It would be fun to do some kind of draft where we do each category all at the same time. Like for example we take the closer category then we all submit our picks at the same time to some neutral arbitrator without knowing who anyone else picked. If two of you pick the same guy, too damn bad for you now you both get a pre-designated turd burger from the category. That would be fun

Or maybe the rest of the league gets to vote on which turd player you get. You want to talk about some epic snipes. That's the double snipe mutual destruction

Or maybe there's something where if you can guess what who the guy in front of you ultimately picks you get to screw them out of that player. Just spitballing future ideas here.

Ginobili also on my radar, but i never thought this m*****f*cker qualified for that category. Great pick and hope your daughter is well.

As much fun as I am having doing the research and drafting part. I would volunteer so hard to be that arbitrator.

Oh you both picked Manu Ginobili??? Well sucks for y'all you now get Richard Petruska and Carl Herrera from the 04-05 Rockets.

i hate when I decide my next pick so early, have to sit around waiting and hoping no bastard takes him.

so with that in mind, if anyone happens to pick who I have decided upon before I do will receive an automatic 24 hour ban.

I never promised not to cheat :D

Thanks man. She is only 6 months so it is just her typical vaccines. But they make her a little fussy for the rest of the day.

its alright I've already moved on, of course I now realise that Rodman was a seriously overrated defender and a huge distraction to whatever teams he's on.

man, what an awful choice :wink:

that would be fun as most people would try to find someone obscure, but then do you take the favourite hoping everyone else would be too scared too?

Me either. I have 2 daughters.

Btw, where's Gatz? I think I should stay here for a while, I don't want to make you guys have to wait for my next pick, again.

Ahhhh what a wonderful place. A place so glorious you can dine in a fancy restaurant high above the streets and order a side salad for $20 and afterwards head down to the strip and kick a guy in the balls for the same price. Absolutely glorious.
