About Kobe Jordan, I don't mind making an exception for the Faker fan and letting him play this year if he wants in, given that he got lucky and won last year.
Obviously not gonna take on other board's posters left and right, but I def wouldn't mind handing his ass to him this year like I woulda done last year if Al Jeff didn't go down...
Plus having a Kobe nuthugger around makes the smack talk funner :lol:

I could care less for the number of relegations, make it 10 if u want, yall know I'm not going down anyways...

Would we be doing Yahoo Sports? If so, I know I don't post on here all that often but I would be up for it.

That being said, I worked my arse off last year and lost to people that didn't change their rosters ALL YEAR... it was actually quite a feat. I would have done better had I not done anything...

I guess what I am saying is that 4th from last took a lot of work and I just would have barely made the cut... yikes...

yeah don't you hate that. In my fantasy baseball league this year the guy in first place hasn't checked his team since he created it.
Oh and I'm in again for this season.

Cold, are you a Suns fan? If so, you should think about changing your sig :wink:

Nah, I just ask because it sounds like we are gonna have a different procedure this year where we give Suns board members a window to fill the first spots and have a waitlist with others...so I just wanna know where to put ya.

I like the two league idea. either 14 or 16 teams would be good. Imo

Post #28 » by **TASTIC** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 11:10 pm

Yeah definitely a Suns league with the exception of last year's champ KobeJordanGod

There are plenty of other leagues to join on the RealGM Fantasy League board....

I think cold is a Suns fan anyway...and he's a Cubbies fan too. So he (and I) knows suffering...

Yeah, I'm feelin that. I think 14-16 will be good especially since I could see us getting interest from that many people.

Right now, we have 19 on board and that doesn't include some more folks who played last year and haven't posted here yet. Just to give an updated count.

Thanks for getting all of this rolling Miklo.

BDR, looking forward to it.

Yup I know some people hate me for both hating the whole hometown rule (It's these towns that waste my tax dollars on stadiums and other sports teams related stuff, I have a right to like whatever the hell team I want) and some hate me for being fan of two NBA teams, C's and Suns. But no one gets upset about player fans who jump from team to team whenever their player does. But really I don't care. As long as you don't like two of the three: Spurs, Mavs, Lakers, Cavs, Cardinals (STL), and White Sox.

Naw just joking. People have a right to like whatever teams they want.

Count me in again.

I like the idea of the 2 leagues but i dont care either way really.

nevetsov · Post #33 » by **nevetsov** » Thu Sep 17, 2009 12:55 pm

Yeah i'm easy with either. Ran into Dave Ang tonight as well, he's keen if there's a spot.

Man I can't believe I had Amare (injured/ underperformed for most of the season) Carmelo (suspended for a bit) Kaman (out all season) and Dalembert (sucked all season) as my TOP 4 PICKS and there were still people who finished under me. You guys deserve to be relegated

Post #34 » by **lilfishi22** » Thu Sep 17, 2009 1:11 pm

Sounds complicated. Never done any of these fantasy league things and never totally understood it either.

I'll probably sit out of this one

nevetsov · Post #35 » by **nevetsov** » Thu Sep 17, 2009 1:14 pm

Nah fish it's simple once you get into it. Heaps of fun as well, i'm sure you can pick it up along the way. Either way we'll all be able to give you pointers.

I put Dave Ang on the list (don't know his username).
People who played last year who we haven't heard from are in red.

BDR, how should we determine who plays in each league? Obviously people from last year who opt in go in the "A" league, but to fill the remaining A league spots do we pick randomly from the new players list I've been making? I can keep updating the players list as people post to this thread to make it easy for you to feed that into your master plan.

Haha, ya I traded for Boozer right before he went down the entire season...

My team was a mess after that...

rsavaj I put you on the list because you had asked about rules of fantasy; are you in or out?

BringinDaRuckus · Post #40 » by **BringinDaRuckus** » Sat Sep 19, 2009 2:18 am

I will be probably be starting the official thread by tomorrow nit (Phx time). Let's keep this thread open if we can tho, because this is a good one to do a head count and find out who is in and who is out.

And I agree, we need to probably keep team names the same as user names on realgm. Just hard to juggle so many accounts in a league and who to contact.
