  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
It was decided that since as long as I am a GM in the league, I will be under appreciated and prohibited from winning by forces both foreign and domestic, it was no longer in the best interest of the site to have the draft.

Either that or an announcement will be made shortly. One of the two.

But I had a complicated plan to draft Delonte #1 overall and then trade him to Edgar for Edgars entire draft. ;D

People got tired of me winning every year.

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

I think the delay is due to the fact that the people running it this year are just afraid of these guys:

haha -- had the same thought as the OP and PM'ed a few mods... sounds like things are being discussed and maybe early-to-mid august.

I think the biggest thing was the Commish job got to be a bit much for 1 person.

And--and this is just my personal recollection--some of the bickering got a bit out of hand last year too. I'd encourage everyone to be more ubuntu this year. :D

Celticsblog Draft.....the most wonderful time... of..... the year

So a few months ago I bought these earphones on buy.com...they're allegedly noise cancelling. Apparently there are two types of noise canceling ear phones. There are well made earphones that cancel out noise around..and there are ear phones that have these little plastic cups that are poorly made (not the cups. very flexible and comfortable. Seriously, great job rca or whoever)..but incredibly loud.

And coincidentally I was trying to watch "The Warriors", but regrettably the disc cuts out after 40 mins (thanks again netflix.)..in any case I had the computer volume turned up all the way, but the apple DVD program only turned up slightly.

Soooooo anywho...I press play on the godzilla video clip and my left ear is now bleeding and I smell burnt toast.

I blame Redz. And Godzilla. And the Ultimate Draft.

And David Kahn.
