I think the Raptors forum is half of RealGM. :lol:

Yup.

I'm glad to see Keira is back.

fwiw, the HBO package through TWC is $7/month (reg $13/month) for 24 months if you combine it with Showtime and/or Cinemax and/or TMC.

So then you're looking at $20/month for HBO and Showtime? I assume you don't get the $5 Showtime/TMC deal if you're getting the HBO deal. I asked the rep if there was an HBO deal and she said not at this time. Did they just start this deal?

Showtime and TMC really are crap. I'm already thinking about canceling. :lol:

HBO seems like they've got much better original shows and movies. I also miss Curb Your Enthusiasm!

Keira Knightley is overrated. Bar Rafaeli all the way.

Hot chick draft?

KK is not overrated!

Walt, I'm all for a hot chick draft!!!

Post #630 » by **Walt Cronkite** » Tue Aug 25, 2009 4:29 pm

What are worthy categories?

Blondes
Brunettes
Redheads
Newscaster/reporter?
Over 35 or 40??
Cartoon babes?
Adult Film Star?
Actor?
Model?

I'll keep thinking.

Hot chick with glasses

I say you either go with categories based on how you know them (i.e., all of yours except the hair color) or for a particular type of hot (skinny, nerdy/intellectual, athletic, "curvy").

I vote for the former:
TV News/Sportscaster
Cartoon
Model
TV Actress (predominantly known for TV roles)
Film Actress
Athlete
Politics/Business
Musician
Reality TV (this includes things like celebrity chefs as well as Real World or whatever)

Just realized it's only 9 categories, meaning you either cut one or you add one to have a fair snake order.

I'm pretty sure I know where everyone will go for hottest sportscaster.

One of me and Paydro's friends that doesn't really post on realgm is figuring out his login to be a part of this, so we've got 4!

I'm thinking we go with hottietypes to start things off... no reason not to save the more specific categories for a later draft. This should be way different from the Summer fun draft... no post draft voting, no losers. Everyone that participates is a winner!

Blonde
Red
Brunette
Skinny
Curvy
Nerdy
Athletic

gives us 7.

I am aforementioned friend.

I am a White Slaver and also a Bobcats fan so I am a great addition! Looking forward to winning this draft and posting throughout the season.

Are we doing this the same way as the fantasy league, or can we pick the same hotties?
