This version is much better, reminds me the trip Noah took with Phil in the Mushroom Valley where they also opened up their phones to check the comments on RealGM about them and lolled the shİt out their minds and zoned out of reality

One or 2 BATs ago, he'd be late 1st to 2nd Round mostly. These days, he'll be Top 10 EASILY.

His versatility is what makes him golden.

Yes, in our Suns Premier Fantasy League, he went 5th and it shocked everyone, as this is before the season and it is a one season game.

He may have even gone higher in our Dynasty draft, based on who I couldn't believe dropped to me with the 8th pick.



That's what we call great co-management. Strong start!

I guess you are just talking to me? There is a thread on the NFL General Board with my thoughts. It doesn't bother me that much since I don't live in San Diego, but when there was talk about rebranding and if they changed the team name and uniforms that would be tough because at that point it wouldn't feel that same. They tried to change the logo already but they got so much negative feedback they abandoned it. They have some of the best uniforms in the NFL so there is no way the should change them...if they were to change the name and uniforms I think they lose a ton of fans that don't live in SD as they would be hard to identify with. Even in Austin Texas they have Chargers watch parties at bars and there are like 50 crazy fans that show up...and when I don't go and go to a different place there are always fans I run into.

I was surprised to be honest, don't follow them too deeply, but thought every thing was going fine in SD. New logo got trashed on so hard lmao..that was too funny. I wonder what their next attempt will be. They need to keep the colors though, that powder blue with the yellow is a clean look.

I think Brooklyn Yards played the last time we did a snake draft and missed her first round pick. I'm sure there have been a few other rookies that have signed up and then missed their pick also. J4remi missing his pick is definitely unlike him though.

DuRAT from 5th pick what an haul

Sorry fam, I woke up yesterday and my dog was dead. So I went on a full blown bender because of an animal. My head is hit, but I got Russ and after using top picks on F's and C's in the past; getting the guy playing the best basketball in the league imo to build around is a nice start.

Feel like this is a 7 player draft and I have 8th pick.
At 8, I feel theres 3-4 guys on the same level..

Are we allowed to trade in the first round?

yo remi my condolences that sucks man. Not easy to deal with.

Russ is a great pick. Was a little surprised ctorres went with Durant over Westbrook with a chance to jump in front. But top 5 went as the top 5 should have IMO. While defense is very important you need to be able to score. All 5 guys can carry a team.

The point guard position is deeper in talent than the small forward position.
