This was a bust with the weak voter turnout, but I still enjoyed selecting my squad and writing my players up. I’m down to do it again, maybe next time we can sim that shit on What If? Sports or something.

Wow, what I originally suggested!

We've come full circle in people seeing I was correct about everything!

I'm going to bump the threads one more time, and add a similar thread on reddit to get more votes into the pool.

That’s what we did when Ghostown ran a fantasy draft. I figured that’s what we were gonna go here when I first joined up, but then it became about having a vote on other boards.

It's nice when they are ran smoothly. This one was kind of rough.

Word yo.

I think that's a good idea.

I would say a sim league under a salary cap as established by WhatIfSports would be a neat place to start...it would be more challenging than simply building super teams.

But whatever happens, happens. Not a huge deal with way

Salary cap for sure. I’m all for that.

I might not be posting much this week (family stuff could pop up...or out), but here they are.

I'll let them run until 8PM ET, then tally the votes and announce the winners (Gold, Silver, Bronze style) :)

Congrats!
We had to kick out a GM for bad behavior, and thus his players were eliminated from the draft pool (including Lebron and Russell), so some heavy hitters aren't represented on this board.

I never join these caring if I win or not. I just like the idea of researching old players, looking up stats, googling clips on YouTube, shit like that. Sometimes I end up learning something. For example: before this draft I had no fucking clue who Alvin Robertson even was. But after googling a list of DPOY winners and looking for recipients that were wing players, I found out about this dude.

So overall it’s an enjoyable experience, nerdy but fun.

If we do it let’s consider maybe 2-3 commissioners. That way we can establish rules, and one of the two or three commission leads can keep the draft moving, cuz motherfuck if the last one didn’t take forever. Also, no more Griff cuz he’s way too fucking sensitive and will just quit halfway through again.

I'm down for whatever, so long as our resident drama queen isn't included in any way.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

Don't worry guys, I'll cuck Griff before the draft instead of during the draft so he doesn't bother us.

I did the best I could with his broken ass product and broken idea, but it was cool to think about team-building nevertheless. I'll do the reddit thread soon to get more votes in play, and tally them up probably Sunday.
