Sorry Snate. Just noticed it's rotisserie. I prefer h2h leagues. Thanx for the invite.

Head to Head in basketball...lame.

I published the league, so hopefully we'll pick up a few more people. If they pay the 10 bucks, they are eligible for the prize at the end, if not, it'll just be highest finisher that DID pay.

3 People just dropped in, so now it's full at 12. Perfect. That was easy. I doubt any of them decide they want to pay...so whatever...it'll just be top winner that has paid the fee. Actually, to tell you the truth, hardly anyone has paid anyway, so i might as well just return the money to those who have.

What do you want to do Snate?

How many people have paid?

Who are these new guys?

Do you want to hold off and try and set up a league with just guys we know?

I just opened the league to the public to fill the last three spots. It was filled almost instantly...just cuz guys are looking for drafts tonight.

Only a few people paid so far...so it's not a big deal to return money, but I think guys try harder and pay attention if there is a 100 bucks in it at the end if you win. Not a lot of money, but enough to motivate slightly.

I don't really want to waste my time with people that are going to mail it in. These new guys will probably use it as a mock draft and never check it again.

How many people have paid?

How many of these guys do you know?

I know 9 of 12.

Fun draft, although I really need an intervention if I draft Mike Dunleavy Jr. again next year.

Db: I'm in for the $10 if you can get a quorum.

I just paid my $10 last night.

Hey DB, I want my $2! (plus the remaining winnings)

Great end to the season. If it had gone on another week I'd have lost the lead. It feels good to have finally been able hold off SFZ and win something. I still remember the baseball league a couple of years ago when I managed to take a late season lead, only to have SFZ stampede right past me for the win.

Congrats to everyone on a fun season.

Congrats Mattk. I could have managed my roster better down the stretch and lost one point by a single steal but I don't know how I would have made up the other point.

Hoops has become my favorite fantasy sport over baseball because of the tradeoffs inherent in roster management. I'm looking forward to another go next fall with a full set of DSP owners and no outside nimrods screwing things up.

I'd like to be in your fantasy basketball league next year. I have been playing fantasy basketball since the mid 80's so I will try to not be a nimrod.

Hey Matt...PM me your email address again, I lost the PM somehow when I was checking it at work. I've got SF's hardcoded in my paypal account, I've paid that guy so often.

dbdynsty25 · Post by **dbdynsty25** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 12:45 am

And BTW...just a reminder. 3 of those "nimrods" never paid to get in the league...so the total was $90. 75% to Matt and 25% to SF. What $2 are you talking about Matt?

sfz_T-car · Post by **sfz_T-car** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 2:09 am

I don't think I ever paid for this league. My attitude was just f* it after nimrodgate.

Check your records dB. I'd hate to see you take a loss for running the league. Mattk can have the whole kitty.

dbdynsty25 · Post by **dbdynsty25** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 3:22 am

Yeah, I'll have to look into it.

dbdynsty25 · Post by **dbdynsty25** » Wed Apr 25, 2007 4:47 am

Heh...I only got money from six people. Matt, Snate, Myself, Jaeger, Carlos and Pat. So I've got 60 bucks...and Matt's the only person who won that paid, so the money is all going to you Matt. Like I said, PM me your addy again and I'll send it over.

I knew a few people didn't pay, but only 6 did? Oh well, it was still fun. Did it cost anything to set up the league?

The $2 was a reference to an old John Cusak movie

Ahhh...that damn kid on the bike...lol. Now that's hilarious!

Yeah...well, three of the guys were "nimrod outsiders", and SF didn't pay as well as two others (Babymakers and Bombers). So yeah...60 bones.

I'll pay Mattk directly. What's your PP?
