Take Craig Porter JR, I said HE would be better than Scoot Henderson. I never said the others would... That is why I rank who I would take in each position etc... I often start out with players that could be drafted high (if they aren't popular yet) then as they become popular I switch players.

Example #2 - Brandon Miller. When I liked him, he was a player ranked 15-20'sh, then he moved way up which left me searching for another player. if he didn't become popular I would have stayed with that pick.

One thing I learned it life is there are people that will try to KEEP YOU IN A BOX if they develop an opinion of you. If you make a decision 20 years prior they will keep you there... I am not saying that is necisarily the case here, I am just saying that happens all too often...

Many don't understand me and I am fine with that, that is why I rarely respond to anyones post, if I do respond most of the time it is usually to someone I feel might understand me. I never go the extra mile to make friends but I do go the extra mile to make everyone feel respected and appreciated imo.

So for the ones who understand and appreciate UNCNYC I rock with ya. For the others, by the grace of God we have quite a few amazing posters who fit your style...


Keep doing you my man.

On a sidenote I miss the dude who always used emojis and stuff


Awww thanks Liver Pooty. You are the only person ever who can make dook, DUKE lol. You are a cool dude man, always have my respect.

You made me earn that early and once I got it you have always shown me respect and appreciation. I value everything about you, from your humbleness to your care free attitude, while still caring lol.

I do have a few FAVORITES on this site but I would never list them because my non favorites are awesome too... But you are truly one of the favorites...

Everybody knows I'm your favorite. It's no secret and I'm tired of pretending like we aren't a thing.


I also miss emoji guy... BobsBuddy? I think?

One thing I love about you is your REALNESS, SARCASM *you also know when to turn it off* and BLUNTNESS lol but you do it without hurting anyone... At least not me.

You are TRULY one of my favorites...

The ones who know, know, and the ones who don't know I value them as well...

Different times indeed, but I'm guessing the typical poster on this board isn't much different than before.

NBA had the hottest cheerleader tournament. Jordan and her sister were smoke. Been too long and forgot her name.

Steve Czaban had the Tournament of Babes. 64 women bracket from different fields in media. I was an intern there and it was my job to find out if Star Trek fans were hacking the polls cause Seven of Nine should not be a cinderella story lol.

The Cathouse drafts were definitely nice. :D

Yah know we also had the drafts with NBA players and from select categories. Edit: Scavenger Hunt Drafts! Those could always come back in the offseason.

I don't remember cathouse drafts, but I feel like I was around for at least a couple of them.

The Spelling Bee's where fun though.

Also scavenger hunts.

the cathouse drafts are in the index but im sure most picture links are dead now

great example of it being a different time:

Traded Brian Burns for a 2nd and 5th round pick.

We're good at trading good players for not much value.

We could've traded him for 2 1st's in 2022.
