    Sorry, No thanks.
    I e-mailed you a counteroffer.

    mduke, do you have the ability to control player positions?

    If so, would you be willing to make reasonable positions changes?

    For example:I have two guys that can definitely play Guard on my team, but are listed as forwards in Sprewell and Finley.

    mduke,

    I don't think you should change the player positions from the ones listed on cbssportsline. We all have to deal with players that are borderline, and everybody is going to want an exception. In my instance for example, I have Duncan who could be listed as a center and Lorenzen Wright that should be listed as a center as well. If you want the league to have credibility and match the other league (Bob Finn's) then I suggest you don't start messing with the positions given from the onset. I for one am strongly against it.

    OK, then I guess that everyone should vote on it.

    i dont have a problem with players have multiple positions as long as we are being reasonable like a finley,mcgrady etc..whether or not you want them declared one or the other before the yr or they can flex between both it doesnt matter the point scoring doesnt change

    I'm with chrisjent - don't go changing this now. (although I do agree that Latrell Sprewell can play SG - I just think changing this now would be to late - had we done all this before the draft I would have agreed)

    VJ, it doesnt really matter any way, since you start 8 guys anyway, you only need 2 G's, 2F's, 1 C, and 3 fo whatever position you should choose. So you can either work out a trade for another guard, ( I might be willing to trade TMac for one of your F's), or just start the max of 5 F's, 2G's, 1 C.

    chrisjent, the rosters are already on the cbs site. if you go about half way down the page on the right, it says: CommBoxes. Click My roster, and it will add your roster to your league home page.

    mduke-

    Thanks I had been trying to sign on to the Clutch City league that I guess wasn't working. BTW, Anthony Mason wasn't on my roster. I obviously won't use him this first week, since he still hasn't signed, but can you check that out?

    Mduke-

    It's still showing that we have the ClutchCity2 league on the CBSSportline site. Could you dissolve that since we have cc.net up and working?

    FYI to Everyone-

    Each team has to have its rosters set to 8 active players and 4 on reserve. It won't count your points otherwise. The deadline for the first round of games is 10/30.

    + another guard, another forward, and 2 utility
