RealGM Fantasy Experience (5th Year, Need 1 More Member!) 

Post#1 » by StaticRoar » Tue Oct 20, 2015 7:16 pm

For the past four seasons, I've been running a fantasy basketball league only open to affiliates of RealGM. In Year 1, we had 259 posts in our discussion thread on the RealGM forums: http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1351269 In Years 2-4, we decided to use the league messenger on Yahoo and had active discussion almost every day. Plenty of the active members came back for Year 5, but we still need some new guys to reach 16. If you want to join, I really urge that you're someone who's not only going to be active in the league, but in the chat as well. Here are the league details:

Platform: Yahoo
Number of Teams: 16
Format: Head-to-Head One Win
Categories: Standard 9 Category
Draft Type: Standard Live
Time of Draft: Sunday, October 14 5:00 PM PT

Please make sure you can attend the draft. Message me or post here if you are interested in joining the league.

I've got 2 or 3 friends who want in and will make RealGM accounts. Hopefully you don't mind, they'll be active.

They'll provide as good/better level of competition as the league last year.

Hopefully this doesn't happen to my team in the end of March again:

And CP3 didn't miss a game! That trade worked wonders for you.

Perfectly honest, I'd prefer to limit it to currently active RealGM users. Sorry man. You should create a Friends & Family league.

Good luck, hope everyone's best players stay reasonably healthy! (Fully understand, I've actually never not finished top 2 before)

Hey guys, Yahoo added one IR (injured reserve) spot as a default this year so I decided to do the same. Draft and play accordingly.

batsmasher just posted to the Suns board y'all needed another player so I thought I'd throw my name in if you're really desperate.
Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I just hope we don't have any whining ass kids in this league. To many people were complaining about Stats team last year. Not gonna lie he got lucky with Jimmy. I had no clue he would have the year he did. And then snagging Gobert at the end from me solidified his near perfect year. All in all lets have an active competitive season. Last years was fun if you played the right way.

Damn, I forgot I had Gobert. That makes 4 current first-rounders on that roster (Curry, CP3, Butler, and Gobert). Since the Kings didn't renew, I should go unbeaten now right? :nod:
