Can we play 'guess the names'?

How good does coach B think he is? What standard does coach B ascribe to ‘good’ in saying that you, I mean coach A, aren’t good? |

This definitely seems like the logical conclusion from the data presented. We know a priori that Coach B is correct when he says that Coach A is not good period, because just look at his dumb ugly face. But Coach B played Coach A, a known scrub and loser, 13 times and could only manage 2 wins to 4 losses. There is a large degree of randomness in Blood Bowl, so flukes and upsets are quite common, but this is a large enough sample size that one could reasonably expect a competent coach to give a better showing for themselves. Ergo, Coach B must also be a real stinker of a coach to do so poorly against a notorious incompetent such as Coach A. Both of them are terrible at Blood Bowl, QED. |

I suspect coach A and coach B are both good at bb, but not so much at having fun |

I wish fires, floods, and earthquakes on Coach B's native land.
Did Coach B ever give a reason as to why they do not participate in tournaments? |

It's not "fair" enough using some esoteric and self serving rubric nobody takes seriously. |

You should see me and my friends when we argue. I shit you not out of all the things we can possibly argue about we argue about comic books and pro wrestling. I'm pretty sure 99.9999% of the time these arguments degenerate to name calling and eventually accusing each other of racism. Eventually we get over it and find something else to argue over. It's a vicious cycle and I don't know why we do this to each other but I'm sure our friendship would suck if we didn't.
Edit: Unless I'm missing something I hope my post in some way has anything to do with what TC wrote about. |
