GC's Yahoo! H2H League 2014-15 thread: Yahoo league is live!

[barefacedmonk]

FWF's team plays out of their minds in the playoffs....just like real life playoff teams. One ass whooping and one oh-so-close loss, I'd rate FWF as the favorite here (not trying to be modest, I sincerely mean it). Plus the league is at it's competitive best since the three years I've been around.

Also, if history is any indicator, the last time a team was proclaimed a "hands down" favorite during the pre-season - they lost in the semis. I think it was TTTF. 

It's tough to win it all consecutively. There is a reason we haven't had a team that has done that since the league's inception. And if I go by league's history as mentioned on the league's permanent website, only two GMs have won the golden hardware twice - TWW and Mk.

I'm happy my team's stepped up in the fake playoffs but it's not exactly something I can count on, or take much credit for.  Both of my semifinal wins against Hobbs and Blake required some awfully good luck to squeak past teams that probably should've beaten me. 

Based on some trade talks I've had I think I value durability a lot more than some owners do, though.

As a former owner of Mo Williams, I believe it's decent return for him. Three-four seasons ago, I couldn't even get a future second rounder for him.

You should step up your hype game, Mk.

I dealt him last year for .71302 Pat Beverly's

In the end that trade's wound up being P-Bev+Danny Green (and Chris Johnson) for Draymond Green, Tyler Zeller, Humphries, and Shabazz Napier.   Time will tell how it pays off but I'm ok with the return, especially if Draymond steps up the way I hope.

BREAKING:  Danny Green faces widespread criticism after taking goofy selfie at Holocaust Memorial:

I trust the commissioner will do the right thing and set an example for the league by cutting ties with Danny just as soon as BFM uses his waiver priority.

Why wait for Mr. Gainesville Silver to act when you can trade him to me for a second rounder?

My lawyers are better than Sterling's. You may want to re-think this

So, I see a thread named "Turner is not going to fool me". I wonder how KWhit is taking that

Because he's on GS's team now, and it seems unimaginable that the commish would show approval for that kind of reprehensible behavior by not cutting him as soon as I have the top waiver spot.

If Brook Lopez stays healthy Turner can go back to his philly production and I won't worry about being fooled or not.

Well, this is embarrassing (first Danny Green and now....). I thought Turner was on your team.

Two posts. Two similar replies. Came out looking like an idiot.

Perhaps better than Sterlings... but better than THE LEAGUE'S?!?!? I think not:

I flipped him to Toine's Boys last year for an injured Brook Lopez before Turner was traded to pacers.
