re-post


We are starting a new 30 team CelticsBlog draft set to start Monday August 4th.


This is the same as we did last year.  30 teams. 15 rounds.   A lot of trades.


You be the GM and create a team.   (for those who are new or missed it last year, this is not a draft for fantasy league)




Now, there will be a couple of changes.

1) I am no longer a GM.  I am for this season, the Commissioner.  I will approve all trades.  I will keep the draft moving forward.

2) You can put together a group (2) of owners to run one team.  Good for those who can't be on as much

3) We will choose winners.




There are plenty of ideas the staff have discussed and agreed upon.  We will let you now what these are later as well as getting your input on other league running decisions.




But for right now, we are taking a list of posters wanting to participate.  There are only 30 teams (some of which are already taken)


PM me if you want to throw your hat into the ring.  If you played last year, include what team you controlled last year in the PM.

What are some of the teams that are already taken? And did you get my PM?


I got the PM.  Not sure if you will have the same team.  Just wanted it because I can't remember everyone that was in it last year.

When do you find out if you're in or out?

wdleehi, I've sent you a question about a joint ownership between cordobes and I and which team we'd wish to own.  I really like the idea we had, and I hope that that will enter into your consideration when awarding teams.  Are you not yet answering questions about the subject of what teams we can own?
We're the ones we've been waiting for.

I have sent PMs to 20 posters that have already been selected.  if you didn't receive a PM yet and have sent me your name, it doesn't mean you are out or can't play.



But at this point, I suggest you find another poster to team with and resend. 




We have been selecting the names we know.  Especially the ones that have a high post count or a good track record in previous drafts and fantasy games.  We are trying to avoid players dropping out in the middle without warning (it happened a lot last time)




It is still open to posters that haven't PMed me yet.

I'd be willing to get in thru a joint partnership if it means that I can get in. I'm extremely interested in the league.

You guys are in for a real treat if my ownership group's plans come to fruition.  If all goes according to plan, I'm willing to guarantee a 41-0 home court record.
We're the ones we've been waiting for.

If anyone is interested I can put the rosters into NBA Live or something and go into a season like that or whatever. I thought someone said earlier they wanted to do that last year but no one got around to it. So if the people managing the league are interested in someone doing that, I can.

(Yea, I actually have the spare time to do so... I'm only "officially busy" for six hours out of an entire week and only have a job in the winter.)
