Ok....so.....
If any of you are currently watching the NASL tonight you probably seen the match between TLO and Rainbow. What a joke of professionalism that was from incontrol and gretorp.
Let me paint the picture.....
During the previous games, all of them had been 2-0 in favor of the winners. So, jokingly, the commentators (obviously geoff and gretorp) say that they will root for whoever loses game one just so they can see a game three. Originally, you just think they are making this comment to be taken with a grain of salt, but that was not the case. You see, they continually made sarcastic remarks both towards TLO and Rainbow about their play and how it was "cheesy" or how "classic" or "creative" it was during game 2.
Now, if I was a professional player in a "professional" league being casted by "professional" casters, and I watched as the casters, plain and simply, made fun of me playing and laughing while I got 0-2'ed, I would be absolutely furious. The amount of professionalism displayed to me so far from that league has been absolutely mediocre. How do you expect people who don't take professional gaming seriously, when the cast looks like two friends laughing at some computer game where one guy gets stomped.
Absolutely unreal. Where is the "trying to improve" and "learning as we go" mentality that we've heard from people surrounding the NASL?
Again. Unreal.

I assume that the reason you aren't posting about this in the LR thread is that everyone else found it hilarious and you would just look like someone who takes things too seriously.
But the joke is on you! Even though you made a new thread, you still look like someone who takes things way too seriously.

Hmmm maybe he is being sarcastic with post!

Not to incite any flaming, but I'm going to agree with motbob here. This does seem to be the situation.

Tens of thousands of people disagree, get over yourself.

How dare they be entertaining.
Do you think them talking about how 1-sided it was would have been interesting in the least?
I'll take fun or interesting 10000x over professionalism if those are the only 2 choices.

So far the community's response to NASL has been WAH WAH WAH. This just adds to that.
So welcome to the bandwagon.

It means your post makes you come off as tightly wound. He thinks you only made your own private thread because nobody in the pre-existing thread where this could be discussed agrees with you.
If they're going to be casting random games for hours every single day they damn well better throw a pie from time to time.

Well, the community response has recently become more like "this is freakin amazing". So he's really in the minority now

how dare they be humorous. Seriously calm down....

What if they threw the pie at you?
And I didn't see the other thread that covers this topic.

Keep fighting, man. I'm sure you'll eventually convince someone that what they thought was funny wasn't actually funny.

I'm struggling to understand what this really is supposed to mean, and how it could possibly be relevant. 
The other thread that motbob is referring to is the LR thread for today:

precisely, because the overwhelming majority of posts in the NASL thread thoroughly enjoyed the humor provided by the cast.

lol it was funny. get it FUNNY! have you no soul?
|
or perhaps the North American Comedy League
That's be pretty sweet... errr
|
I guess he's just worried that the players will have their feelings hurt because of the jokes made during the casts? 
I dunno how you didn't see the other thread which covers this... Motbob mentioned it originally. The live report thread. The thread discussing the NASL for today with dozens of pages.

OP please take your head out of your ass. It was honestly very funny and added a new dimension to their casting.
