I guess so... since I probably won't be playing the daily Fast Break game on ESPN. :p I notice last year I did some pretty good whining before I joined! 2005-2006 Final Standings
PL 21634 Gold Weiner
SP 18680 Silver Winner
JG 18143 Held on for Bronze!
DB 18052 3rd Runner-Up played hard
BB 17963 Bro put pressure on
DM 17873 Valiant catch-up effort!
Hmm, I thought DM was good at basketball. Ahh well - I guess that makes no sport he's good at! :p Will "Big Bro" be back so I can kick BOTH Douche brothers' asses again? :p
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

I don't know if I'm gonna have time this season, that's the only thing holding me back. Ah, what the hell... I missed last year's draft and regretted it all season. I'm in. It sure is gonna be different without Plaw though, isn't it?

Thanks, DB! And yeah, I can imagine it was hard getting around to it, I was wondering if I/we would play at all this year. But I think Plaw would be pissed if we didn't. Last year, everytime we'd chat about his Yahoo team, he'd say, "You should have joined, Zia. Next year don't miss the draft. No excuses!" Oh, and I thought that might have been BB but I wasn't sure. I see DM's in now, too.

NOTE: There's a bug in the importer to the new BB that stickied topics aren't transferred properly, so I need to unsticky this thread.

You can always let the autodraft thing pick for you, and then move things around later when you have a chance. I think you can even set preferences ahead of time. I know it's not the same, but at least you get to play. I actually got some decent people on my baseball team that way, and we all know I suck at baseball picks... so for someone who's a little more savvy about a particular sport, it could work out better than it had for me. Like for basketball, I wouldn't mind-- I could probably still work it to my advantage, as could you guys, I bet. Give it a shot, at least. You can always quit later if you decide to be a bad sport about it.

That's the spirit! I was gonna suggest that, but I wasn't sure if you were that type. Evidently, you are. THAT type? I show up to the classes that take attendance at least haha. I actually showed up to that class, sat down, about 2 minutes in got a call that my friends were going out, packed my things up and left haha. I'm not sure if I'll skip it though, I don't like to skip that class too much, I usually skip 1 out of every 4 classes lol, and I have a football game to go to on November 9th hmmmmm If not I'll let it autodraft, then pick up 4 scrubs off waivers and trade them all to JG for Lebron.....

That's just wrong... what the hell is that? I've never understood why some college classes monitor attendance so strictly anyway. Like the ones who say 3 absences will lower your grade. It's so stupid. Like if showing up to class is helpful and important enough, then not showing up will affect your grade anyway, because you'll do poorly in it. Other classes, all the info is in the book, and missing a few meetings isn't going to hurt anyone. They should just leave it alone, the stupid people will fail whether they show up or not... the smart ones will know which classes they need to show up for and which they don't, and they will learn the information and get good grades either way. There's no need to make attendace count for like 10% of one's grade. So lame. Luckily, only a few of my classes do that. And go figure, they're the ones with the stupid profs who just paraphrase the book... they make attendance count because they're insecure about their teaching, I bet. Good professors know you're going to show up; no one ditches a good class.
