How have we already alienated the entire blog?

I'm sure the wrestling references didn't help.

No, I think we just need a set date to get our momentum back.

We're now at twenty-three managers and that guy RebusRankin has been hanging around. Not bad given that there's been no real pitch yet and no attempt to explain this to newer forum members.

Question: Any thoughts on reviewing the trade veto process?

Ugh. As a previous commissioner I say ugh.

I think I'm going to attempt the whole "I'm not going to make any trades and just take the BPA" angle.

Funny thing is, in retrospect, if you do this, in most cases, you end up with a better team that way than making all the trades.

Of course this doesn't apply to me since I make spectacular trades but most of the time its true. 8) ;D

I remember I tried that BPA thing my first CB draft in 2010 (Kobe followed by Ray Allen in round 2)... and I got hosed.  Funny, the more I think about it, the more it probably could have worked out as a good 2-3 pairing.

The criticism forced me to deal Ray in a package for Marc Gasol (before the '11 season).

The more I think of SO and KC pairing up the more I can't help think they are just being Thunder Buddies because they are afraid of teams Rondo and I or Roy and I might put together.

The first time I saw this, I literally couldn't stop laughing. In my apartment, by myself, chuckling like a mad man.

I am in unless we start next week. I would like to do a team up this year.

Oh and for the record, I dispute the 2010 championship won by SO. I had the same team in 09 built around Howard and only made the Semis. I call an for a revote on 2010.

I still believe I suffer in voting due to an anti Canadian bias. AntiCanadianism, its real but nobody wants to discuss it eh.
