Great Lakes State Fantasy Tournament (Vote for up to three start dates) 

Post#1 » by Laimbeer » Sat Aug 27, 2016 2:59 pm

Just want to gage interest on a tournament similar to our Piston Fantasy tournament we played recently.

The twist here is we will include players who played their college basketball in the state of Michigan, along with Piston players. It should make for a deeper and hopefully more interesting pool. Magic, prime Webber, Draymond, Jalen, Smitty, Rice...along with others.

If you would be interested, please indicate which time frames you would be able to participate. You can vote for two or three, if you're available for more than one.

I'd prefer eight players but I think we could make a go with as few as four.

1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

By the way, zero problem if someone else wants to run it or create one of their own design.

I'm game, had a ball last time through.

I don't really have a preference as to when we draft, but the boards have been blocked at my work (bummer), so I might be a bit slower to make my picks. I apologize in advance.
