The all-stars are back for another season

fill them up with some Big Macs, and let them roll.

I must say my team had the best 3 on 3 team last year with LeBron, Dwight Howard and Manu Ginoboli... with Tyson Chandler/Chauncey Billups as the 4th man... the rest of the team I had a problem with.

FRET NOT, waitlisters!

4 more spots opened up.

I think this *may* be it...because moving the league to the max of 20 means dilution of the league, and let's face it: You'll be dredging the talent pool with the likes of Oleskiy Pecherov, Travis Diener, and Steve Novak. ;)

holy moses batman... I need to refresh my memory on the 8th-10th men on teams.  Can we just start choosing NCAA players, and use their stats by about the 10th round of the draft?

^ which brings a good point, why is there no NCAA college basketball fantasy leagues?  I would be much more interested in that instead of NBA.

Mayor, I'd assume there is no fantasy for NCAA for the same reason video games are nameless, people would be making money off the student athletes.

except for that we have March Madness brackets, the biggest money-maker for Vegas.  And most games have lines that you can bet on, so gambling on college sports is legal.

They don't have names in video games because they don't have a players association, I thought that was the reason at least.

My guess as to why there isn't NCAA college basketball fantasy... people just don't know enough players, since they constantly change.

Actually this year was the first year that COlleg Fantasy football leagues coudl use real player names, My guess is that Video Games aren't for behind, I'd look into a college fantasy league

It saddens me to say that I will not be able to do the league because I will miss the draft due to a blackhawks game on sunday.  I figure in a big league like this, missing the draft is costly!  So I will relinquish my spot to someone else

Please make sure that you've exited the league. Sorry that you couldn't join us this year. Maybe next year!

Bump for someone who can take rob's place!
