i got ya paydro. my sentence read like a 3rd grader wrote it. i mean that last year the knucklehead cat was players who had been suspended. this year the cat is for players who have been arrested. the arrested subset is smaller than the suspended subset. that's what i meant. sorry for the confusion. its a nice wrinkle you added.

Are you kidding? I have complied my list of options for the knucklehead cat and could make a full team, starters and reserves, just out of them.

for every player who has been arrested for something there has to be 2 players that have been suspended for a game.

Takuya, please make your pick at any time, but you've been up for well over 12 hours so we have to put someone else on the board. Thaliontil, the pick is yours.

Does Rajon Rondo count as a non visible tatoos player?He has one on his back but the jersey hides it.In case i can´t pick the Celtics Point Guard in that category I choose Brandon Roy in the category of Non visible tattoos.

I would say that Rondo doesn't count, but Roy does. Good pick, I thought he had a tat somewhere.

fatlevel - I just wish my name was as cool as yours. I hoarded his cards back in the day.

I think Deron Williams should have been exempt too. Oh well it's too late now. There will be gems found in all rounds.

im taking a bit of a gamble here, but i'm going with Yao Ming for the "over/under" category. All reports say that Yao's foot is fully healed and he has resumed running normally and should be good for the upcoming season.

Big Slam, your my man 50 grand and all, but I have to place a challenge on your draft pick. Lopez isn't White, he's a certified Cuban ( I think) but he's not white. His name's Lopez and his brother has a fro', he can't be white!
