Are those times EST? 

Yes

We're going on Somerville Standard Time here.   

Are you originally from Somerville, because we played them every year for our Thanksgiving football game. Go Arlington!

Ok then. I'm on Quincy Standard Time which would be very very similar

Started a poll to gauge what draft schedule works better.  Please vote if you can.  Please comment in here, though.

I assume the first time is for the rounds 1-5, (and the even rounds during the 2nd week) and the latter times are the odd rounds 7-15?

That's correct.  In Week One, each round will be divided into two sessions (picks 1-15 one session, 16-30 the next).  Week Two will be speeded up and each round will encompass one session.

Not originally.  Been here almost 6 years now.  Native of Worcester.

WASHINGTON - News today has filtered out of the front offices of the Wahington Wizards that they are once again changing their name as the Washington Wizards was deemed to be a "lame ass" name by their new owner, nickagneta. After much contemplation and suggestions, the franchise's new moniker will be the Washington Boxers. New logos and uniform introductions are rumored to be forthcoming.

just my 2 cents, but i really think that unless you change team names to an old team name (i.e. Washington Bullets, move OKC back to Seattle..., etc) folks shouldn't change team names.

It's hard enough to keep teams straight w/o all 30 teams being something completely different....

that said the OKC Angry Pickles were awesome last year and the Tehran Lakes seemed amusing (though they did move again to Las Vegas IIRC).

Not trying to be difficult but ...ummmm.....yeah, my team, my name. Sorry. And I say that with all due respect and I am not trying to be a pickle, but it's the Washington Boxers!! I even reserved that right with Dons before picking my team.

Big news out of the Nuggets camp.  Stay tune to Tanguay's twitter.

[Donoghus]

Concerning the changing of team names, I have no problem if you change the nickname OR the city.  Just don't do both. I'd like to keep some remaining identification

So if we receive the Celtics does that mean we can then trade the franchis for another and picks?

No trading of franchises for any compensation.

No trading of franchises for any compensation. 

Not even for 100 TPs, given within 10 minutes of the trade?

Hmmm...since only 2 or 3 of the owners can even pull off something like that?
