What would people think about a policy of not voting for your own teams.  That way teams with multiple GM's dont get an advantage and it also forces you to be more truthful

I don't think that makes a lot of sense, as it skews the voting.

Dons has a plan for voting, which he'll announce shortly.

What do people think about having teams with multiple GM's only submitting 1 joint vote per team? AKA teams each support one comprehensive league vote as well as one press conference for their team?

If the voting is site-wide, why shouldn't we be able to vote for our team?  Edgar and I aren't lock-step in the analysis of the rest of the league.

Question: How do you guys feel about Portland and Phoenix, both relative to their respective divisions and relative in comparison to each other?

Wrong thread. ;)

They both play in fairly stacked divisions, though.

Every team has their critics and you and Roy will be among them for other teams Mr. Blogger ;)

Folks shouldn't take this all too seriously -- I think Dons playoff system sounds like it will even things out.

Besides with everyone vying for 2nd place....;)

Thank u for finally accepting...CrotorNats 2009 Champs!!!


Left myself wiiiiiiiiide open for that one Mr. Blogger :)

Just kidding.

Fairly even actually.

I'm fine with either suggestion. Site wide participation would be nice, but as I recall in certain rounds of voting last season we had fewer voters than GMs.

If anybody is selling a 14th or a 15th, the CrotoNats will pay 10 TPs.

Bump. ;)

Sold.  And paid.

You're welcome to have 15.22 from the Nets.

Do we need Dons official stamp of approval on this?  I know how serious these 15th rounders are,lol.  I'd love for him to reject the trade and then I get to keep my pick and the Tommy Points  :P

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

Haha.  I think Dons is fairly liberal about approving straight cash deals for 14th and 15th rounders, especially since he's on his blackberry.

Do you take the over or under on 1.5 of the previous 3 picks playing in the NBA next year?
