MD, if people really aren't showing any interest in this, I'm sure I can pull in some people I know.
Mad Dog - October 1, 2006 12:39 AM (GMT)
Ok, I think Scrooge will at least sign up as well. Though I hope we can get six people from here.

There's still time to get 'em, hopefully. When's the draft?
Mad Dog - October 1, 2006 12:53 AM (GMT)
I won't worry about that until we have the teams.
TheGreatWhiteChoate - October 2, 2006 08:00 PM (GMT)
Everybody join. It doesn't matter if you don't like basketball....at least you can mock them.
Princess Leena - October 3, 2006 09:49 PM (GMT)
If you're desperate for people, I'll join. I hate the NBA, however, and will quarter ass my effort.
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 10:11 PM (GMT)
I'd say join up. NBA isn't my strong point either to be honest.

Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 10:42 PM (GMT)
Cool. Halfway to my goal of having six teams. I just need to PM Scrooge and berate him for not joining.
Real F'n Show - October 3, 2006 10:43 PM (GMT)
So your the Scrooge Swatters?
Looks like you, me, and Choate so far...
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 10:46 PM (GMT)
Yep. I want 6 teams because you get those nifty little Yahoo trophies for your profile.
Real F'n Show - October 3, 2006 10:47 PM (GMT)
Cool. I pre-ranked my players cuz I probably won't be around for the draft if we end up having one...
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 10:51 PM (GMT)
I usually just do auto unless it's a keeper league.
TheGreatWhiteChoate - October 3, 2006 11:01 PM (GMT)
Leena should definitely join, even if she's going to half ass it. Half our baseball league mailed it in and it was still fun.
Real F'n Show - October 3, 2006 11:03 PM (GMT)
Oh fuck, how'd the baseball one turn out? Did I get last?
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 11:04 PM (GMT)
Yeah. Every league has those. My friends and I have been trying to eliminate that for years and decided it's impossible. We even had some guy go 0-14 in football a couple of years ago.
TheGreatWhiteChoate - October 3, 2006 11:05 PM (GMT)
You're Sultans of Swing, right, RFS? You finished 7th. I finished 2nd.
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 11:07 PM (GMT)
I lost in the title game of my league. I'm kind of annoyed about it as the douche I was playing overhauled his entire team mid-stream. So he had like double the players contribute to his stats over the 2 weeks.

Yeah, I lost in ours to some douchebag team who's players got hot at the right time. Even worse, I finished 4th in my other league, getting beat by the number 5 seed and upset. I was the #1 seed.
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 11:14 PM (GMT)
Yeah. I was the #1 and 13 games ahead of the #2 seed. This guy was the #6 and just got fucking lucky the whole way. He slid into the playoffs at the last second. Every week leading up to the title game saw him trail the entire week and then pull off some Sunday miracle. This guy made something like 80 roster moves during the season. The second most was 27.

Last time I was in a basketball league I made sure to pick the worse guys available. Somehow Ricky Davis and Vladimir Radmonovic carried the team to second-to-last place.
Mad Dog - October 3, 2006 11:25 PM (GMT)
I have a lot of trouble now with fantasy. No one trusts me for trades because I had a way of ditching big name veterans right before they stopped being useful and grabbing no namers right when they hit. I stayed on top of one league for it's entire run. During that run I got Priest Holmes, Matt Hasselbeck, Chad Johnson and I was the first to grab Anquan Boldin and Reuben Droughns when they had their big debuts.
dynamite kido - October 4, 2006 02:47 PM (GMT)
I just signed up.
Team Walking Dead is gonna KILL the competition!
TheGreatWhiteChoate - October 4, 2006 05:42 PM (GMT)
Score, 4 teams. Let's get two more....Leena and Scrooge, maybe.

If not, I may be able to pull in one or two kids I know.

Sweet!
We all love you more than Scrooge now.

Doesn't take much, really
TheGreatWhiteChoate - October 5, 2006 03:39 AM (GMT)
Pretty much living would take care of it.
Mad Dog - October 6, 2006 03:35 PM (GMT)
Ok, so one more team is what I'm looking for so get us that team. Once we have 6 I'll set the draft up. If you guys want a live draft say so here or it'll be an auto pick.

I'm all about the live draft.
Princess Leena - October 10, 2006 05:54 AM (GMT)
Mad Dog - October 10, 2006 01:19 PM (GMT)
Ok live it is then.
Would doing it during football one Sunday this month be acceptable?

Definitely.
Mad Dog - October 11, 2006 01:55 PM (GMT)
Ok folks. The live draft will be on October 22nd at 2 pm. You all watch football then so being there shouldn't be an issue hopefully. If that date doesn't work for you say so and we'll switch it to the 21st at 2 pm.
Scrooge McSuck - October 16, 2006 01:37 PM (GMT)
I'm signed up, but I don't know if I can attend the draft. (pre-ranks just incase)
Mad Dog - October 16, 2006 02:42 PM (GMT)
Don't worry. I'll probably forget about it until about 8 pm October 22nd.
