fantasy basketball league
last season 6 guys from this site braved an 82 game season in a fantasy basketball league. eighty two games. it was harrowing, but i think a majority of participants survived.
anyway, now that basketball is scheduled to be played again, it's a good time to inform everyone who can read and click here that the league is back again. league id is 37941 and the password is mavsmavs. the tentative day for the draft is december 18th at 2pm central. i'll gladly move the day and time.
if we could get more than 6 people this year, that'd be super.

never played Fantasy B-Ball before
HOw does it work?
Here’s a theoretical play from 2010: Snap. Tony takes 7 step drop. Tony looks left at Miles, who is doubled, and looks right to where Roy Williams should be…but instead sees Colombo on his back and a Defensive End foaming at the mouth jumping over Marc’s carcass. Tony proceeds to run like hell and look for Witten

Now, if somebody doesn’t agree with that, that’s cool. I also don’t agree with the fact that I don’t have $10 million in my bank account. But the fact that I don’t agree with it doesn’t make it any less true.

I'm joining in!
I didn’t know that there is a league last year.

Just realized my tense is wrong here.
My team name is Dirkmeister by the way.

Well, hello there
I refuse to be on topic in this post; I just wanted to say that I miss you <3
"I don't want no damn welfare pencil!"
LISAAAAA!
Internet hug! <3
How have you been? I’ve missed you too, and everyone, really…can’t wait until the season starts so we can all hang out again.

gonna join this year, hopefully I do better :)
let the daggers rain
@brentonang let the tweeting begin
For the sake of being on topic
I’d join but I’ve never played fantasy sports and I’m sure I’d be horrible since I would let personal feelings get in the way of important stuff like stats. I refuse to be the Andre or Taco or Bro Lo of the group (I hope people here watch The League and understood that reference) and set you all up for easy wins…
"I don't want no damn welfare pencil!"
bah
It isn’t a hyper competitive league. We’re all there to have fun. Besides, Gabe is in the league. He’s the designated loser.

If I join, it will be me instead
I’m sure of it. But I’ll think about it, since I’ve always wanted to take part in one of these.

I was just having sex with some girl in a Prius. I love having sex in Priuses, ‘cause you’re not only having sex, you’re saving the environment too.
I'm a pansy firefly. better?
I love Taco!
And I will end up being the Taco of the group since I caved and eventually joined.
How have you been? I miss you
"I don't want no damn welfare pencil!"
You should spend the first two weeks of the season not eating anything that came from Mother Earth..
I’ve been good, but busy, just bought a new house so dealing with all of the nonsense that comes with that. How you doin?
I'm a pansy firefly. better?
I'm doing okay, thank you :)
I’ve been super busy with work and I sort of got into grad school. I say “sort of” because it’s only a certificate program (for professional writing), but it is part of the grad program and the courses are obviously graduate level. Hopefully I’ll do well; I love to write but I haven’t gone to school while working full time, so we’ll see…wish me luck.
Congrats on your new home :D Oh, and you should add a Santa hat to your JJ icon!

I'll be changing my team name, but defending my title!
The Mark Ass Tricks only had enough game for one season. And yes, we definitely need more than six teams. The rosters and waiver wire were ridiculous. We should also minimize autodrafting, for that is just no fun. Good luck to all——-
It must be fate
I tried to join and it wouldn’t let me! I’m spared from being the designated loser.
"I don't want no damn welfare pencil!"
Yes, I do have one
Here is the message:
There is not room in this league if all teams from last year return. To join, get the commissioner to increase the maximum number of teams, or remove teams that will not be returning. (Error #638)
"I don't want no damn welfare pencil!"
I'm in
11 now, somebody else join! This should be fun!

I'm in...
…I see what the stat categories are for the point system, but is there a breakdown of the actual scoring system. Can’t wait! I might suck, but the worse I do, the more shit-talkin’ you may hear from me. ;-)
