Point-Counterpoint Dead?

It seems that way seeing as how nothing has been done about this since July. This was starting to build some interest after just one contest. You really shouldn't have let the fire go out on this one Mike.

I would even say I wanted to compete, if my every waking hour weren't consumed by school and work right now. Maybe in December. Assuming Mike doesn't let PCP completely die, that is.

Mmm, PCP...

Being consumed by school and work are no excuse b/c so was I and I won the damned thing.... of course now I am living in a van down by the river....

Oh, well at least I still have my title. (cocks gun, drinks more Boone's Farm).

It's an excuse if you're supposedly going to be graduating in approximately six and a half months. Also, I have no desire to live in a van down by the river, so I'll pass until the fall semester is over.

See that's the problem with you Gen Y'ers (or whatever). There's no drive to better yourselves. When we were your age, we'd have given our right hand to live in a van down by the river. But then, we set goals for ourselves... like finishing college in just under 15yrs, achieving middle management by 35(fingers crossed), and winning P/CP on SportsRant.
But hey, you "go to school" and "get good grades" and yeah, maybe someday I'll have to call you "Boss", but you'll never be able to take away my title. So I ask you, who's the REAL winner here? hmm?

I say we all move to Colorodo down by the river when Jtg graduates ,collect Colorodo state welfare which will incease state taxes which will come out of Jtg's paycheck.
So,essentially we will all be living off of Jtg.
We will really be winners then.

I would be game for a shot at it, course I'll be crap at it, but that is to be expected.

Yep, open to anyone. I thought I would be crap too, but I managed to win one round and then lose in a tie breaker to the eventual champ. I was quite pleased with myself.

I've already got the first topic in mind....I just need to get a written, stamped, checked, double-checked, signed, initial, express written consent from the Rant Daddy himself.

Once the Rant Daddy speaks, I will listen!
