Title: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: PowerMan on July 05, 2010, 06:10:47 PM
To those who laughed at my trade about a month ago Barlow ---> Bartel,

I have the last laugh now! :)
Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: rory on July 05, 2010, 06:16:35 PM
Hmm, dont see how.
In the end you traded him so did we, but we got 4 extra games out of him and probably more cash too so I think we won :-*
Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: Master Q on July 05, 2010, 06:32:51 PM
 :P Yeh, Laugh. But we also get to laugh at you, thinking you did well when we can just trade him now.

Were you laughing when he scored 151, or what about when he scored 146?

Bartel scored a nice 79, great score ;)

Post by: Justin Bieber on July 05, 2010, 07:18:43 PM
Either way, he was getting traded out :P. Still did his job before he went down (what a solider).

Yep, in the end we all lose, we wont get to see him play anymore :'(

Hope hes back round 1

Post by: CFC 1979 on July 05, 2010, 08:07:33 PM

What a goose!!!

The poor guy has a badly broken leg and your some how using that to justify your trades  ???.  Get a grip dude...
Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: barlowgun on July 05, 2010, 08:34:50 PM
im still laughing at you now Powerman

you missed out on some larger scores whilst bartel scored shower  :P

I know i got more points out of it then you did and + he gained more $$$ over those 4 rounds...we can use him to trade to almost any other midfielder without having to use a double trade for $$$ for you if you wanted a joey or boyd would of been low in $$$

Overall you lose
hahahahahahaha still laughing

Barlow v Bartel last month, one averaged 101, the other 123, one gained $10K, the other $70K.

Noticed you haven't replied to anyone after your spud post powerman, I guess I would be hiding too after the overwhelming evidence has come out that your trade and your comment is insignificant.

All hail to Powerman, who has wound everyone up for 3 pages now in this thread.

Maybe I should continue.... here is laughing at you all that I traded in Kayler Thompson and his breakever is almost the lowest in the entire league!!!!
Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: lozmeister on July 07, 2010, 03:56:19 PM
Lol...I'll continue this sarcastic tribute to PowerSpud further.

Although he costed me at least 3 league victories with two scores of 16 and a 32 and possibly a spot in the finals, I kept Tippett and I can now trade him out for a $5,000 profit.

Who's laughing now!!

Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: carpsi on July 07, 2010, 04:11:37 PM
This post is hilarious.
Powerman hasnt posted since his first post.
Thats what makes me laugh the most.
So to embarrass him and for everyone to let him know how brainless he is, everytime this post hits the second page I am going to bump it so it hits the top again so more people can attack him for his stupidity.

Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!

Sticky it up!

Powerman, just like your team, that trade was terrible..

I'm tipping Barlow would of scored more in that 4 week period then Bartel. Not sure Bartel is the best SC pick either. Im happy I can trade Barlow > Montags, sure I wouldn't of been able to do it a month ago!!

Powerman for coach of Port Adelaide!!! Actually he can do better than that average position, Powerman for Premier of South Australia!

So did anyone get any feedback from the calls to get Monty to add a Powerman icon to the gameday live scoring???

Just the head of Powerman would be fine and it could go to the player who makes the worst decision each game eg. Giving away a 50m penalty in the centre square when you team is up by 5 points in the last minute of play, direct turnover to the opposition to change the game's momentum into the opposition's favour, etc

I've just heard it on good authority that Powerman was behind the inside push to sack Mark Williams.

The Powerman actually has a lot of power (at least in Adelaide) I'd be careful what you say about Mr Powerman, or as I prefer to call him, Sir!

Don't be silly, Collingwood has Port under its thumb.

Also, the powerman icon should be for a player who celebrates a goal when it is a point. Powerman... always overestimating his score.

It is Day 5 here at Powerman watch. Although we have not heard from the famous man in 4 days, there were reported sightings of him 2 days ago, most probably surveying the scene of his humiliation. Since then though nothing, and the entire nation watches, and waits, hoping that they will one day be blessed with Powerman's wisdom once again...

Title: Re: Who's laughing Now!
Post by: hawk_88 on July 09, 2010, 10:06:25 PM
The picture needs to be uploaded to the web somewhere. The easiest way to do that is via imgur.com . There are many sites like this but I find this one very easy to use. Just follow the instructions on the website. Once it is uploaded, they will provide you with an address which you will put inside the image tags.

e.g.

In all honesty i think he is embarrassed to log on under his name again, i will be watching to see if he is ever on Chat during a game!

To think he was so good in trading out Barlow 4 weeks ago......go figure  ???

Haven't been in the SC forum much since cause I really don't take SC seriously (hence the trade Barlow--> Bartel should tell you something), but was recently made aware of all this and have read all the posts in this thread, classic stuff from everyone and probably well deserved. (laughed most of the way through reading it)

All i can say is here's the real culprit for all of this

(http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/4787/paultheoctopus.jpg) (http://img14.imageshack.us/i/paultheoctopus.jpg/)
^^^only joking of course^^^

In all seriousness though this was not meant to be taken in the way this has been taken, so too all those people who I might've offended I do say SORRY!. including to the gun himself BAAAAARLOW!.  :D. Hope you get back too your best when you return.

PS: as punishment for my bad I will pick Barlow next season and keep him in my side all sesaon, regardless weather or not he plays!

Yep. DILLIGAF  ;)

* I think it was a 120 day warning  :D

I thought it was appropriate that I share this thread because some 'Coaches' have achieved status inside a similar time frame and may have missed some of the gold once shared amongst us.
Its the monument in The FF Hall Of Shame ;D

I think m0nty missed this thread,

How did Hawk become a MOD after his work here  :P
Haha, still holding it against others for not getting Mod yourself? :P.

Gotta say this thread is a classic 8). What's even better is that Powerman stuck around and has done some great stuff for the forum! (Fixture lists with colour coating for teams against other ones).

The anniversary for this thread is coming up :D. Thanks to Powerbug for the reminder 8).

Certainly was a funny read if you haven't read it. Powerman did bounce back though and contributed some very handy fixture lists the years following.
