I think we will have to be lenient with slight differences. Only so many different kinds of fries.
I think your [Ranch] filter was off. I fixed it for you.

Has this guy owned a sports franchise before?

That was the disclaimer for team owner.

When you appear in the middle of the night in this league you become my enemy.

Not quite a rival because that was a financial decision (P.S. Cap, can we revert the Rivalry chart to what it used to be pre draft category?) The Platypi are the true rivals of the Ducks.

We can do whatever you want - I have to re-do that chart now anyway. Just explain it to me like you would to Thatcher Venmo.

I was just looking for a graphic to illustrate there are barely 20 choices for different kinds of fries.

I agree that we can be lenient, but only if you cut out that picture.

I have been informed that in exchange for allowing her wish, we will be purchasing her a Try Hard Garbage hoodie. I'm away overnight, so I'll sort that when I get home tomorrow night, Cap.

I have absolutely no idea what constitutes Spicy Waffle Fries. If you think I care,

@Lord Defect How many Pet Peeves immediately came to your mind?

Well in the beginning we each picked our individual team rivals. I picked the Playtpi and I was chosen due to the Doritos debacle.

When we did the Rival Owner Meme Pick you updated it so that everyone would have one rival.

The original charts in the phases before that category were right.

In a way that TV would understand:

I want to watch Encanto (Platypi) but Mickey (Chimps) is on screen.

Mickey (Chimps) still wants Bluey (Desert Ducks).

Dies irae is an excellent pick lol @Beef Invictus

There are so many dimensions to it. Does the thought of them going flaccid not bother him if he can re-fill them with a bicycle pump once a week? Every day?
There's similar things to "treat" erectile dysfunction. Squeeze the balls. Not kidding.

What I want to know is do they remain bony? Is it like a tire, where even though it's flat it's still thick hard rubber?

So someone will go get that original chart for me, and then when @Beef Invictus gives me his rival, I will add it - right?

If Beef wants me as a frenemy, I can change my rivary. I think we just had an uneven split at the time of rival selection and so I was the odd man out. I think geographically I was angling for Defect but for some reason he got snapped up quickly.

You could pick whoever you wanted.

It only went to only one rivalry so that the Karl Marx category worked.

Please bring your appliance to every game.

It has come to my attention that most here don't know my owner, the God-Emperor of Humanity, Leto II Atreides. Pictured here at approximately 3500 years old:

That's actually not your team owner. The category is fictional team owner that represents your rival team's HF owner, so unless your rival picked that out for you, or you picked it for your rival...
