    Okie Doke, Manny I guess I'll bump it up to 15 for you ;)

    Our draft lottery will be announced tonight, At that time, Whoever owns the 1st pick can make his selection whenever. There will be a Draft Thread posted, That is the offical pick thread, post your pick there since this is an offline draft and I am the one who inputs the players picked.

    So how will the draft thread work? Will there be some sort of time limit imposed? It looks like the BobFinn draft took over two days to get through the first round.

    i think a 24 hour limit per pick rule should be imposed...

    plus i like how the BobFinn draft has an outsider picking for those that don't get their picks in before the time limit runs out...

    just some ideas for the commish.

    But you guys have it easier as you have expert advice in that thread :)

    But seriously - it was a holdup due to one participant not being informed that we started. We now got a replacement picking for him until he gets back, or if he doesnt then Puedlfor will take his spot. So if you take away that holdup you will find that the first round didnt take all that long. And anyway - there is a lot of time until the season starts, and if you just make someone pick for you if you are going to be away for a longer period this should move along nicely.

    ESPN's rankings blow. They have Glen Rice ranked ahead of Mashburn and Grant Hill for god's sake.

    Having some problems with getting in.

    I went through with my registering team and all that, but at the very end, it is telling me this message:

    "Errors: League is full "

    moe, can you look into this?

    Thanks

    Hey Moe,

    I'd love to join if ya'll have any inclination to bump up to the original 16. It would make the divisions even if you're looking to even that out. drop me an e-mail, nemers@aol.com...Thanks!

    Hey guys, if there is any way to add an extra spot, I would really appreciate it. If you can, email me at rockets34life@excite.com. I tried to get into Bob Finn's, but I lost out. It would be great if I can get into this one. Thanks!

    This IS how you get into BobFinn's. The BobFinn Fantasy Basketball League is the same bunch every year apart from the winning alternates from the minor league. And too think last year we were only 10 teams in the minors, or wait, we were only 8!. Maybe someone needs to create the BobFinn's Minors Minor League! :)

    If my count is right now you are 17 in case moe opens it up again. Man you guys will get slim pickings. Almost as slim as a real GM :)

    Moe Maybe you should just make it 18 and wait for 1 more and then start it, then you will not get bye weeks.

    Jent - I had thought I sent your an email, But anyways, I'll let you in to make it 16 even.

    nwo - sorry looks like you were just too late to get in, You would be first on the list should anyone drop out.

    we ready to start???

    question: if a player is listed as two different positions on Yahoo (like Duncan is both a forward and center) can we play them at either position in our league?
