Everyone wants to be Boston and no one wants to be the Lakers, Sixers, Knicks and sometimes Heat.

But, once someone wants to change teams then everyone wants to change teams and things get nuts. I then have to figure out who gets to change their names first in another lottery to decide who gets to change their team first and what team they will select.

No.

Let's just go with the way the game is done and everybody embrace the team they get to run.

I'll be whoever.

There would be no need for a lottery, imo. We could just create new fantasy team names.

the Zion Kings
the Tacko Tuesdays
the Area 51 UFOs
the Queens Kings
etc

There are plenty of reddit threads with ridiculous names like these ;D

Anyway, being a commissioner is already a time waisting job. I'm OK with the existing team names. No problem whatsoever.

I would like to join if there's still a slot.

I mean, I may not have any internet for long with this Manila lockdown and all, but until then, I want to play.

I think you have my email. You can always just email me you draft lists if things go down, my friend.

If you don't, I will send it to you.

Welcome and TPs!!!

Thank you, Master Nick. This should keep me off the worries for a little while.

I mean, what good is a CB Draft without someone who's doing the unexpected, eh?  ;)

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
