell me to myob, or use even stronger language and I will completely understand. I really will understand. I'm rereading it and it truly sounds holier-than-thou. But I decided to not delete.

And I'll follow along silently in any event, it's one of my favorite rites of passage here...but I didn't want to hold that in in case others felt uneasy too.

Sorry, in a way.

Frank, I tried. I truly did. Took some deep breaths and tried again. The “shunned” not being a part of this is probably the best route forward for a bunch of us.

The quote of “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me”. Is an appropriate cautionary measure for a great tradition on here.

I'm glad you have a handful of players on your SS trade, and meanwhile, I am hosting one with 32 participants so far on an alternative site.

I really liked you. I guess I kicked that bucket over today.

Oh boy, sheds a little more light onto CL7’s true personality.

I can’t imagine what the messages to Stinger and Whistle were like but given the one sample, they musta been doozies! Gonz

Although the lyrics don’t necessarily match her self-denial message, the title to this Warren Zevon song is perfect:

I'm well aware of the situation as well and to be honest I saw this crap coming from a mile away. That's why when she sent the PM to join the pick'em I chose to ignore it. If you happen to accidentally come across her post on other SM , you'll probably shake your head like myself.



Corey, I'm currently getting some other stuff sorted out but if I can join I will, what's the deadline to let you know?

After the scheetbirds who have joined and left BOTL hanging on the SS trades it’s ESPECIALLY important to filter problems. Other BOTL (who BTW chose to be left UNNAMED in some instances) stepped up to fill in where guys were left hanging, now THAT is the seasonal spirit.

From personal experience this can get spendy in some instances when you’re lucky enough to draw a name you were REALLY hoping for. I never got burned in this but participated in a couple that had a leech. I know not everyone reads between the lines but some things have been posted subtly that haven’t been caught by some questioning this decision.

Corey took up the mantle and it’s his football to screw, so buy a ticket for the ride or STFU I say.

Maybe we can get ThrillaGorilla to post some of the BS he had to deal with in his years running it......Jason took for granted what BOTL meant because he is close with some of the finest dudes there are to know.

Without a link to said 32 participant SS, it’s all hot air.

Palama,

I want to, but I would never let this site get destroyed and tainted by your presence. It is a good thing. It will Hopefully be a good secret for as long as it remains. But what I can do is post pics of the damages.

Gamecock, you did reply. You lying sack.... you said I joined at the very end and wait for next one. I wish I could restore the inbox I cleared.

Stinger - you said we were done with our dealings. But you want cigars?? Make up your mind. If I can screwed out of sticks from bet on here (way more than 5), then you can too, obviously. Life will go on.

Hahahahaha! That is totally rich! Backpedaling like a 4.9 cornerback covering a 4.3 wideout before the ball is even snapped.

Like Ron said earlier, you sure can make stuff up on the fly. Your “spinning” is top-notch. Kudos to you for deflecting and “saving” your site / SS run. The 32 participants should be alerted to the fact that you saved them by warding off my destroying and tainting potential...why don’t you send them here and show them what you did? Heroines aren’t born everyday you know....

With that being said, no need to post pics. They wouldn’t prove anything...you know, kinda like doing a spelling bee. Without access to your purported site, anyone can post pictures of cigars, liquor and swag and call them “damages” from their SS. If you haven’t figured it out by now, you have very little or no credibility any longer so anything you claim would be met with great dubiousness.

Cigarlady,

Can’t tell if you are stating that those games are being played or what. If you are trying to get someone to take the teams on the right hand side there should be spreads. If you are thinking that those should be straight up, you are out of your mind.

Additionally, I would like to finish up our dealings with each other this weekend. We can make a wager and if I win you send the ten, we make a wager and you win (then we are even) or if no wager, I would like you to send the 5er you owe me.

After this, I don’t really feel like doing any trading, wagering, et all with you. Please do not “accept” a wager, PIB, etc in which you might have to pick me up.

Much appreciated,
Thanks, David

David,

These were not games posted for you... But for the entire thread. There are a couple others on here betting, if you didn't notice. They are just the games for week 8 I posted.. and as you can see I did not choose a team or add the points.

I don't care if we trade anymore or not. I have no idea why you felt like you needed to state that.


stinger88 wrote:
I just want us square. As you have stated in the past, no real need to PM you. I kept it civil but just wanted it stated for you. I know there is more than us on here, I figured you might be looking for action on those games.

I am still at the same address. Send away.

This is why I have never really wanted to trade. Seems like the majority of the guys on this forum are honest (about sending cigars at least), but there's always the chance that you'll get burnt.

Nope. That's not on you Frank. You spoke your piece, that's allowed.

As to your not participating, you do realize that "Yule" and "Winter Solistice" festival/feasts way pre-date Christianity and were co-opted by the churchs to placate the pagans?

So, I would say that there are no really valid religious barriers to this one for ya. It pre-dates us all, and is about spirit and hope for the future. I'd say you've got that in spades buddy. ThumpUp

I’m a Gemini so behind the mellow guy facade is a mean MF. ram27bat

I kinda keed but you’re so right, the Wench really got my blood boiling but not for anything she’s ever done directly to me but rather chit she pulled on some of the finest BOTL on this site. That and not ever taking responsibility for chit. It’s one of my pet peeves and when she constantly placed blame on others or simply blew off the facts, it just reached a zenith (...or nadir, depending on which way you look at it...) in this thread.

I know one thing, the sooner she leaves, the happier the site will be...but I truly doubt that she’ll leave peaceably, she’s such a pill that she’ll linger for a bit and make things miserable for many of us. Then again, I block her posts so don’t initially see them unless someone quotes her or I actually unblock her to just peek in.

Palama, of course it's too notch 😁 I told you previously I'm quick on my feet. I can't remember who made the quote earlier that I was "animalistic" ... But agreed. I am. Due to my past.

Stinger, what a bargain! The problem is, you couldn't force either one.

Anyone who has a problem with me, call me. I would like you to air out your feelings. 872-333-9257. If I'm busy and don't answer the call or text, I will do so asap.

You've got a good heart Frank and that's not anything to be sorry for. I've similarly reserved judgment not knowing chit about the details.

However, I've met the Mad Hawaiian. While mad/angry is hard to envision, his hits would indicate a case could be made for mad/insane. Regardless, I guarantee his presence would be a boon to any gathering of B/SOTLs be they on line or real life.

In short, Bee, STFU
