Matchup 13: RexTookMyStash vs ryanfea  >>NEWS<<

Rtmsvrf_medium

Star-divide

The Bracket:

Addedto1_medium

AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF fielding emails to the tune of "BRO WTF, LOLBAH" (The acronym for LOL Boners are Hilarious!) due to obvious ridiculousness with the voting system in this whole thing I believe we have solved this issue. The artillery has been called in. Enough is enough. You shall not pass. I got an email from Rev two nights ago saying a simple phrase that changed everything, making all matchups from here on out (sorry to those who got hosed already) legitimate. The email basically said this:

i am breaking out the heavy artillery - i just asked scottnak if he could get involved

And then everything was more beautiful. The sky was more blue, I lost 10 pounds, my protein shake tasted like liquid muffins, my 15 year old Golden Retriever turned back into a week old puppy, Boston fell into the ocean, I won the lottery, and most importantly.....Votebot's mighty reign finally came to an end.

Now we will go by the format we use for the pregame picks, Ill post the voting spreadsheet, you click who you want then confirm in the thread. If you do not post a comment confirming your pick, your vote does not count. The end. Ill make sure to remind you of this about 27 more times since its important and at least one of you (Rex) will forget to do so. You can just vote, its cool.


I had somewhat of a busy weekend, however, I want to call to attention this particular thing from the last matchup, in case someone missed it:

Darvish_medium

Now, I do not know what the actual realistic, feasible chance there is to make this happen but I think its worth a look. If somehow, someway we could get THIS PICTURE onto a billboard somewhere near Arlington Stadium in Texas with our blog name inserted, even if its for a week around opening day, then we win forever. Think about it. This could spawn an entire new offseason discussion on what should be on the billboard and where it should be located. Im waiting for some more info and Ill keep you posted. I honestly cannot think of a better way to start the season.

I would be willing to road trip it out to the arm pit that is Arlington to take picture next to a billboard featuring a naked asian man. Hrmm, I just realized I may never type that last phrase ever again without as much meaning. These truly are the times of our lives. Its like the movie Cowboys vs Aliens except the Aliens are feminine guys and they are not fighting but making out and Olivia Wilde does not (spoiler alert) die at the end. Harrison Ford as a bad guy totally does not work for me, by the way. The Actor Formerly Known as Han Solo is so acutely ingrained in my mind as the "Badass With a Heart of Gold Protagonist/Supplemental Protagonist" that any other role feels as wrong as using your left hand for some alone-at-night-cardio. If you know what I mean. *wink*. (Im talking about masturbation) (LOLBAH)


I wanted to wait on the spreadsheets from the might scottnak before posting this, so, the schedule has changed yet again. Ill just keep pushing this up until the winner is crowned during the Home Run Derby. If you want to have a specific image posted that is going to represent you before the jump on the front page of this illustrious website then email me at MrGuyofStuff2@gmail.com. Also, feel free to send whatever else you want to add to your matchup thread, or just say hi, or recklessly flirt with me (2pints). Also, after you vote, you better comment to confirm, or I pity you fool. Just voting is fine.

Also, whoever sent me a request for making salads and cake for their Dad's birthday party I must confess that I have limited cooking abilities. I tend to destroy the kitchen when making something as trivial as waffles, so cakes are completely out of the question.

SCHEDULE FOR THE REMAINDER OF ROUND 1:

Jan 31st
Casey'sKissofDeath (11) VS ladybug (22)

Feb 2nd:
RallyMonkey5 (6) VS TBD (27)

(We need to decide like now who we are putting in against RallyMonkey5. Ill put something below to get it decided.)

Votebot made things exciting.

BRING BACK VOTEBOT!!!!!!!!!

I thought ryanfea was banned.
The User Mentioned In The Most Replies To This Comment Will Replace BT In The Final Round 1 Matchup.
I vote eyespy, all day
Greyson Peltier
You had to go there.
Let's ALL go there.

He’s seriously the final piece of the puzzle to make this tournament crazier than a soup sandwich.

He could someday be

the political YetiJuice. If we’re lucky.

Wha?

Why Greyson?

Then again he IS the johnsamo of our generation….

wow I just looked at his SBNation profile

sounds toolish… to the max

you should have heard

him call in to Halotalk

i'll look forward to seeing his contributions

in the upcoming season

No. Yu don't.

He mysteriously dropped off the face of the Earth though.
He must have followed Mathis, Lyle, or T.R.

Detritus package deal...

…buy one, get three free

My money is on

him already in a cushy lobbying gig somewhere in D.C.

he could be helping satan (NEwt)

get elected

Maybe he is gunning for a position

Ambassador of Moonlandia….

As the future Premier of Moonlandia

I would veto this appointment.

I wish I had awsome tech skills

insert GIF of Newt shooting lasers out of his eyeballs

Close (Courtesy of FP Magazine)

word

now we just need some lasers

Fear the Quad-laser:

He calls in to the Sports Lodge frequently.

Last time, he explained to the listeners that the Iowa primary is rarely, if ever, a good indicator of the final outcome in a presidential election.

So yeah, huge tool.

Unfortunate for Roger

but better him than us!

He's only 15

Most of us were tools at 15.

Yes, but his is a special brand of tool.

Sorry, he puts himself out there nonstop, so hiding behind age doesn’t really apply here.

And now, once seen

it cannot be unseen.

44Fan or Eyespy
Just noticed this

5thStarter

Let the rookie have his cup of coffee in the main event.

Thanks, Dave!

But no way, it has to go to eyespy. That guy slays me.

There's also Halowitz and ItCouldHappen.

Call ’em up to the Show!

On second thought

We’ll hold all of you back so that HH gains an extra year of arbitration.

ItCouldHappen is too emotionally fragile

going down in this comp could cripple my ego….

There's also my battery mate NathanielS

But we’re going to duke it out in an epic battle of avatars in next year’s contest.

NathanielS wasn't in these matchups?!

That’s insane.

Lyle Spencer

…… make it happen

Dear lord that is genius

just go through his archives

Find all the gems (4000 games, 27 outs etc) for his case. For the picture put the Thelma and Louise comic that WiHaloFan did a while back for Lyle and Jeffy and pick the best one… I mean in all honesty, outside of boners and pent up sexual aggression (redundant much?) has anything that has never donned a Halo uniform contributed as much to this blog as Lyle Spencer?

Couldn't someone just post multiple replies with their own name to rig this?

Obviously it isn’t as shady as VoteBot, but it would work.

RYANFEA could not do this

since he has been banned

*************44FAN***********
BIG THANKS to scottnak for putting htis together

ALSO:
You can vote and then NOT mention who you voted for in the comments. It works that way if you want to be all hushy hushy.

Oh, damnit

That changes everything.

Editing it away now.

Apparently

VoteBot is an Angels fan going by the homepage?

What page?
That message right at the top of HH.
Ah, I missed that.
Kinda screwed it up though...

ToT I’ll get it right next time. Shakes fist

Votebot!

You cannot hope to contain the Votebot

So basically

it’s like pregame picks warmup style

sounds aboot right!
I have to wait for the battle here

Rex is tight; Ryanfea has his own meme and is also one of the people who carries the HH banner among the hordes of unwashed heathens at MLBTradeRumors.

The replies at that site are cringe worthy most of the time
It's like intellectual whack-a-mole over there.

Good times.

It's almost as bad as the four-letter network website comments.
ZOMG!!!! YankSux!!!! TEBOW!!!!!!!

LOL BONERS ARE HILARIOUS!!!!

Ryanfea gets my vote for his MLBTradeRumors efforts
Ryanfea

I wouldn’t want him to get banned.

You do realize

the prize for winning this tourney is a ban from all of us.

hunger games....

halos heaven style

Thank you!

Finally somebody that DOESN"T want me to be banned!

I've got your back, man.
I'll take your side
Thanks for doing this Scottnak

Could we get a link on the form to send us back here or will clicking the back button to return here still count our vote?

Back button should be fine
Once you see the confirmation message, you're good
Oh and

LOL BONERS ARE HILARIOUS

Was the cheating confirmed? Or are we still just going off of our gut feelings and/or implausibility that (insert HH member) won their matchup?
Second one
Let's counter potential election rigging by rigging the election ourselves!

Who’s down?

I can so see that

as an episode of Sunny

I am so intrigued.
I think it was the last matchup that broke the Votebot denier's back.
As for the TBD

I’ll vote for a rookie who has racked up over 1000 comments in about two months.

5thStarter for TBD.

Greyson Peltier.

GREYYYYYYYYYYSONNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!

This is the new cause I’m championing.

As the best of the litter

from DOV’s loins, he has a shot indeed.

Is Greyson really one of DOV's kids?

Please say no, I really want to continue liking DOV.

hell no

my kids would kick his ass and they would be doing it with there milk in one hand and bats in the opther

Oh, thank God.

I had a feeling Finn would whoop his ass.

Who's collecting the money for the billboard?

Where do I sign?

Pretty sure I have some Euros kicking about
Adding the BILLBOARD UPDATE now.
Wait!

Do we really want to make it “front page” public? Don’t you think the LSB douchebags would try to stop it?

Fuck 'em
Knew there was a reason I like you.
Like Nelson Cruz tried to stop that Freese liner?
Got them

Mega Ice Burn Express, pilot: CommNate

GULF
Its not like they can stop us.
This was tough. I dig ryanfea so much.

Gotta go with Rex, though.

Votebot has an accomplice...

…looks like you can vote as many times as you like

Good good

Everything is going according to plan.

Are you allowed to use other people's photos for a billboard?
They did in "I Love You Man"

so obviously all legal hurdles are free and clear.

Hell no.

Even if you took the photo yourself and owned the copyright.

Unless they won a prize and you got them to sign away all their rights. Hmnnnn …

Quick, someone have Yu sign an “autograph” on a contract written in Acme disappearing reappearing ink! And track down the photo’s copyright holder too!

ryanfea

$2000 for a billboard is not that much
the best trolling ever and if i did not have kids i would go into my savings and give you all that monies

I'd absolutely put some money down for a billboard.

And by “some” I mean probably $5. Should we have a poll as to who’d legitimately donate?

Thats a good idea.

Phi you want to do it? Or should we have a thread devoted to it?

Kickstarter.

Collect real pledges and ifandonlyif we raise enough, we all get charged what we pledged.

Doesn't Kickstarter have to approve the project?

There could be some hurdles there…

ryanfea

For having to ignore the “banned” jokes on a near-constant basis

Cholula and Tecate...the makings of an interesting meal
You got that right.
Billboard!!!!

Let’s do this thing!

it would take 200 people donating 5 dollars to reach 1000 dollars.....

and I dunno how close that billboard is to TBIA/ if it is on a route that is traveled commonly by individuals attending games at said park

I don't know if Vox Media would like our site url up there

but it’s still an epic plan.
We need a royalty free pic, and some clever caption using some derivative of “Yu”.

As in

Yu know Yu want this

Have it yur way?

might have a copyright infringement

Awwwwwww Yeaaaaaaa!

Brilliant
Here's another image

(warning: it can’t be unseen)
It’s in the same vein as the one you linked to above – It shows all without showing anything…
http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT2KUapXF1PUCIk0TfPGIhOVEBYkJq503asTqqIOmieunsYC2t0

Oh.... my ..... God
Dude. W. T. F.

Is he the Japanese-Iranian Burt Reynolds?

uhhh, yea… he’s – well, he’s hard to classify.
or it’s just best left unsaid.

I don't know what to think about that pic.

Am I reviled..or slightly turned on?

Can't it be both?
Not sure yet.

I’ll have a better answer after i’m drunk.

Do yu got what i need? (Wink) (Wink)
Oh baby Yu

Yu got what I need
But Yu say hes from Japan
But Yu says hes from Japan

Love Yu like a love song baby
Yu has an ace in the hole
ItCouldHappen!
reply fail
it abso-muther-friggen-lutely could happen....

and I appreciate Phi for investigating this…. this could be the first political campaign I donate to

Count me in on the fundraiser

However, when I sign the check I like to sign it in the car with the engine running. Seriously though, I’m in.

We have to figure out the most appropriate medium for this

Somehow I doubt people will be on board with: “HEY EVERYONE SEND ME MONEY AND ILL TAKE CARE OF IT”

I honestly dont want to deal with monetary side of it, but I will organize such tomfoolery.

Boom

Perfect
This might work.

LINK

This one I like

PayPal is secure way to get funds to where they’re needed, and with Phi Slamma in charge of the tomfoolery, what could go wrong?!

Right?

This can’t fail!

"hey guys

I had a kickass night on friday and the price of the billboards suddenly doubled"

-Phi

Totally unrelated

I swear guys

Cancel billboard,

and we’ll just all go to vegas to play craps at the Bellagio.

Win.

and when we win big, we will buy the whole damn state of texas!

and rename all the sports teams:
Los Angeles Angels of Texas
Los Angeles Angels of Dallas of the NFL
Los Angeles Angels of Houston
Los Angeles Angels of Houston of the NFL
….

Take winnings

get multiple billboards.

Hell if we win enough lets buy the naming rites to Rangers Stadium and rename it “Queer Palace”

we are on the same thought train
Ryanfea
And here I thought you were going to get dirty with me on this one

Please get dirty with me

Ryanfea plays ball like a girl.
Rex is voting for Newt Gingrich
I'm not a front runner,

my vote still belongs to Herman Cain.

It was his smile, wasn't it?

please, I just ate lunch
He's about to eat a lot more than your lunch, judging by his face
Womanizing is a lore more palatable to democratic voters if you're Bill Clinton.
He plays the sax

Just give him the sex, already.

lol

I AM AMERICA!

Usually, you pay for renting the billboard and then you pay another company to make the vinyl/whatever that goes over the billboard.

Probably want to look into that, as well.

Yea, that would be my guess too.

Worst of all

Would we need to the approval of MLB/PA to Yuse his image?
We would likely have to forget about using his image all together.

I'm down to donate, but yeah...if we're using a picture of Yu, just as long as i'm not the one getting sued, I'm cool.
Has to be naked Yu

or its just not worth it

Form a Super PAC or something
are there any HH'ers out there

with effeminite faces who would be willing to load up on spray tan and sacrifie thier dignity for the most glorious troll of all time?

did someone say my name?
I'm in.

Would have to dye my blonde locks, though. It’d be for a good cause.

My pledge just went to $100
i know people

that can make it cheaper

Close call.

RexTookMyStash gets the nod.

Senor Stash

who’da thunk it

I've never been banned at Halos Heaven

True story. I’ll let you digest that for a moment before I really state my case tomorrow morning

I'm going to hold off voting until you and Rex post your arguments.

Until then, it’s Miller time. Or Jack Daniels time. Whatever.

Famous last words
Why you should vote for me:

cause if not, I must break you.

—Fin

Yeah, I'm high, too.
word

mozzarella sticks are delicious

My name is RexTookMyStash. I am poster for Halos Heaven. I must break you!
Ryanfea for best contributor while banned
Gotta go with ryanfea
Phi

if you want me to flirt with you all you had to do was say so. I’ve just been waiting for a sign from you. any sign. and now I have it. I am pleased
funny gifs

I thought my body language did all the talking

its ruins it if I have to TELL you to do it.

body language doesn't work too well through the internet

but we’re past that now, aren’t we?

As long as you agree to name the puppy we bought together

Commander Fluff’n’Tuff

I can't find the goldfish we bought together,

I’m pretty sure I haven’t fed it in two months.

Stay strong Mr. Happy Fins. Stay strong.

It was DOCTOR Happy Fins

This is why we cant have nice things Rex

I forget to tell you,

he got his license revoked. Got caught doing back-room fishderectomies in Tijuana.

I knew we should have not home schooled him.
He learned everything he needed to know growing up at that shitty fish store in Stanton.
And this is why I can't read HH at work.

I’m getting looks.

listen, if we're going to make a go of this

you really need to stop bringing up CommanderNate all the time. we can’t name every pet commandersoandso. if you can’t get Nate out of your head than this just isn’t going to work for me.

p.s. I hate you CommNate

When you are emotionally and physically linked with something so perfect

its hard not to compare that to everything else.

Its not my fault he cheated on me with Halowood. That scar may never heal.

You guys are kidnapping animals from the shelter and naming them after me?

Christ, Spring Training needs to start before this turns into a serious problem.

And you better name them something subordinate to Commander…like Private or Yeoman.

Yeoman Meow Meow McKittenface?
How about, Chairman Meow?

did you see the Ferris Bueller commercial that is airing during the super bowl?

Lazer makes an appearance

Wahhhh?
Now I need to find this

here

So thats where he went for a few days

That panda is such a whore

he must've made a little $$ on that

make sure he buys next time you’re out drinking

Laser?

I barely know her!

I'm too lazy to post and confirm my vote

oops.

my vote to rex..

Glad to see Ryanfea still posting

Vote

Also vote eyespy for late addition to contest. Also I am in for donating money for a billboard, especially if said billboard also takes a dig at LSB.

Tryed to vote Ryanfea yesterday, but the power went out at work.

I’m ignoring what is clearly the will of God and voting Ryanfea anyway.

What is the vote count? It seems to be stuck on 14 to 19.
That is the seeding number

not the vote count.

You're not that logical!
Oedipus Rex Vote Comment

I miss Votebot.

How do I know if I did this right?
Your vote still does not count.

We were letting votebot decide who won and lost. Now we let phi decide who won and lost.

I'm happy as long as my vote is not being counted.
I voted for RexTookMyStash

in hopes of seeing less “Aren’t you banned?” comments.

I'll take that as a compliment.
I know who to nominate for the 2012 ban
Those will likely persist regardless of my win or loss.
I like tacos and Cholula

Tecate, not so much

There's tequila there too. :D
That's the kind of HHer I can support
Apologies

I meant to go on a long diatribe about why I deserve to win this thing (mostly so I technically have a chance to face DOV in the finals) but I got really busy today. So in short ryanfea rules and rextookmystash drools. Vote ryanfea!

Re: the billboard

I’m down for 20 bucks.

Rextookmystash gets my vote.
