Official Match Thread S33 Round 3 - Gumbies FFC vs Las Vegas Bears at The House of Gumby

I think the Chinese Communist Party persona has rotted your brain. Although I'm not quite sure if you had one to begin with...

2/10. Try again next time.

try again just so i can get a 1/10? I don't think so. I'll just bank the 2/10 and call it a day.

It isn't a persona.

Suns Supreme is an extremely attractive Chinese Agent and was really interested in my Transformers Collection when we met

Please don't ask how I got probed.

I'm assuming it went something like this:

Optimus Prime: Autobots, roll into his ass

Your G1 Megatron really sold me.

One shall stand, one shall be probed
Why through away your will so recklessly?
That's a question you should ask yourself, Millkytron
No! I'll probe you with my bare hands!

Just remember to wash them beforehand.

Calm down edge-lord. Spamming gifs and general chit-chat is more your style. You don't send your best hairdresser into war.

Where is that shit campaigner Riviat

I want to piss on him

How did you get probed?

How did you get probed?

It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning and a fog crawling over the sand

Gumbies are just on life support. OOB will replace them

Don’t think so

given he cant tell the difference between the guo min dang and the zhongguo gongchan dang, i dont think his brain was that useful to begin with

Taking off my Bears and banter hat for a second here:

It isn't expansion if that happens, you are correct but what it still is, however is growth. Teams rising and falling should be a natural part of the SFA in my opinion and simple name changes don't really cut the mustard unless the entire side has a culture change with it. When the Bandits changed back to the Bombers, it brought in a new antagonism and ego to the club. When the Swamprats moved from Alberton to Sin City the entire list basically got an overhaul in 2 seasons to become the SpamRats of S20-22. These are examples of culture change which helped stale clubs become fresh. The change from Wolves to Gumbies and Hawks to Phoenix is wallpapering over the cracks side of things.

The Gumbies have been on life support in many different ways for about 10-12 seasons now. The league for some reason doesn't want them to die and be replaced by a new side (whichever that might be). The longevity of a side should be judged on their ability to maintain activity and a culture that grows and adapts as opposed to be an inability to let go.

The Swamprats in S18 should have died. The Hawks in S22 should have died. Kill off the dying and replace them with a new club with new rookies would have been better for the league's overall health and growth.

In my opinion anyway.

this is straight out of S25

if you cannot see the improvement in the Gumbies, you have obviously been playing too much April Sun in Cuba on the ukulele

I haven't weighed them but with this handy chart we can figure it out.

View attachment 1328017

There's 8 of them and they're all male aged between 9 and 13. That's a rough estimate of 284kgs. If we say the average weight of a male skeleton is about 14% of his total weight then that's about 244kgs of useable meat. (I'm not not going to use the organs)

Cost and labour can be reduced if we just handle it ourselves, I'd say we'd have the skills to get it done.

As the registered Michelin Star chef I'll leave the proportion of meat to each sausageroll to you, as well as the cost of sale but I'm predicting a pretty penny coming out way.

this has taken a dark turn

since s29 the Gumbies have been fine.

The feeback in all the midseason reviews and match threads has always been positive.

The myth that the Gumbies are on life support is at least 4 seasons out of date.

I have to agree here, Baz has done a wonderful job with the Gumbies over the last few seasons.
