    Hey, no one is claiming MJ. :D

    Here's what we are going to do though... we will hold a lottery of all the non-playoff teams, and the winner gets MJ. The same will occur if Dennis Rodman comes back, with the exception that whoever gets MJ is ineligible.

    Seems a bit unfair. If MJ is a Wizard, shouldn't he go to the Wizards?

    Cool beans. But why not just throw both players into the upcoming draft talent pool?

    I'd actually rather have Rodman on my team.

    You think? I had told everyone all summer I was doing a lottery if he came back, and people seemed to agree. We don't have the typical rosters anyway, so I was planning on doing a lottery.

    Anyway, do you guys think he should go to the Wizards by default? Let me know, I'm open to it.

    But there was that post a long time ago that you said Michael was my property. :(

    Hell no, he shouldn't go to the Wizards automatically.

    This is a fantasy league. It's not like DEAN controls the <b>real</b> Washington Wizards. If Kareem-Abdul Jabbar suddenly decided to come out of retirement to play for LA, I wouldn't expect to get him on my team by default.

    Really? If you're serious I'll take your word for it, and award MJ to you. I didn't think I said that, but if I did, then I'm definitely not going to go back on it. This would eliminate a lot of controversy anyway, and make it a very clear solution.

    I'm currently searching the history for it. It will surface even if I have to check every single thread.

    Cat, remember when I asked how I would have him if he came back and you said that you unlock Mj when you beat him in 1 on 1, you then joked how you easily do that with Stevie. Then there were the other times where I just kept on talking about the Wizards will have Bark and Mj, well being half right wouldn't be that bad. :)

    Found one of the threads with mj inclination

    I think Dean should get him back, actually.

    The league began with everyone having the players on the teams they picked. I don't think anything has changed now, except that Dean has lucked out.
